i would like to meet their clients. i have alot of stuff i would love to sell to people without good credit, who don't like to check things out.

then their one lovely female sales associate proceeded to tell me how the new eclipse is faster than the evo and porches.

all in all, a real gut buster.

but their service dept. has never given me **** about anything on my car. not that they should. it is all very minor at this point.

Merry xmas to everyone.
car salesmen disapoint me almost as much as the cops that pretend to know stuff about cars...

Nice present!

I got a watch I have been looking at but would never buy myself, I am cheap like that.

Got the wife a 335i, good lease deal right now, and traded in her 01 330Ci.

Sell the gift card on ebay.

A 55 gallon drum of race gas is about $200. Coincidence? I think not!

Sell to fellow car enthusiasts for
$5.00/gallon Evo owners
$6.00/gallon Most other cars
$8.00/gallon turbo Honda discount

Rinse wash repeat

Buy an Evo in six months.

HAHA that is funny I like how you want me to charge the honda guys more ha so I think the only way i would do that is if i got a evo out it

So what about a new head unit at best buy ?? I really want to use the ipod on the road to

the grinding noise i have been hearing in my car is the wheel bearing. apperently when the guys at emage did my car the cross threaded and stripped 2 of my 5 lugnuts, and broke my wheel bearing in the process.

apperently they can't get one of the lugs off either it is on there so tight.

they wouldn't let me take it home, they said there is so much wobble in the wheel it is unsafe to drive.

apperently this is what was causing problems with my brakes too.

now i don't know what the **** emage did to my car, but it was perfectly fine when i took it in to them, except for the clutch.

i am livid right now.

now i am going to have to pay out of pocket to get all that **** fixed, and for a rental car.

i can't even believe this.

how do you even cross thread lug nuts and put them on so tight they won't come off?

also i noticed a good amount of chips and cracks in my wheels and brake calipers.
