I luv the 2003.5 MSP!!!

Sorry to hear about your car man...thiefs suck, just a bunch of low life scums. It just hurts to see other mess with our cars, especially if you are the type that basically think about your car all the time, keep it clean all the time, and take care of it all the time. I don't know about you guys, but I freakin luv that rear spoiler, looks damn agressive... and the front lip...well...I gotta have that!

Hope everything works out for you buddy and keep "me update"...

The insurance guy is coming monday. I just took the car for a spin and it honestly felt really unstable above 100 mph. It usually doesn't. I hate to say it, but I guess the spoiler makes a difference.

The spoiler is there for a reason. Everyone doubts its functionality but it really does serve a purpose. You notice all the SCCA cars .... wings.

Thank the Lord for gated communities. I have a new house on the way that will be built a nice *ahem* "upscale" gated development. It will have two 7100 yard golf courses, a nice pool complex, tennis courts, great views, live oaks and cedars, some really cool hiking trails / biking trails, beautiful 1/2 acres lots and up, 12 ft Iron gates, 3100 acres, and 12 security guards. So I can't wait to get my new house done by next summer at the latest, Christmas at the earliest. Allthough I'm in a nice house/neighborhood now. I just like the thought of some dumbass punk getting a good beat down from security before the cops arrive.

This is slightly off topic, but it has a lot to do with the people being jealous point.

My friend brought his Celica to the boardwalk.. came back a few hours later.. and someone decided to take a (he thinks it was a screwdriver) and slash a line from the front of his headlamp all the way back to the rear of the car.... and when he reached the back of the car... it looks like the screwdriver was stabbed into the rear fender.. the kids paint is ruined.. his headlight is ruined.. his $900 graphics all have to be taken off to get his car repainted... and even if he wanted to put the graphics back on, he'd have to wait a few months for the paint to dry fully. So... it just goes to show that you can't have something nice without someone else wanting to ruin it.

An old pic of his car (before he got 18" rims) can be found in the banner of http://www.jerseyrice.com/

PS. the people who made that site are also a$$holes.

Damn, I didn't get this much sympathy when someone tried to break into my car and broke that plastic piece on the trunk where the lock is. Still waiting for that part, too ... they took my $108 but aren't in a hurry to get it to me.

In other words, I feel for you. I know exactly how you feel! At least I got the satisfaction of knowing they caught the bastards (and one even died in the car chase!).

This little shitty piece of plastic costs $108 ... imagine what they charge for the spoiler!

Yeh you're welcome.. by the way.. where was ur car at that show? Oh yeh.. it wasn't there. So instead of making fun of a car that won 2nd place at the Nitto Spring Nationals (what you call a "local show" on your site), maybe instead you should show us how nice you car is, instead of making fun of ours. By the way.. what's up with leaving notes on the celica and my other friends lancer?
