I’ve sold my 2002 Honda CBR600F4i, and it’s now in Minnesota with it’s new owner. For those unable to keep track, I’ve sold 3 vehicles this year (the 94 Talon, the 97 Accord, and now the bike), and purchased 2– the ’76 Datsun 280 Z, and the ’03 VW GTI. I used to move a [...]

Besitzen Fahrvergnügen
07Oct04Well, not quite yet, but the plan is to go pick-up my “new” 2003 Volkswagen GTI 1.8T 5 speed on Monday. I found a 2003 model with only 8,600 miles on it, with all of the options I was looking to get. Originally I had planned to buy something a bit older than this, but [...]
Car Hunting Sucks
30Sep04Well, I took the day off of work to go look at cars, and it’s been rather unproductive. Basically all of the cars I wanted to check out had major flaws in one way or another which I did not want to deal with. I mean what kind of person trashes a new car in [...]
Minibikes Invade Boston
22May04I’ve seen humorous videos of the mini crotch rockets on motorcycle websites in the past couple of years.. and now they are selling them in parts stores and even truck stops. Insanity. Looks like the peeps in Boston are none too pleased about them. The sparkling chrome mufflers, sleek fiberglass bodies, and ventilated disc brakes [...]
Supercars Are The Hotness
17May04Yesterday I went to my friend E’s for her graduation from her first round of many years of schooling as she’s working towards being a doctor. One of her friends who owns an AMG Benz was there (I wish for the life of me I knew what the model was), and we got to talking [...]
Back In The 80031
11May04I’m finally back. Doesn’t it always feel a little strange to be home after having a completely different life for a couple of days? Overall, everything went really well. I flew out to Sacramento on an 8:40 AM flight on Saturday, May 8th which arrived there at a bit after 10 AM, and got back [...]
With both the nice Spring weather, and the ever increasing price of gas, it seems like I’m starting to get a lot of queries about how to go about getting a motorcycle license, what bike to purchase, etc. Given that, I thought I’d put up a little post for aspiring motorcycle riders, slightly biased towards [...]
Goin’ Back to Cali’
28Apr04The current owner of the 280Z called me back the other day, and said he had changed his mind again and wanted to sell the car. We struck a deal, and today I sent him a deposit on the car.
Yes, The Rumors are True
23Apr04After 6 years of owning DSM’s, I’ve pretty much decided that the perfomance level which I’m now used to (because of the sportbike) is way too expensive to do in a DSM, so I’ve decided to part it out and sell it. Someone should be here this weekend to pick-up the rolling chassis, block, head, [...]
The Car Crash You Can’t Prevent
20Apr04No matter how careful you are or how many defensive driving classes you take, this is something you can’t prevent.
