I'll give you my '73 2002

Yes it did.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Vince-The Roadside Mechanic
09/16/2014 at 23:45

It is sufficient, much like the horsepower of a classic Rolls.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Your boy, BJR

if I gave you my Bimmer would you change you name to ButtholeBeetle for a week?

Of course I do. One day I'll own a clean Type-R...

Sitting 10 feet away from me awaiting my trip to Michaels tomorrow to get them framed.

do you like other Hondas?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Your boy, BJR

Probably not. I don't like Bimmers very much...

09/16/2014 at 23:55

Well If I framed them I would have done it at micheals, so you saved me a trip not paying me to do it! What type of frame job are you getting done?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > desertdog5051
09/16/2014 at 23:55

What kind of engine is going in it?

Your boy, BJR > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/16/2014 at 23:56

I fucking hate them personally.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Your boy, BJR
09/16/2014 at 23:57

Yes I do. 'Ludes, CRZs, CRXs, Del Slows, Legend, and TLs.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Denver Is Stuck In The 90s
09/16/2014 at 23:58

Probably custom. I'm thinking one long frame, with a raised mat around and between. Facing each other, of course.

Thats gonna be cool! You should post it when its done

Will do!

desertdog5051 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:04

Have not made any decision on that yet. Will have to see what works out best. The stock 1 liter (+-) may stay. Have an MG engine that could go in it. No final deal has been made on the car yet, so no big plans until it is a done deal.

If you could have one car what would it be?

Your boy, BJR > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:05

civic? Pilot?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > desertdog5051
09/17/2014 at 00:05

how about a K24 or VQ35?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > ly2v8-Brian
09/17/2014 at 00:07

My old GS-R. I still miss him to this day...

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Your boy, BJR
09/17/2014 at 00:08

I love the Si. The Pilot can burn in hell.

ly2v8-Brian > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:08

First car?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > ly2v8-Brian
09/17/2014 at 00:08

Indeed. I put that car through a lot.

ly2v8-Brian > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:10

I know that feel. I miss my first car (truck) too.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > ly2v8-Brian

What kind of truck was it?

desertdog5051 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:11

As I said, no done deal yet. I would like to use the stuff I have to keep costs down. Those are both great alternatives, though.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > Your boy, BJR
09/17/2014 at 00:12

Why? You actually like the Pilot?!

ly2v8-Brian > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:12

2000 S10 2wd. I loved sliding around backroads with it in the winter.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > desertdog5051
09/17/2014 at 00:13

Understandable. But if you're gonna do a project, do it big lol

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > ly2v8-Brian
09/17/2014 at 00:14

That does sound fun :)

Your boy, BJR > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:16

I own a 2004, and I gotta say it's genuinely the single best mode of transport ever made.

just wanted to stop by and say hello

ly2v8-Brian > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather

It was, and I'm positive you did somewhat similar shenanigans that gives you that nostalgia feeling.

How you doing buddy?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > ly2v8-Brian

09/17/2014 at 00:26

trying to sleep but can't ever lol. I am going to need some help with Beetles thia time next year so your my first choice for quick questions.

My week is normal, I have a huuuge surprise for OPPO on Friday (oppo sticker ready in hand) then headed to COTA Saturday for the big race. Heeeeeyy, we ask you questions lol.

implying anyone would turn down a 2002

So, how's the new-ish job going?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > EL_ULY
09/17/2014 at 00:43

Are you planning a Beetle for you or the Mrs? Either way, you can't go wrong!

And you getting a new car? :D

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > For Sweden
09/17/2014 at 00:43

I would. Would rather have a 510.

desertdog5051 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:44

Oh, I forgot to ask. What brought you to Oppo?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
09/17/2014 at 00:45

Its going pretty well. I didn't pretty good last month (finished at the top of the new hires, and mid pack with the veterans) but this month I'm off to a slow start. Ultimately though, I've proven I can do the job of I have the resources, and people are noticing.

EL_ULY > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:48

Yeah for my wife. She wants a late 2010 ish coupe. Most likely turbo. As for the surprise.... its a surprise

NotUnlessRoundIsFunny > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 00:53

That's awesome! Congratulations. Glad you're getting your feet under you in that gig. Good to see one of the good guys succeed. :-)

09/17/2014 at 01:01

Back in 07 or 08 I think it was, I was looking up information on the USDM Civic Si vs performance Civics around the world. Jalopnik had run a piece talking about the European performance Diesel Civic. That brought me onto Jalopnik. At that point in time, there weren't as many problems on the FP, and people talked about Oppo pretty openly. So I got the invite and made the jump :)

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > EL_ULY
09/17/2014 at 01:03

I believe by 2010 they were all 2.5s, as that generation was the 1.8t. And those had gone out of production by then. Try talking her into a 2012 with the new body style if you can. It'll save you a lot of headaches.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > NotUnlessRoundIsFunny
09/17/2014 at 01:04

Thanks buddy! Yeah, it's not for everyone, but I do enjoy it!

EL_ULY > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 01:05

I dig that shape soooo much.

desertdog5051 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 01:09

Yep, as the FP got bigger and bigger, It sent a lot of folks this way. Which is a good thing. I prefer to have normal commenters and not have to sift through 147 others.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > EL_ULY
09/17/2014 at 01:09

The new one? Yeah man, it's so addicting. There's a brush-stroke outline of the top that VW uses on promo material for it. I want it as a tattoo.

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > desertdog5051
09/17/2014 at 01:20

Agreed. I hardly ever check the FP anymore unless I see it shared and it tickles my fancy.

EL_ULY > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 01:32

I dig it also. I was accepted to go to the VW training center in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. It was 6 month tech training thing but I couldn't move at the time.

I'll let ya know this time next year for some quick advice. Gnight buddy

Lol, couldn't pass this up :)

Favorite Audi?

Taste in music?

Anywhere in the US that you'd rather live than NOVA?

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > jkm7680
09/17/2014 at 07:54

Good list! My favorite Audi is the TT-RS, I'd love to have the 600hp Stage 3 one Matt Farah reviews on Tuned.

I love most kinds of music. The only ones I really don't like are dubstep and electronic.

And there are many places I'd rather live than Northern VA. Every day I think about moving back to Winchester, or going somewhere South down 81 like Roanoke or Christiansburg.

jkm7680 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 07:59

Nice responses!

I'll listen to pretty much everything but dubstep, and classical :)

BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather > jkm7680
09/17/2014 at 08:13

Very nice! And classical I'm on the fence about. It's not something I can sit down and listen too, but it does have a time and place. I like it when it's well weaved into movies or something like that.

jkm7680 > BugEyedBimmer - back in the Saddle Dakota Leather
09/17/2014 at 08:21

Yup, agreed. I can't listen to it anywhere but in a movie.

Your boy, BJR > buford-t-justice
09/17/2014 at 09:20

This is 100% what I was thinking of when I asked.
