Saw a Mineral Grey M4 Coupe today.

Lawd Jesus, dat ass. I wish that a Gran Coupe version was in the cards. No SR20 since I was driving and only had it in my sights for less than a minute; the pic above isn't mine.

I also got a few brief glances at a Race Red 2015 Mustang GT last week at college. I did notice a couple of people looking at some sort of paper that was placed on the windshield - maybe it was the owner and his GF looking at a parking ticket?

Is he parked in front of a driveway?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he is. I'd assume that it's his driveway.

mineral gray is similar to sparkling graphite, which is what my E90 is painted. I LOVE it.

Yo, AM3R! Haven't talked to you since my fall semester started.

What's this about an E90? I thought you'd bought an E46 and another car off of some kid.

Hey man! How's school goin?

Nah, I've been rocking my E90 328i, I was recently (September/October) trying to buy a datsun but it slipped away. I'll try to find a picture of it, my phone got reset a few weeks ago (why I lost my previous kinja) so I don't have many pictures.

It's getting hectic, since I'm in the last two weeks of classes before finals, but I'm managing it. You doing alright in your classes?

Yeah, getting a little hectic with work but powering through it.

Did you get to enjoy the weather we got in the DC area today? I almost washed my car.. But it getting dark at like 4:45 stopped me.

The agenda for today is studying for a mid-term that's on Thursday, fighting the urge to not study, and catching up on sleep. The drive back home was quick at least, as I tried out a different route that I'd heard about.

Busy as I am, the weather was nice today; I've heard that there'll be rain or sleet by noon tomorrow, though.

Since high school, the two things I always have to fight myself to do are studying and working out lol.

Traffic was pretty bad all over the place last weekend, but I wouldn't have expected any better on thanksgiving/Black Friday.

Over break last week, I decided that it would be a good idea to start watching one of the anime on my Crunchyroll queue.

I'm now a few episodes into Sword Art Online ; I resolved to not watch any more episodes of it before my mid-term, but I may defy that resolution in the next couple of hours.

Haha, I've promised myself that I will NOT get into any new shows until after Christmas, or else I'll just spend all my time binge watching.

Hey know anyone looking for an E36 M3? Found this and it's been in my mind all week. I'm not a fan of the color, and the miles are really high but it seems like a very clean car for a great price. http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/cto/477417…

I don't know anyone looking for an E36, but that looks damn good. I wish I had the money for it.

AM3R shamefully returns > SonorousSpeedJoe
12/01/2014 at 22:44

Yeah it looks better than some E36's with half the miles. I don't know what it is about the DC craigslist, but I rarely find clean cars, and they sell fast whenever I do. I only saw 1 nice 240z in the area, And I'm still mad I missed it.

Not having any money to buy a car means that I'm free to dream of buying a bunch of different cars. I've been taken with the idea of restomodding a ponycar, and there are a few Mustangs and Corvairs that'd suit that, but I haven't noticed any clapped-out 1st- or 2nd-gen Camaros and Firebirds - it seems like the GM cars from that era that have survived up to now are very well taken care of.

I've been seeing a bunch of S13s in my area lately, and I wonder where they're all coming from since they were pretty much extinct around here.

I would love an old pony car. A resto modded mustang would be a great weekend car.

That's actually why I want an S30 Datsun. Easy to fix, and still pretty cheap to buy. I wanna pick one up and learn to wrench on it, so I need one that's in decent condition.

I agree about learning to wrench by restoring a cheap older car. This Mustang caught my eye a few weeks ago.

Oh wow, definite NP if it all checks out. First gen mustangs are awesome and parts are extremely easy to find, what's not to love?

Yup. This '65 and '67 seem to be in much better shape at a lower price, though, and there are some perfectly restored Mustang IIs, early '70's Mustangs and a Cougar XR7 in the featured listings that range in price from $2,400 to $7,250.

I don't remember seeing most of them... is it normal for folks to dump their projects in the winter months?
