Anything east of NYC is Boston. Just like anything north of NYC is Upstate NY.

I would pay good money to watch your late 2007 STi and a 2013 GT3RS duke it out on the track for a few laps. I understand the nostalgia but let's be realistic here...

It was a simple question. The STI was sold from the Dealer in December. I thought someone here might have it. I didn't think people here treat their cars like stolen ricers. I guess it's like pimping with Suby owners. Once she's gone, she's dead.

GT3rs has nothing on my STI on the track. I would kill it.

I sometimes wonder how my 04 STi is doing. Don't really care too much about the others. Well, maybe the M3 or Supra.

I bought a 75 Alfa Romeo spider in 1984. I fully restored it. Ferrari red with black interior but tan seats and a saab radio. Sold it in 1985 in order to put a down payment on a house. Saw it in 1995 60 miles away in a gas station. Stopped and confirmed it was my old car. Owner came out and knew my name from the paperwork (only one owner in between). I then went to Zylas and bought some cheap Chinese tools.

I got 507 reasons, each one is a horse. It also has 470 lbs torque.
It's not a Mercedes. Different engine, trans, suspension, brakes, steering. Serious power. Great handling for a large sedan.

I hear what your asking, but doubtful you'll find it on here. Sometimes I do wonder who has my past cars and how they are.. but It's in the past and I've moved around. I got my car from the private FS threads here and enjoy keeping the previous owner up to date, but if it went through a dealer, they could have shipped it somewhere else, and then who knows.

You could try pulling a carfax with the old VIN, won't give you a name, but sometimes they do show what dealer/garage it's been serviced at- and you could try to track it down that way. Good luck.

Is your GT3 still a Beetle? It certainly looks like a beetle, same shape, body. configuration.

I guarantee you it wouldn't be the case with me. Your GT3 better have 500hp when you see me. My goal is at least 650 hp for mine.

An 08 e63? You couldn't get anything newer? That four blob headlight front fascia is definitely not my cup of tea.
