Just got home after driving for 9 hours straight, its 1:15. The car and everything is great, only sh*ty thing is that I got pulled over on the back for going 82 in a 65 zone . Cops were pulling people over like crazy. Right when I got pulled over another cop pulled over someone on the other side of the road. Also right after the cop let me go she didn't even go 10 feet and she turned on her lights and pulled another person over, literally within 10 seconds.
O well, after everythign still well worth it.

Peydidy, did you get see Jordan 'perform' his act?



Did you get pulled over on the 5?
Damn, I used to drive 100 in daylight, and 90 at night, while dodging the damn trucks, that pass each other going 56 mph, and take up both lanes.

What a screamin' deal, ~5 grand, and it's a Cali car, so no problems with smog and sh*t.
It'll be interesting to see which car becomes the beater in the long run.
Ha! M111 power vs. M271 head problems.
All you need is ASP pulley and you'll never look back.

I did basically the same trip to weeks ago in my sedan driving to irvine. The differences I felt was that with the sedan I could put it on Cruz control and let go of the wheel and chill. With this car I had to hold the wheel because it would pull to the right, I think a quick alignment will fix that tho. Other then that the seat heaters was defiantly a plus on the coupe, but it was kinda hard dealing with the different audio set ups because in my sedan I have the AUX, my subs, 9 speakers and all of my CDs I forgot in the sedan. But once I get all the parts I need the coupes audios going to be kicking.

I didn't get pulled over on 5, I got pulled over buy the mohavi desert 20 miles before 5. I forget what the name of the high way was I think it was 99 but I am not sure. 2 weeks ago when I took 5 back from Irvine I was going 90 the hole way and didn't get pulled over or anything. The worst part is that I have to drive all the way to the county that I got the ticket in for the court date and all which is 4 hours away . And ya i think I got a great deal, defiantly happy with my purchase. And the sedans only got like 68K on and is 3 years newer, but we will see which is the most reliable engine (lets hope there both very reliable and don't give me any issues haha)

Why drive?
"Trial by declaration" my friend. If you lose request a "Trial de Novo" and then make the drive, or just pony up and do traffic school.

The 05 should not give you head issues or anything like that, just don't baby the thing. My 05 has almost double your mileage and is perfect. I'm sure they'll both be reliable.. that coupe looks like it is in great shape.
