C55
Whats new guys?

Haven't been posting in a while because cars are blocked on our work's firewall now lol (I don't feel like bringing in my laptop) and have been going through a few interviews for new positions at the hospital.

I stopped modding the c55 for now. Last mod was my mom backing into it with her honda pilot and messing up the just fixed (new bumper) front end. Joy. I think I might get another front lip again, fix the cosmetic/electronic issues and call it a day.

I actually bought my 3rd car, a 1990 toyota corolla 5speed as a hypermiler car LOL. I'm floating around 40mpg right now driving it lightly and am going to mod it to become more aerodynamic and gas efficient hahaha.

As for the AMG's. I was offered a new position at work but am holding out for another one I applied for. If all things go well, I maybe looking to get a slightly bigger v8 AMG car...

Cheers!

Good to see you back around! I with you the best on getting the bigger V8 monster. If you do, I call dibs on the wheels and tires in your sig.... So freaking clean. For now, replace the busted lip and just hang out with your AMG brethren.

B/c you can just deflate, fold up, and put in trunk when done.

Hopefully we're in for some good weather up here in Seattle (finally). La Nina has been one nasty biatch. C55 in the snow was near hell. Couldn't get up Queen Anne hill, and had to beg for a hotel valet to allow me into their heated garage What hospital are you working at?

My ex lives on Queen Anne hill lol...I was looking to buy a place in lower queen anne but living 3 blocks away from an ex is no bueno.

I'm working down at Valley Medical Center...thinking of switching up to UW Medical after a year or so.

I decided to just replace it with an aluminum pipe instead of stainless.I'm more than likely not going to delete anything else because I don't want to attract anymore attention to the cops (even though I have a get out of a ticket license frame) and I'm happy with the sound and I more than likely wouldn't pass smog if I delete anything else.how do you like the sound?

The sound on your car is a little quite for my taste and mine hasn't been done yet. Next week!
