A Pic, not a good pic, but none the less a pic

All this talk about proving stuff, seems easy enough. I will start. I no longer have a digital camera (long story), so I scanned some real photos. If I can take the time and make the effort others must be able to as well. I do not believe that one must own a certain car to talk on the message board. On the other hand I think if one claims to have a certain car they should really own it and be able to prove it.

Anyways,

I claim to have a 13 year old Honda Accord, however I cannot prove it at this time. Rest assured, I am not lying

I was talking with a friend about this site the other day and reviewing some individuals sigs and all I have to say is.....if these people seriously own the cars they are listing, god bless them- because nobody that I know of besides rap/movie/sport stars, CEO's, drug dealers have that kind of inventory.


Its painless people...if I can do it, so you can you (I hate F*ing computers). Anyway, the Snake is at the body shop currently- got slammed into by some stupid girl.

I think this "prove what you drive" thing is mainly from the younger members. The ones posting pictures seem/appear to be well under 30 when I check their birthdates. The young set (Generation Lazy) is all about bravado, bragging, bling-bling and self granduer and has too much emphasis on material things.

Older mature guys seem not to be worried about this "prove it" BS!

Thanks Enginyr,

I gladly accept the invite to be in the young crowd generation. However, demographics probably say that the average E55 owner is old. You know, going through a mid-life crisis or something. I hope I don't have to get tattos and piercings? HeHe!

Doctor Enginyr says.....dump the wife and start dating your secretary. E55 is a much better choice then my dad did. He got a motorcycle and crashed into the back of a civic, checking out chicks.
