God, I haven't been around in forever. I guess I could blame my job for that, haha. Anyways, most of you have seen my 94 Ford Aspire (yeah, E-102's 94 Ford Aspire is mine) and if you have been following, I traded it in Why? It was getting a tad bit expensive to maintain, and I just needed a new set of wheels to roll on. So, without further ado, I would like to present my 03 Kia Optima LX (V6 bitches!)   Gotta dig the Gundam bumper sticker!  Seriously, I could probably fit a dead body or two in that trunk. I know, I fit comfortably inside of it.  Nice huh?  Yup, that confirms it. Kia's can have a V6  Yeah, that blew my mind too. Electronic trunk AND[/b} gas door release.
I can't count how many times the cruise control has saved my ankle from those long drives.
I love that gear shifter. The gear shift button is on top, and it just feels so right.
Oh yeah, that heater and ac work great. And the stereo. It might be stock, but it has some killer bass to it, which is useful if I wanna listen to rock and block out that annoying mexican music.

You're doing it wrong.
You're not supposed to drive half throttle, it will hurt your ankle. Just floor it everyware and you'll find that you won't need cruise control. xp
Sounds like you're really happy with the car. I love little luxuries like cruise control, electronic windows and all that. It makes the car experience so much nicer.
Congrats. 3nodding

I would floor it, but the cops down here are real hard asses.
I didn't get it mostly for the luxuries, but because it has a V6 and just fells right when I drive it.
On a side note, I've raped a good number of ricers with my baby. Only time I actually punch the car is on the way home from work on Loop 375. But I know for one thing, I have a list somewhere, I wanna make my baby more powerful.

A pair of good fog lights can save your life, and get you laid.

I didn't mean anything by that. I mean Kia's are alright car, it takes quite a bit to break them. Me and my cousin tried very hard to break his Rio.

Update time!
Someone tried to steal my baby while I was at work, but the guy was a bloody idiot. I was doing my rounds at the clinic when someone walked up to me, asking if I could pop open his car door. I told him i couldn't due to I didn't have the equipment to do so, and then came the subject of which car was his. He pointed to my car, and I laughed. I told him there was one problem with his situation. The car he was pointing at was my car, and needless to say, he ran out of there like a bat out of hell.
Then a couple weekends ago, I went to the local strip for the first time with my car. Needless to say, I won $300 due to most of the other racers had puny Civics. I left early because the competition was lame, and I'm glad I left. Mostly because a hour later, the cops did one hell of a bust because someone was carrying a huge load of meth.
I need to get out of this town and go elsewhere to race, I swear.

*Blinks.* I hate Civics, but I want to know what you have done with your car. Stock for stock your power to weight ratio is worse than my old Accord V6's, and that car ran a 15.8 best stock (that was with cold weather, and I had a once in a lifetime launch, C&D could only muster a 16.1). I know you're well into the 16s with 30 less HP.

Otherwise ******** congradulations man, 300 bucks is nothing to scoff at man. That must have been your lucky night. whee
