Still a nice shade of green. I want to know where all the colours for cars went, soooo many in the 90's and early 2000's and now it's like you can only get black, white, silver/grey, and sometimes blue or red. Then they're usually some bland rendition at that. If I ever convince myself to sell the Firebird instead of letting it sit and collect dust whatever I get will be a nice colour, every car I've owned with exception of the Firebird has been red or white. Then it's black, the absence of colour. I want a nice blue, teal, or preferably purple. So far that points to the M-Edition and Special Edition Miata for the most part. I really like the '94-96 M-Edition and '99 10th Anniversary as well as the '00 and '03 Special Edition. That and there was also Twilight Blue Mica, Midnight Blue Mica, and Black Cherry Mica that are nice and were on regular models.

Today I've reached a new level of hatred for the sperm donor that masquerades as my father. I like how he can be a better father to the ex-stepdaughter he adopted than he ever could to me or my brother. He always said he wanted a daughter, so I guess he's just making good on that. I have half a mind to get onto that atrocity called facebook and post right on his wall for everyone to see, "Would you love me more if I had a vagina, since that seems to be the requirement for you to be a father." It'd be one thing if in addition he made a newfound effort with us, but does he? Hell no... Who needs him anyway, had my mom and grandmother. This song might as well be his theme song:

The best thing you can do is to succeed at life and shut him out and never acknowledge him in any way.

I guess there was just this stupid part of me that thought he'd change one day, well he did but not for me or my brother. Which is what just really makes me hate him... So much so I'm highly contemplating changing my name now instead of waiting until I get married to take their name, as there's no way in Hell I'm going to continue his name...

I want to know where all the colours for cars went, soooo many in the 90's and early 2000's and now it's like you can only get black, white, silver/grey, and sometimes blue or red. I kind of prefer the darker IJM on the ‘98 Supra over the DJG on ‘96-97. I really wanted a white Supra but in two years of searching, never found one I liked. Back when I was 16 I came across an IJM Supra on eBay and fell in love so after white, my second choice was green. Have you seen some of the colors Toyota is coming up with for their cars these days? While I don’t like Cavalry Blue on the ‘18 TRD Pros or Voodoo Blue that will be on the 2019’s, but I love Lexus Ultrasonic Blue. Structural Blue is kind of cool too but I feel like if it takes that long to develop, it’s not worth it. I liked Quicksand, Cement, and Inferno TRD Pros as well. I like some of the shades that Lexus is putting out, but I agree that there are too many silvers, blacks, and whites. In case you get the itch ever... https://www.giordanos.com/shop/ We've considered that on more than one occasion. It’s just not the same without Storytime with Chris™️. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

I think I remember seeing one blue on the Lexus RC F I sorta liked, but within recent years the only off the top of my head I really liked is the Jazz Blue Pearl used on the Challenger my mom has. It's a nice deep blue that gets a kind of almost tealish look in the pearl when under the sun. If I had more money I'd be tempted to get a GTO just for this colour:

A long time member of nc.org flipped his MR2 three times in December and walked away from the accident. Here's what he had to say. CRAZY!!!
It all happened very fast but my best assessment was a combination of the bite of the LSD and a slick piece of road caused snap oversteer when I got on it. For some reason when I tried correcting the car just lifted sideways, which was a surprise since I have all the braces and fattest anti-roll bars you can imagine. When the front hit the concrete base the car was thrown into the light pole and rolled three times after that. All I could do was hold on to the steering wheel as tight as I could and count the rolls. I can't recall when I lost my grip on the steering wheel. It had to be pulled unto the truck because one of the rear wheels was stuck against the strut. It did start right up and ran perfectly and after I put the spare tire at the rear I could roll it up further into the garage. Amazingly nothing leaked anywhere. -------------------- 2000 GT-S 6 SPD... SOLD! |
