got my first ride today.... it was SWEET let me tell you. only like 5 min. but this kid had it sideways n all over the place. he has no fear... actually i think he was just stocked to be driving a rwd w/ power vs. his fwd cobalt (that is pretty damn quick) aha. i want one, but i still think the interior lacks a little. and the thing in a boat!!! but then again, our cars kinda are too!!

Now that there's some used G8's around I'll have to test drive one. I've seen some for around $25K but I thinks that's a little out of reach for me right now. Hopefully they will be $20K or less next summer, then I could probably swing it.

I love doing them, but cannot afford to do them.. I just spend like 800 on my new tires and mounting, etc... I cannot waste that...
