I got a sinking feeling when I drove to the pool hall the other day. That place is packed with immoral little kids and low-lifes. There was also a Mexican dance hall next door. I actually had no fear of the mexi's, just the punk-ass kids in the pool hall.

People just suck.

orlando theft is BAD like 300 hondas in 9 months. i have all motor with bigger injectors and a beat ass body but im still thinking of selling it for somthing elese like an fc rx7 before i move there in fall cause i couldnt stand it being stolen. (i was thinking 240 but that is quickly becoming the new honda).

Buy a Legacy wagon!

I was never worried for a long time. But now that my wagon is fast, and it stands out at the strip, I lock it up in a garage. If I didnt have the "fancy" racing strips and stuff, I wouldnt worry. But dicks steal stuff, and vehicles that stand out are going to get fingered more often than dirty station wagons filled with kid crap.

isnt it illegal for anyone to own a gun in japan except law enforcement? And crime is dealt with harshly. Thats how it needs to be here. Start putting thieves on death row and that ---- will stop.

Well I have to live in fear, cause this may as well be the last Honda I modify. I'm sick of the scene, but I still have the itch for it inside. I know it isn't right to live in fear, but I fear losing a LOTT of money that was invested in this car and no way is insurance gonna cover all of it, unless I do declarations of value which will then in turn raise my rates which then would make full coverage useless due to the rates.

It's a toss up right now. The car was primered yesterday and ready for paint, but I got called into work. So it should be painted soon.

Oh and I would move to Japan, but as shitty as SoCal is, I love it here :-\

Murdizzle, you ever see those storage unit places that you throw crap in from your house or whatnot? Get a larger one and keep the rex there. :6 No one would know where it was held, you have a lock on that bitch and you could throw a wheel boot on it for extra security just in case O0 I knew a kid who had a ~11 second early 70's monte carlo that he was worried about getting stolen so he did just that. Haven't seen him in a while, but when he wanted to go cruise in it he'd pull it out and put his car in. Worked out nice, was only like $30 a month.
