I just picked up my Type R not even a week ago and its a very clean one. Today we are having REALLY bad storms and hail in the range from marble to ping pong to baseball size! I stood with a huge panel of wood and blocked the incoming hail, it stung a little but no damage!! The sound was incredible....still waiting to see the outcome of my EK race car.

I usually have to park out in the shit, but i made my parents park to the far left and far right of the 2 car garage so I could squeeze the banana in there.









that sounded naughty.

yes we will have a 2 car garage shortly after we move into our house, either that or a work shop building big enough to fit the protectable vehicles in it most definitely.

why if it was under the car port. the wind was blowing towards the car from the back, not the side.
