    One of the biggest draws for me is summer car all year, property is also dirt cheap compared to Edmonton, my parents house in Powder Springs is 300k, a similar house here is 750k+.

    The variety of cars here is very interesting, mind you we have to conform to the 15 year rule and the federal gov. is cracking down on RHD cars. I have been very lucky to drive some interesting cars thats for sure. I was actually very excited about the GTI-r's as well, but it didnt live up to my expectations.

    There are a few websites worth checking out if you have a RHD addiction lol, and I was thinking about bringing a RHD EG sir down there with me and leaving it registered in Alberta, same as I thought about bringing an EVO back to Edmonton lol.

    Its pretty crazy what you can get into some cars for, and the RHD cars really hurt local guys selling LHD FD's, 300zx's etc the value was nearly cut in half.

    www.importconcern.ca (check the broker stock, and parts, especially the wheels, if you're a wheel whore there's some good stuff)

    www.tyeeimports.com

    There is probably another 20 importing company's, but those are the most picture intense.

    Ya... I feel bad for the people here that dont know about WAHO, it's sad really, we dont have any good mexican food here either, tacotime is as good as it gets lol.

    ..GIRLS YOU SAY... I did notice a lot of pretty girls while I was there at christmas.

    -Health care isnt really free, trust me, and I pay around 40% income tax between provincial and federal, they take sooo much money off my paychecks you wouldnt believe it.
