    Default Sad news

    Well for those of you who actually know me and Kelly, then you probably know what all we had done to my car. Well I no longer have the Xb. On June 12th we got into an accident in lawrencville, well the frame got twisted and the insurance company totaled it out. It was going to be $8900 to fix.

    If you know anything about the xb, then you know that the area behind the rear tire is not much. Well thats were we got hit on the passenger side. It didn't look like much untill I looked back at the pictures and saw that the driver side of the car was wavy. But now everything that I had will now go onto Kelly's Xb and we will be entering it into Nopi this year.

    Well anyways, just thought I would let the people we know the bad news.

    P.s Oh yea there is some good news though.. Kelly and I are finnaly engaged, not sure when the wedding will be, most likely after we finnish college.

    Anyways Thanks for reading.

    Tim

    i looked at that car and it's nice...and yes i'm sure everyone will call me a spoiled bitch as soon as i say this but,

    my parents only buy toyota or honda and they agreed to buy me a car and gave me a choice of a civic or my tC, and the new civic is just fugly.

    yea, SI dosen't look bad but it was out of the question (because of insurance) , and even if it was a choice, the interior is still ugly.

    the sunroof is HUGE! I love how the whole top is glass, even the backseat has an opening to look through the top.

    As far as the tubo/sc goes, NO MODS on this one.

    My first car, 03 civic, I had all kind of money into and then I totaled it to see all of that money go down the drain. My 2nd car- 03 tacoma that I lifted and put tires and wheels on...just to have the suspension go to hell and then I gave it to my little brother so all of that money went to the trash also.

    I plan on leaving it stock till the day i sell it. It came stock with a nice system with an ipod connection and 17" wheels, thats all i need

    Crap, one less xB for my parents to complain about.

    I like them and it always starts a big argument.
