is your house the same color as your car?

Rims are a couple inches too big imo. Tires looks better with a little bit of meat on them. Nice design though.

OEM tire/wheel size was 14". I like the 17s better which is why I bought them.

Also, lots of little stickers and vinyls make your car a thief magnet.

The vast majority of people here wouldn't have a clue what eXcelon is. The rest of the vinyls were custom-made for me by a friend who works in a sign shop and I'm not too terribly certain that anyone that sees stickers such as this:

are going to be in a big hurry to break in the car. Most people look at it and go, "A GEO?!? WTF???" and that's just fine by me.

is your house the same color as your car?

I never paid much attention to that until just now...and that house isn't mine. It's the neighbor of a friend of mine and one of the good Lord's least pleasant children. Maybe I'll ask her one day why she tried to match her house to my car although I'm pretty certain her house has been that color much longer than my car has. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I can offer no explanation as to why the ole biddy's house is that color. Gossamer is that color because that is the color that GM saw fit to paint it when it was new so when I had it repainted a few years ago I just went back with the factory paint color so I wouldn't have to have the doorjams, under the trunklid, etc repainted too. (GM paint code 72U, Crimson Cloak Mica)

She's short, brunette, beautiful, and other than that? Wonderful! Thanks for asking. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Won't happen. I'm not willing to invest the money into a lowering kit that's actually worth a crap on a car that isn't. The only thing I really have any real $$$ dumped on is the audio and it can all come out.

Good to see you back around.

Thanks. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Me too, brudah, but family goings-on stateside have prevented an escape as of yet. Besides....if I had made it back to the lovely seaside city in which my bride resides I would have been on here much more often than I am now! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Actually, yes! And getting a bit better mileage than it did when I first bought the car. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Wazzup, Big Bang?

Yeah...the Geo-Rolla decided (after 3+ years of my driving the absolute crap out of it and just before 180K miles on the odometer) back in late August '06 to throw a rod. I got lucky and got an almost complete motor off of ebay for $450/shipped. Only thing that was missing was the distributor and the alternator. Distributor I already had and the alternator I would have ditched anyway in favor of my rebuilt/upgraded one. It's all better now, though.

Peace! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I know what it is like to throw a rod. Did it in my 85 Nissan 300zx. I guess it didnt help the day before to see what the bish could do on the open highway, lol! Anyway was just driving and bam there went the rod. Took it too Armando's dealership, which excels in imports and they wanted like 3400 bucks to fix it, lol! That car spent the next couple years rotting in my back yard. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif I miss that car while I had it up and running. I guess you live and you learn.

450 dont sound too shabby to me. Glad to hear you got a for a good price. I have a buddy that has over 200k on a GMC Sonoma and he just dropped about 1200 bucks on a brand new eng with everything and he put it in himself. Runs good, but I just dont get why he spent so much on a truck that is so rusted out you would think it was just frame, seats and a new eng. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
