Default Zing! Hello!

Hi, I'm new! LOL kinda. I finally got my s2k, except I had to gon a little jaunt to get it.

I had trouble finding a clean one around here in my city, and finally saw this one in Penticton, BC (Canada). I gave them a call, made some deals and...

I flew down to Kelowna, BC yesterday, got picked up, checked everything out, bought the car, and then started driving my ass home.
It was a good 1000km drive, and it went by relatively fast. Just a whole lotta singing, and mountain carving. Then, when I'm about 15km away from home, driving down Yellowhead Trail (local highway), out of nowhere a freaking cat pops up. I couldn't do anything but keep going straight. All I felt was a ltitle nudge, then a bump - bump, and saw it spit out of my car at 120km/h. zing! and no, I didn't stop to make sure it was okay, because I knew that sure as hell it was dead as a doornail. Later I checked and there was no damage to the car, phewf.


details: '04
43,000 kms
Pretty much mint, except some blemishes in the 3m coating on the front bumper.
It also came with a set of 18" WORK XSA-02C wheels.
Now hre are some pics.


OKAY, First pics were about 40 minutes out of the town i picked it up at. I was all liek WOAHH I LURV THIS CAR, and then my dad called and I had to talk to him so I pulled over.


Just random drivingggggg with the top up.

This pic was for my GAYspace. :laugh1:

oh hai car.

Random waterfall ish on the side of the mountainnnn

Road Road Road... Snowy ass mountains

Snowy ass mountain closeup.





I wanted to pull some icy hot stunna shit with this one. I think it would have worked better if I were in focus.


FACESLAP for driving 10 hours.

I pissed on this sign outside of calgary, several cars honked while I was doing my deed.

Old ladies and cute daughter in the back waving and picture taking, they followd me for around for a bit too smiling and wanting my junk.


Then I smoked the cat.
LOL



I alsomade a most righteous music video part way through the trip:

P.S. if anyone wants to complain about cruelty to animals, you should know my choices were

a) hit the ditch to avoid a stupid cat at 70+mph.
b) hit the car next to me, and potentially kill a family, and perhaps myself...

Give her a good wash, I'm sure she needs it after that drive

Enjoy your new ride.
