Random sidenote, awhile back I mentioned that AP2 at the Casey Honda dealership in Newport News. I stopped by and got more info on it.

Car was traded in by some military guy, it's an '07 with 19k miles on it and they're asking $25k.

- Front bumper is Rhino-lined and missing grille
- Sideskirt area is also Rhino-lined right below the doors
- Softtop is in *ok* shape, it doesnt look like it fits 100% so I'm guessing it's a replacement (not sure)
- Seats are OEM
- Interior looked to be in decent shape

This is not a bad look at all.

I loved having TE's on my old Accord. I kinda want ones like this for my Mazda.....

Although I hate Mustangs, I do have a soft spot for the newer GT500s. There's an 11/12 black GT500 w/red stripes in my area, and it really is a great looking car.

I might try to. Not sure yet. I definitely want to but whether I actually get there or not is another story.

So, my parents house was broken into today between 10:30am-8:15pm. They trashed the house, but did not take any money, laptops, firearms, just 2 bottles of pain pills (my dad just had knee surgery Friday).

It makes me sick to my stomach.

Keep your doors locked, deadbolts set, and alarms armed. People are getting desperate.

Haven't heard a thing, that sucks though. 1 dead, 1 injured. Yikes!

That's messed up in so many ways. The things people do...

Sorry to hear that, hopefully they catch those Motherf**kers,...... One thing, i hate is when people either steal or damage other people's property for no reason.

I was driving home one day a few weeks ago and had one of the newer Boss302s drive past me. I was beside him in traffic for a few miles and got a really good look at the car. It's actually not bad at all. I looked up the specs, and it ain't slow either. The GT500 of course is even more beastly. A guy on the ISF forums actually had a modded GT500 but traded out of it for an ISF because he said the GT500 was too much of a track car and not nice enough for DD duties. Still, he cut some nice timeslips with it at the track.

That's awful man, sorry to hear that! Having a burglar come in to your house brings about one of the highest feelings of violated short of actual physical contact, or so I've been told. I've only had a car broken in to, and that's enough to get the blood boiling. The fact that they took pain pills and nothing else is pretty curious though... it seems they knew exactly what they were looking for. From my prior experience in the law enforcement world, most cases of break-in like this were not at random, unless there were a slew of houses on the same block that were also broken in to. Unfortunately, given that they took stuff that they're not going to be able to pawn, chances of catching people are slim to none. I'd bet they're punk stoner teenagers. Lucky for them your dad wasn't home at the time, or else we would have probably been hearing about a funeral.
