  1. I don't use any kind of lubricant on the outside part of my vehicle because I don't want it on my paint. I do need to get out on a pretty day and halfway put my top down and lube the rubber in-between the roof panels. I get a lot of rattles in winter.

    You might want to check on Zaino products. Their wax leaves no residue and you can use it on rubber. That might help you.

  2. Wow. I know when I had the scratch on my quarter panel fixed, the guy that owned the body shop told me not to be disappointed if the metal part didn't match the rubber parts because they handle paint differently. There is no color difference that I notice anyway.

    Do you wax your car regularly? I'm just wondering if your paint is fading under that hot Florida sun.

  3. Back when I was driving my 95 Z28, gas prices soared and I was feeling the pinch. I filled it up with regular. I hadn't driven 2 miles before it sounded like someone was shuffling a deck of cards under my hood. Thank goodness I worked for an auto parts warehouse so I could go in the back and get a bottle of 104+. I never got stingy with my gas again. I guess it all comes down to the corny cliche....you gotta pay if you want to play.

  4. Welcome to LOC and best wishes for your training and thank you for your service.

    Are you sure such a big block will even fit? My suggestion, leave the SC alone and find an old Mopar to put that bad boy in. Have your lux and a hot rod. JMHO

  5. It is kind of like the reason I quit taking Motor Trend. It isn't really fun to get all excited about a car you could never afford. It is kinda like someone on Weight Watchers going to Cinnabon,

    Make more exciting cars that the masses can afford.....like mine.

  6. ahhhhhhh...purses!

    I always said that I feel sorry for my hubby. Not only do I love purses and jewelry, I love Borla exhaust, superchargers and custom hoods and rims. Teeheehee....I guess I found the only fella that would put up with that.

    What is wrong with the 2 year old granite?!?!?

  7. For our 30th anniversary David took me to a Louis Vuitton store and let me pick out whatever I wanted. When I told the clerk that it was our anniversary, he had someone bring us champagne and little chocolates with LVs on them. Made the experience of buying a handbag really over the top. It is an experience I will never forget. Being treated well is really nice.

    My Lexus salesman was an !Removed!. Worst car buying experience I ever had. Funny....it is the most expensive car I ever bought.

  8. Mine told me to turn the wrong way when I went to visit my daughter in SC. It was pouring rain and pitch dark and I had been driving for 10 hours. Thank God I had Googled a map and I knew it was telling me wrong. I pulled over and looked at my phone and got going right again. When I got to where her house was, it told me that my destination was on the right. There again, I had Googled her house and knew it was the last house in the cove. I pulled in the driveway of the house I thought it was and told Allison to come look and see if a car was in her driveway.

    It helped me....but I never totally depend on one. I always Google a map before I go somewhere.

  9. Too much grill action going on for my taste.

    And you need to add....STARTING AT $85k. No telling what it would cost after they add all the destination charges and dealer mark up crap and the options that you would want.

    I'll stick with Lexie. ;)

  10. You are going to laugh at this, but I promise it works. I showed cars for years and my glass was always crystal clear.

    Go to Auto Zone and buy a product called The Absorber. It is a fake chamois in a plastic tube. Rinse it out good and wring it as dry as you can get it. Now....wipe your windows down. No cleaner needed. Nothing will get your windows cleaner. I use it to dry my car too. I keep it in my trunk. Great product.

  11. We used to have a place here. It was an income tax place called Mo Money. They cheated and bent the law to get people back more money than they should. They finally got busted a couple of years ago. Every January, they would play BY FAR THE WORST COMMERCIALS IN THE WORLD!!! Lots of hollering and screaming. They would play them over and over during the news. I was never so glad to see someone get busted and put in jail.

  12. Hi Zishan! Welcome to LOC. What a beautiful car!

    I haven't done much modding to my car at all. I paid for the F-Sport package because I loved the rims...so I definitely won't be changing those! I did Plasti-dip my rear emblems anthracite to match my grill and rims. I also ordered and F-Sport shift knob that I LOVE and of course my radar detector. Other than that....I love my car just as it is. Please keep us posted on your mods.

    Dark emblems would look great on that white car IMHO.
