Talking Well I am back and Im feeling SMUG(GS 450h)....(update) modified hybrid? lol

For those bored at work Monday Morning, a special edition thread

Well after the AP Racing brakes didn't fit on my car back in November it was the final coal that lit to get a new car. Now I know the news and the debate forum here wants to scare you that the world is over and we should all hide in caves but it isn't.

Its been fun searching since I've become more knowledgeable not just about the cars I am interested (and not interested) in but knowing how the entire process works (thanks in part to the wonderful members here on Clublexus). Also being not in a rush is great and it might sound crazy but around the 2nd week of my Lent and browsing the internet for my new vehicle, it occurred to me

"how cool would it be to be gone for 40 days and come back in something new"

I KNEW I would find MY CAR by then. Weird, yes but I felt "it was written for CL". I'll discuss all the vehicles I checked out (1SICKREVIEWS to come) but here is a poll for you to try to guess what I bought. The poll will last 3 days and we shall see who guessed right. Lets have a nice fun welcome back celebration!!

I wanted to vote Acura so badly, but I decided to vote more legitimately.

I know you always have kind words for the G8 (and rightfully so), but I'm thinking you took the next logical step.... GS430
