and it's gone..

Out with the old..


In with the new..


Extremely bittersweet, the woman teared up when I sold it actually, but time to make some room for the future.

Yeah I wouldn’t miss the CT too much after an upgrade like this.

It's an LS. It may be the LS460 that's in his signature, since the CT isn't listed.

Hi all and thank you,

it it is a LS. Super comfortable but eats gas though I knew it would as part of purchasing it. The CT is sorely missed and it was completely trouble free. My reason for this was wanting a bit more comfort and while the CT is no sports car by any means, having it lowered and the lip kit etc I just didn’t want to keep dealing with the crap roads in Chicago all day. Especially after a long day at the office I just wanted silence.

The LS provides me a great commuter car and so far I’m quite happy with it. The only thing as said that I miss, is the fuel economy. Depending on which job I go to, either the office 15 minutes away, or reporting to post about an hour away.

I figured if I wanted speed, I would just jump on my bike. If I wanted some car that was low and I could track, I would just take out the s2000.

I wont disappear from here since I find this group as one of my favorites though I wish it was a tad more active.

Also with me being 30 and ready to settle down, it’s about that time. Both of my careers make me feel like I’m 60 (and then some) on most days.

If you feel old, just take the S2000 out more. Haha That's what I do.

You know what, I did - however i didn't want to have to deal with the air suspension and the price markup for me just wasn't worth the overall savings. Secondly is the size of the 600L over the 460 to me wasn't worth the price difference as well. I would also look like a runt in it :P (not that it matters) given that I'm not a big guy by any means.

I miss my CT already..
