Very True. One good thing that comes from all of this is I've managed to save a substantial amount and have many parts in for the car that Just need to be installed. Not buying the little things (aka 100 here 400 here) actually makes a huge difference.

Haha... Negative on the Geico. I might need to though with everything coming in and the plans. Anywhere I can save would be lovely. I seriously need to meet with Samson about everything as soon as I get the car back & get it inspected by a friend of mine.

Default Just an update

Since I been MIA... just wanted to say the GS is at Lexus right now getting the blessing from them before I accept it back. I'll probably get it back sometime this weekend or early next week if it passes and I accept it. From what I heard there's a little hum somewhere that wasn't there before but its getting checked out. Keep your fingers crossed for me...

Redid the entire head and front end of the engine basically. Genuine did it so I feel good about that. And also lost my kintuna holder, dented my trunk, pass & driver side door which they will fix. Servco had it for a couple weeks. They fixed a whole bunch of crap the other place didnt. I got a brand new radiator, timing belt, cam gears & what not.
It does run really smooth, and servco fixed a bunch of vibrations & rattles the engine had. Heh... I'll tell you guys about the whole ordeal this weekend.
