Default *wave* hello ?

hey... i had introduced myself on the main forum a while ago, but i figure since it's a more specific part of the forum i'd introduce myself here (and I have 3/28 circled on the calendar, so that might be it too.).

Name is brandon, from michigan... I have a 98 es with under 71k on it. Just waxed it yesterday, taking advantage of a lovely day in hampton va (and my last undergrad spring break )

Dont know where to start with this car. I'm quite satisfied with the car, hell my last ride was a dodge avenger... say no more with that. Only thing that kills me, being a geek... the technology is still in the nineties, but i haven't gotten myself to throw a double din inside the car because it just doesn't look as clean as i'd like it to. Therefore, no tint, no drop, no rims until i get the interior the way i want. Enough rambling....

ahhh my baby.






and there's some interior shots somewhere around here too.





Just kinda pokin my head in and being friendly.

Self-admitted geek....and a car with a TAPE DECK? Ouch, that makes all of us geeks look bad. You know that, right?

Anyways, welcome to the party. You're gonna have a good time.

And, if you really want to geek that ride with some technology, let's get together and talk about CarPC's. That's some good stuff there.

Welcome, I understand why you want a perfect interior, but even a stock Lexus of any year has a interior better then 90% of all other cars on the road.
