Default Goodbye to a good "friend"

See this post:

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=307861

Just wanted to also post in the NorCal section since you all have been my "car family". Thanks to all of those that have helped me in the past in building her up. The friends I have made on here I will continue to keep in touch with. I still have my IS300 and RX330, but my "modding" days are probably done.

Thanks again to my NorCal family.

One of my favorite pics:



Congrats to 98sscamaro....take good care of her Charlie and John!!! I know you have big plans for her...



This will keep me "entertained" until I decide what to do next...

You'll remember the Lexus big time when you start paying for repairs and maintenance on the BMW

aw man...i'm lost for words. I've seen that car built up over the years...every now and then getting mods at exact while I was there getting service....Glad to hear its staying in the CL fam.

Since this M5 is just temporary, I can't wait to see what you're waiting for.

Big J:

Thanks for posting. Yeah, it was time to move on......... Looong story.

You were the first CL member I met...remember lunch in Pleasanton? It was downhill from there!!! j/k.. The good thing about the build-up and such is that I learned a ton about cars and modding, but most of all, I got to meet so many great people along the way. You, Glen, Henry, John/Sandy @ Exact...the list goes on and on. It was just in April in Vegas we were hanging out again at a meet....what a difference a few months makes...

I thank you for your friendship and I will definitely be around these boards and please stay in touch. Will let all know what I eventually end up with, but for now, am having a blast with the M5.....
