That's my old car/now my sister's car in the background of some of the shots.. 99 Sable. Served me well.


My stubby antennae is in the mail [thank God], and sometime next week I'll be adding 2 Alpine Type R subs, Kenwood KAC-8101D digital 1000w amp, and the works along with it. Plan on upgrading to a Progress sway and maybe a decent suspension package at some point. K&N, intake, maybe exhaust [if I can find one that doesn't sound like crap].. nothing serious to the engine though.

yay!

oh yea, nice car :cheers:

[SlipknotX556]

Very nice!

My brother got a red 4 door mazda 3 back in May, nice little zippy car. But he messed it up, smoke cigs in it, now it stanks. He also backed up into a lifted F-250s trailer hitch, dented it. Smashed into some other cars, dented the back quarter panels. O yeah, he also pissed off some girl in college and she keyed the crap outta the car, omg its so narsty.

[vf-xx]

Nice!!! I've been debating getting one of those in red. Just trying to convince the fiance that the car is comfy.

I'd be interested in an in-depth review of it sometime.

Very nice car! And awesome house too!

I just picked up my fx yesterday too! :dance:

I rode in my brothers car everyday for the last half of the school year and I have driven it once. Heres what I can tell you....

Major torque steer

Back seats can fit 2 people and be comfy.

Nice trunk space

Driver and passanger behind driver will get major vibration from the exhaust

*Get a sunroof :)*


Overall from I think its a nice car, just not my style. I am more into SUVs.

PS - Dont get red, cops are drawn to it, my brother has been pulled over 5 times, 3 of the 2 times the cop said he had a choice to pull over 4 cars, he chose his because it was red and easier to follow.

By fx you mean your vette!?!?

PICS!!

Slipknot.. I only have ~20 miles behind the wheel, but I generally agree with what you said. Torque steer, unfortunatley, is a result of FWD vehicles with different length half shafts.. meaning about every FWD vehicle every built. As for the back seat.. well, I don't even plan on *sitting* there ;) My trunk space should be good and depleted soon, as a result of a nice sub box, haven't noticed the exhaust vibrations but I'm being a good boy and breaking the engine in before taking it up into decent rev range. And I got the sunroof! :)

I would love to get a 5 door. But my brother took all of my interest in getting one, by him getting a 4 door.

If you smoke cigs, DO NOT NOT NOT! smoke in that car, you will regret it for the rest of the cars days with you.

[teufelhunden]

Yeah, don't smoke cigs in any car. Rapes the resale.

And figures, I take all those pictures and 2 hours later my new antennae comes. Figures. Lol.

PICS!!

No Infiniti FX (SUV). I left my camera at work but will try and take pics once I find it. :)

p.s. Really like your house. Am starting to house hunt now. :D

Thats a beast of a car Simon :D.

[teufelhunden]

Ah. Bud of mine just got an FX45 [well, his parents..]

It's a nice area up here, but we're about 90ish minutes from Cherry Hill. Good schools all around, decent housing.. and of course lots of new construction. But hey, if you're willing to makew the long commute down to Sewell, it's not bad at all. 75 minutes from Manhattan, 90 from Philly, plus we seem to be right in the middle of everything that there is to do in Jersey.. nothing's really ever more than an hour away.. but not that anything ever goes on in this state period.

Oh, there's a house in my development for sale, if you're interested ;)

[manike]

Thanks, but I'm actually looking for something as near to work as possible. :)

Have fun with you new car!

[dynastyfan]

congrats man on getting a nice ride, the interior is nice in my opinion
