Both like and hate it.


Feels free, but every time i miss a stoplight, or a stopsight because of sensory overload... I fear that I'm a danger on the road.

-Loving that Stalker there, esp with the supercharger peeking out :)

-I thought I would also take this opportunity to clarify my earlier comment, I don't drive recklessly or without regard for my own and other peoples safety.

-Oh and Shale, it's a pity you and your bf live on the wrong side of the water :P

I love to drive. I get restless at home sometimes and have to go out and drive around. I get really upset when my car breaks.

I hate the high gas prices because I love to go out and just drive around on the empty interstate at 2 in the morning. It's almost a ritual. I'm not sure it's entirely aspie though, my roommate does the same thing! I have to be careful about cops though, I like driving fast and the cops in Texas are very abusive late at night. I've never actually gotten a ticket before though although I have been pulled over for no reason while driving at night.


Same here, i also like driving verry much.
Especially at high speed, cant stand the 30kmh and 50kmh in the city so i rarely keep to those.
Gasoline now costs 1,44 per litre here wich is terrible.
Since i got my lisence 6 months ago it has gone from 1,22 to 1,44.
I'm verry glad i've not gotten a speeding ticked yet.
Because theyr extremely expencive and there is no way i can afford getting them.

Hawt. 8) The car is too. I'd love to have one of those, but the STI hasn't been available here for long and is still quite expensive.

Oh mang. Pity we're all separated by water because this would be a MEAN car meet 8) That Lotus is HOT! And we all know the 86 is secks :D (Y'all know you want to see that 86 chasing my GC8...hurrhurr)

As for the STi not being there long...what about a 2.5RS or similar GC8, strengthened and with a WRX motor dropped in? Common mod in the US community at least, and looks/sounds awesome :D

Nah. Subaru makes a damn good motor, and dropping one into a GC8 is cool, but I have a better use: I need an EJ22 out of the 22b STi. And a Porsche 914. You see where this is going.....

Heh, there was a '99 2.5RS coupe listed for sale when I was car shopping... it was about 100 miles away and I never did get out there to see it though. :(

Nah, I'd rather have an aircooled 914.

/me looks on ebay to see what they're going for around here

Driven one. FUN, but it has the same problem as my AE86, no balls. That's why the Subaru.

Yup! Driving at night especially, on an empty highway, about 10:30 or so, is awesome.

I think I could turn both of you bi. And if not, I'm a generous guy. The Corolla is a bit jealous though, but she might like you :wink:
