It's about time!
 
Well, i'm the proud new (third) owner of a gorgeous '94 LSi Laguna!

the original owner had died and his daughter sold it off in the man's estate sale in texas. when it was sold to the guy I bought it from, it had around 40k miles, and when i bought it today, it had 52,480 :cool: not bad for a 13 year old car! it's in downright sweet condition too! i'll get some pics up when i find some free time ;) technically speaking, this is my first car, i'm 18 years old and up until now i've simply driven the 3rd family vehicle, nobody else drove it, just me since i was 14, but now i have a car in my own name, and an SVX no less!

it's just one of those things on a list of stuff to do before you die, and definitely somewhere near the top of that list :D

anywho i'm really really glad to be a part of such an exclusive yet inclusive club!

That's GR8!!
Sorry, couldn't resist *grins*

Subaru, the only car that comes with friends!

haha yeah I do get rolling eyes and some occasional flak for my "GR8DANE" license plates, but since my name is dane, my parents thought they would be a nice bday present for my 15th bday to go on the blazer i drove. Cool thing about this state is that you get to keep the plates for whatever car you own, so there'll soon be a GR8DANE SVX rolling around :D haha i've already had somebody look at the plates, and then my car, and they tell me the car's styling is "Purebred Mutt" :lol:

i'll take that as a compliment!

You can tell them it's PEDIGREED, being drawn by the Italian Georgio Gugario, of ItalDesign. No Mutt to it.

Congrats! And welcome to the forum!

Gr8Dane 09-04-2007 06:20 PM

I actually did explain that to one person, and they just sorta stared and said "But I thought Subaru was Japanese?"
:lol::lol::lol:

oh well, you can't win'em all I guess.

god, I love this car.

GR8Dane is a great name! I play in a pool league and there is a men's team in another city named "The Well-Hungarians." You figure it out.

hahaha I take it that modesty is not one of their strongest traits?;)

oh and i just took some pictures of my car, terrible storm blowing thru here all of the sudden but i caught it in all its wet, sexy glory =]

i'll have those pictures up in just a little bit here, transferring them from a pc to my mac because kodak easyshare seems to refuse to play with anything that it's software won't run on haha lame.:rolleyes:

Gr8Dane 09-05-2007 03:46 PM

it was love at first sight, just need a good name for him/her (haven't decided)

because "Blue-baru" and "SmurVX" just sound goofy hahahaha

oh, and I love how the plates practically blend in perfectly (color-wise) with the body, especially on the rear, where the plate conveniently does a fade to red as it goes up toward the tail light bar and blue on the fade down toward the bumper, I dunno, In my mind it's one of the few times that license plates have actually looked good on a car, my state has great plates! woo!
