Las Vegas/Blue Diamond SVX

Every morning around 6:30am, I see this sweet sounding SVX. It's going toward Las Vegas way out on Blue Diamond road.

Are you member here? That's a sweet sounding exhaust you have.

i actually test drove the blue one before i purchased my 97 lsi
it was modded by a young guy and it had the tuner thing going on
it had many issues
and the exhaust thing was way too much for me

i am going to do the stebro thing as soon as i can get my hands on the dosh

i have only seen 2 other stock 92`s here in vegas in the last 6 months

That must be it. It is a laguna blue. I only hear it as we pass each other at 60mph. It sounds great from the road.

We should have a meet sometime soon. I need some adult sociallizing. I've been in Boulder City for 3 months now and other than the girlfriend and her friends I dont hang out too much. I'll even bring out the Supercharged 6-speed SVX for you guys to check out and take some rides in.

Mike, I didn't even know you were out in this neck of the woods now. Welcome!! My SVX very rarely comes out of the driveway anymore due to my working so far from home now.

The gas mileage is so bad..... (how bad etc..etc..) it is so bad....

That it was cheaper for us to buy the wife a Mercedes SL500, and me drive her Saturn back and forth to work. (Heh.. not really, but we did it anyway.)

I think a Meet would be a lot of fun. We've never had one out here.

hey, there's other svx's in vegas? if you see a yellow/orange one around blue diamond that's me. i have only seen one other in the last year, it was pearl white and for sale, neglected too. i don't have room to speak though, mine hasn't been out much, it was in storage for 4 or 5 years before i brought it out here to vegas, now i'm slowing getting it back up to par. i wanna see a super 6 speed, well, maybe i shouldn't. it might re-ignite my passion for this car.

Well, recent developments (female) have left me with much spare time, and I imagine soon spare cash, so when ever you guys want to meet let me know. I'm out in Boulder City, I dont know what part of Vegas everyone is at, but I have plenty of room for a mini meet here, or if theres somewhere in between us thats better for you guys, let me know. Just try to keep it to the south a little. I have to run the Rebel 102 octane gas which is costing me $5 a gallon and I'm getting about 15 miles per gallon in that thing.

I'm telling you we need to do a meet soon. The weather is getting beautiful. I've got this new thing going on called finding myself right now. The girlfreind and I broke up on Friday morning (her idea). Friday was the pissed off depressed day. Then I got to doing some self reflection on Saturday(started out with why did I drink so much). I realized some of the things she was saying wernt to far off bases. We met right after I got out here. I had no freinds or anything. I realized, that I had no clue who I was. I know who we were, but by myself I didnt have much of an idea. So Saturday and today have mostly been about me fining me. Ive exchanged a few text messages with her, And today I dropped by the bar she works at at opening and she was by herself and we talked a little bit. I have gotten her to consider changing her mined about breaking up, but I did at least get her to start talking to me and agree to have lunch tommarrow before she goes into class.


Anyway back to the origional point (sorry I ramble off on tangents sometimes). I spent the entire day out side in Boulder City. (am I went up to Mels dinner and had breakfast, then walked around for about 2 hours. On the way home is when I noticed she was working and noone was there, and I stopped in to talk a little. Once customers started coming in I left so she could do her job. I headed home and piddled around in the garage until about 1:30. I finished playing around there and took a shower to clean up. After my shower I was feeling pretty good. The entire time I was in the garage my Mountain bike had been sitting there taunting me. Felling energized I through on the helmet and went for a ride. I had said many times that I need to start biking again, it's been nearly 3 years. I biked all the way around the old section of Boulder City. As I was headed back to the house, I ran across her just coming of work. (Sadly her work is on the main street, so I end up having to pass it just about anywhere I go. Im hoping it isnt looking like I'm stalking her. ) As she was leaving she look at me and at least gave me a small smile and waved.


Side note.
If you take out all the stuff about my relationship, the point I was origionally trying to make is that the weather is cooling down and going to be perfect for an outside meet. I'd even recommend having on here in Boulder. The Veterins memorial park is really nice and free to use. There's picnic areas and a Water play area with water cannons and sprinklers for kids if you bring any.

Whoa Mike. I hope it all works out. It kind of sounds like it will if you take it slow. It sounds like she's at least open to patching things back up.

As for a meet. Yeah.

I'm up for a meet.

How about everybody else out here?

Best of luck in the relationship Mike

We guys do tend to slip into bad habits, whether it is through boredom or lack of fulfilment at work, lots of things. I hope you take the opportunity to regenerate yourself, do a make-over, moral and mental botox injection, whatever it takes

She sounds like maybe worth winning back, she seems to have your welfare at heart.

Good luck.

Joe

Nope, not working out. I've been thinking about it and I'm moving on. She also changed her mind about talking to me. Im trying to get someone else to go to the truck races with me this weekend (Bartender from another bar, LOL). I won a set of tickets and see wants to go, she just needs to figure out a scheduling thing. As for the EX, she's just to young(just turned 22) and inmature, and deep down I know it wasnt a permenit thing anyway. I just figured it wouldnt end quiet this way or this quick. For the most part I'm doing pretty good. Only problems I have are with sleeping. We were sleeping together most every night and I got use to someone being there.

As for a meet, how about Sunday September 30th? It's 2 weeks away so it should allow enough time to get it set up. If anyone wants to talk about how we want to set it up, give me a call or text message. My cell (410)440-7877. I'll be the point man for setting it all up. I've got the spare time now, and I need to find some people that she doesnt know to hang out with. Thats the problem with dating a Bartender in a small town, everyone knows her.
