oh hells yeah!
Back in the Bay, and it's great. If you see a BRP RS coupe with Hawaii plates, don't slam into me. It's been so so so right on to be back and I have only been here 2 days.
Anyone have good recommendations for insurance? I tried Progressive, GEICO and eSurance and all are around $900/6mo for just my RS with me and my g/f. Both of us have perfect driving records.
Looking for a place to live, cheap insurance and a silver OBS.

wombat, welcome back! I recently switched over to Farmers' Insurance (from 21st Century for the lower rate) for little over 600 for 6 months with 00RS and 98Protege. No tickets for the past 4 years, multi car discount, multi policy (home), good driver, and group discount (engineer). Good luck!

Thanks for the tips - I will give them a try. I might end up back with Progressive since they were marginally cheaper, and always good to me (10 years with them).
Anyone recommend a good exhaust shop? I want a new cat pipe and midpipe w/ resonator made. Prefer peninsula or as south as santa clara.. TIA!
Also thanks for the welcome! I missed the Bay bigtime. Reid how's the car?

costco insurance provider, Ameriprise, has good deals on insurance. Might be worth signing up to be a costco member! Cheep oil, massive amounts of EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME!

I'm a Costco member so I will check that out. Hawaii was cool, but will be better when I am older.. If my g/f starts hitting stuff with my Suby I will need to put the USDM bumper back on. Crap.
