He is 54, his wife was 52.. she had cancer for like 9 years off and on. I work with the guy everyday and knew his wife pretty well, she was an amazing person...

On a more positive note I am pretty much sold on wanting a 2010 LGT(despite EL headers LOL). Impressive stage 2 dyno numbers and found out a lot of 08+ wrx/sti suspension parts fit on it.

That's real sad... Partners for life and then outta nowhere your sleeping in a bed that's empty just like that... Fkn sucks ***. Must be soooo emotionally hard on a person to loose someone like that...a person that you love that much and picture yourself growing old with... I've seen The Notebook toooo many times ...


But yeah the LGT! You selling your car yet? Or trade in..

Yeah its a spanner wrench. I have one if you need it. You can also just use a hammer and screw driver.

I just hooked up my girlfriends dads new 60" Plasma TV and I watched a couple movies in 3D and played initial d and gran turismo 5 damn that thing is awesome.
