The New Car

On a side note, She does stop on a dime. Some idiot pulled out in front of me and then slammed on the brakes on the way to work this morning and I just got on the brakes lightly and she went from 45 to 0 in a heartbeat. Never locked up or barked the tires just stopped. The 195 tires are pretty nice in corners and what not. Took a 25 mph S bend on ramp at 55 this morning and then punched it coming out of the bend to get in front of a line of cars and she did it with a smile on her face and I could see the dude in the truck behind me trying to figure out what kind of car is was.

I got the money for my car($16,200). I'm still waiting till the doctors give me the all clear before starting on a settlement with them.

Cool, at least you got a decent tab out of it. But I know that dent on your psyche will linger a bit longer... Well at least you have that new toy and new car smell to drown your "down time" with huh...

So apparently the CRZ is hot enough to attract cop attention. Going home last night after our party was doing 62 in a 60 on cruise. Valentine 1 starts going off and I see the cop. Didn't bother canceling cruise or anything just kept going in the middle lane since there was a guy pretty close behind in the right. About 20 seconds after I passed him and the V1 signal started to fade it slowly starts picking up again from behind. Mr. Police office was about 20 feet behind me. Stayed at the 62 and just kept driving. After about 5 miles he starts to pass me and he's going maybe 65. When he gets on the side of me I can see he has his window rolled down and he's just staring at the car. We made eye contact and he flashed a grin then went back to driving and got ahead of me. Once we got to the 70 mph zone he punched it so I took the bait and jumped on it too in 4th and kept up pretty well and we left off around 85. So moral of the story, if a cop starts following you for no apparent reason, keep your cool and drive normal. He may just want to check out your car.

Oh I'm in love with it. I have plans to be in this car or the newer models of it for a very long time.
