Default Just moved to Oviedo / Orlando

I just recently moved to the Oviedo FL area. I got a nice new job there, near UCF. My first day there I met some kid in a SC who told me to pull into a gas station and informed me of these local meets. He said some forum members meet up there ... he mentioned Chino.

Anyway, new the the area ... and just thought I'd say whats up to any locals.


Any good shops in the area?

Default Welcome!

Hope to see you in the area! You'll probably see me in the Waterford area cruising. That's where my wife spends all my money

Welcome to Oviedo bro! I live right off of Alafaya and go to Oviedo high.

Hopefully I'll see ya around sometime! There were meets on Colonial however due to a lack of interest it kinda dropped off sadly. There are ucf meets though and it's all fun.

Thanks for the welcome.

I am moving in on Friday afternoon. I'm actually living in a place called Seville on the Green, its in Winter Springs ... but only like 5 miles from Oviedo. My new job is in an office located in the Quadrangle, anyone near UCF should know what that is.

I'm excited ... lots of Lexus guys here. Where I live now, there is about 2 other SC's in town, and not a single Lexus with mods. Just 100 year old ladies rolling stock.

Chino - the person who told me about you was named Eric ... he had an sc with the really blue rims.

Ps. Anyone wanna help me move a couch and TV into the new apt Fri afternoon


A few pics:

Back when she was clean


The infamous 85mph tire blow on I-95 ... fixed now, but how she was

Welcome bro. Kinda funny, the first SC person I met in FL this summer mentioned Chino as soon as I asked him about CL.

wow, I didnt know I was so popular around here

I am starting to miss you SC guys though. Thats for sure... Some of you new guys to the area might not have been around then, but we used to have about 5-10 SC guys together every week or even more than once a week with just a few phone calls....

Then I blew my 1jz and ventured into the BMW scene after I got my 335i. I've had it since March 31st and still cant round up 5 guys at one given time (In Orlando or Tampa).

I also moved out here to Tampa as well which seems to be contributing to the dying lexus scene lately.... No sweat though, I should be back in the lexus scene aroun spring hopefully. The car currently runs/drives but has the stock 2jz-ge in it which is too boring for me. But im slowly working on something

For the time being, try to keep the scene alive!!!!!!! It's you new guys coming along that are motivating me to get back in with the lexus crowd!
