Default My GS is sold and it's time for a goodbye

I just watched my GS pull away with her new owner.

Man, I've been on these boards for over 4 years and I've loved every minute of it. I've learned so much on these boards and have built some great friendships. Thanks to everyone who made me want to come and viist these boards everyday. Ya'll are truly innovators.

It's weird, I've always come on here looking for the latest mods, retrofits, mystery bodykits, and more. I've always had thoughts on what to do next. I have no idea how to get my daily fix now!

So what car next, you ask? Let's just say I sacrificed my GS4 for my business. I'm already starting to think of how to mod it out and make it look somewhat respectable, but it'll never run as smooth and strong as my GS.

Anyway, I wanted to send out my appreciation to everyone for being awesome. And for the newbs, you've found the right place for your Lex.

I'll be around the boards, but probably a little less. Thanks, everyone!

Woe kev !

Let me be the first to bid you adieu.

Over the years we spent a lot of time on PM and on the phone talking.

You and I have been on these forums for 5 YEARS !

It will be sad to see you go.

Keep in touch, good luck with the business, say hi on the forums when you get a chance and def. let me know if you're ever in the hood.

We need to meet one day.

Take Care

I know that I'll be hurting inside for a while after selling that car. It's a beauty. I have a millenium silver one as well. The additions to the car make it look better but at the same time hurts ya more knowing that it's not your car anymore.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I already told him that he'd better start posting on the boards! Ha ha.

Seriously, the car has been such a huge part of my life and it was always an eye turner (you don't see many hooked up GS's in my area).

Now, it'll be an eye turner in Northern VA.

I'm just waiting for the day I'm at Tysons Corner Mall in No.VA and see my car parked somewhere.

Thanks, Glen. You've always been a great support to me out here on the East Coast.

And we DO need to meet...
