Default New member from Austin, TX

My original intro post disappeared so her it goes again.

My good buddy Shoeshine said that I should introduce myself so...hello.

Just picked up my '00 GS300 last week, but I've been a CL member for over a year.

Immediate plans are to clay the car, fix a couple of spots in the finish and polish the headlights.

Long term plans are suspension and wheels (in that order). I've been in the import scene for about 15 years and I'm excited to work on another platform. I've never owned a black car before so this should be interesting.

Not sure what you mean. In the Honda scene I always was into function before form (I even built my own motor). This time around, I just want to do exterior mods and call it a day. I really kind of enjoy driving slow in my GS.
