Housing market sucks, but we are still busy. Living a little more simply, but still living the dream:biggrin:
 
Just waiting for the weather to get better on this end.

Took the car out for a spin on Sunday..

Traded the S4 in on a Lexus. That's about it. Busy as ever.
 
Surviving.... for now. Optimistic for the future, still selling windows and siding, but still motivated to do detailing on the side to help ends meet.

Have had occasionally scary thoughts of how much longer I'll have my NSX, geez that's just freaking me out talking about it.

If anyone knows someone needing windows or siding, I'm giving referral bonuses up to $500 depending on the size of the job.

Thanks,
Chris
 
Sh*t loads of things for me to be upset about...expanding my bathroom down stairs(what a mess), just got done w/second tool shed, opening 03/01 a shop at pike place market for Jojo...so much to do, just got done w/flower garden show :-) , planning our trip to Italy next month(has anyone try Levitra? I got some free samples to take w/me):biggrin::biggrin:, still full time at po....
Dan gave me his new product "nsx cup holder" ..awesome dude!
 
Things are going well over here. I'm trying my hardest to not spend money if I don't have to. My job seems pretty safe at least for now. Seeing the world crumbling around me does make me worry though.

Despite that I'm still trying to sell my condo and buy a real house. I'd rather be "stuck" in a place with a garage and yard than where I am now.

I drive the NSX when I can. It got rained on yesterday :wink:.
 
Working my ass off, trying not to spend like stupid and watching savings if things get bad.

I've already decided, the NSX is not going though as I've got at least a dozen spare body parts I can get rid of if I have to e.g. kidney, eye, testicle, a few fingers here n there etc....and still be somewhat functional :)
 
Everything is fine with me. My bank is still solid and not in any financial problem (we didn't do sub-prime lending :smile:). Still have the NSX although I've been wanting to drive but haven't been able to. Just recently purchased a 91 Acura legend as a new daily driver. Oh and I also graduate in June from UW:smile: Hopefully there's jobs out there...otherwise ill stick around at my bank for a bit.
 
I'm pretty lucky- I got hired by Federal Way Police even before leaving the Army, and I go to the academy next week. My pay has actually gone way up compared to my last job.

I've been driving my NSX every day, since I'm trying to learn a new area and it's the only car I've got with a nav system. Pretty lame excuse, but the car is too much fun for me to care.

I'm still running the service department at Acura of Lynnwood. Business has been pretty slow since November. I layed off 14 people starting just before Thanksgiving and if this econemy keeps up I'll be cutting a few more. Still having about 35 people under me, I'm still maintaining a relatively descent size service department. Laying people off really sucks and it's stressfull at times, but I have a business to run and it's my responsibility to stay profitable...so far so good!

The shitty thing is I've been working 6 days a week and 12 hr days to stay on top of everything. Just in case you guys ever wonder where I am, chances are you'll find me at work. And no, I'm not paid hourly. I've never worked so hard or so much for so little. But in this econemy and in my line of business that's what it takes.

The good news...I still have a bunch of stuff on order for the X, I'll update you guys once it's complete.

3.0 CTE supercharger kits are available now...still waiting for the 3.2 kits. Keep an eye on the vendor section, I'll be posting soon. I can provide the best pricing on CTE period! That includes if you contacted them directly!

And remember local primers, Contact me for the best pricing for parts and service too, I've got your backs!

Still cranking some hours here @ Boeing before they boot me out the door.
Thinking of doing informercial for a living... with a top notch camera crew (1) like Ferrand, I can't do wrong.
Still do real estate on the side and college is a breeze for now.
 
I'm still out here and left Boeing at the end of December to pursue new opportunities as we specialists were being brought back under myopic management types.
I will always have my NSX and my race car until the creator takes the smell of racing fuel out of my nostrils and buries my dead carbon unit ass!
I graduate in June, take the summer off and start my masters program in September of this year. I will run my car at least once this year in IRDC to maintain my license and if I find suitable employment I will run a full season, if not just make maintenance runs this year in the summer to stay in tune.
I ordered a set of Work emotion XD9s in October and still have not seen the little beggars and will cancel the order in two weeks if they do not arrive. May be asking everyone for wheel suggestions and a suitable place to purchase if this deal continues to go goofy.

Not much has changed around here...except I have this 3.2l Targa CTSC kit that nobody wants :frown:


People fixing the old car and not buying a new one has kept us as busy as ever.


But the efforts by the folks in DC to completely destroy our economy have me pretty much convinced that the next great depression has just begun.
 
Still banging sheet metal. Selling everything I own on ebay to buy parts for the NSX. I caught the mod bug.

Everything is fine on my side and still daily driving the NSX. I think the forum has been dead since this group doesn't have any meets in the winter.
