Cool cool about the xD mandy.

I drove a stick xD yesterday around the city and I gotta say, it handles really nice though it lacks some major power. Sure beats that Neon, lol.

hey guys.
okay, so i have a car show announcement. i'm part of the Carnegie Mellon University Taiwanese Students Association, and we've teamed up with the Carnegie Motors Club here at CMU to bring the Pittsburgh community CMU's first charity car show @ CMU. This would be Saturday, Oct. 6.

right now, we're planning on donating all proceeds to the Red Cross. we're estimating a $15 entry fee for all cars being shown, no charge to look. There will be no competition, only a single Best of Show award. show up, show your car, have a good time.

that's the plan that we have right now. it would be awesome if the scionlife guys and gals could come out and help a good cause and have a great time at CMU. there will be nice cars there, no doubt. we're still defining the fine details of the show but that's the gist of it.

oh also, if anyone on here has a dealership that wants to possibly show a car or something, that would be awesome too.

spread the word.
Oct 6. CMU charity car show by TSA and Carnegie Motors.

I'll update with more details as they come.

My box runs a million times better after changing the plugs and air filter. Now all I need is to get a decent price on it on trade in then I'll get that new xb.

It grows on ya, especially when modded, but then again I want more than $13k for my car so I'll be keeping my xb I guess. I could also switch brands, always the choice of a rabbit, civic, fit, mazda3, versa, sentra se-r, and the new impreza.

Well, I am not trying to be nasty here but I was one of the "random" people to pop up on the site. I did come to the meet at Spitzer this past summer,a little late but did show up with my son. We walked around for about 20-30 minutes and no-one said a word to us so we left. I felt really out of place. I have on 06 Xb and really enjoy the car. I was trying to get my son who is 15 interested into going to the meets with me but he said he was really bored there.

Everyone is going to feel a little out of place the first time they go to something, especially if you are only there 20 minutes and then bail. Plus "shows" and "meets" are really 2 very different things. I would suggest coming out to a meet, and get to know us. We've got a very cool group.
