yes i drove it, i didn't realize how fast i was going untill i got pulled over, cop said he clocked my @ 92 in a 55, i was still in third gear with about 2g to go before redline, i didnt get a ticket, cause it was late at night and i wasn't swerving, and had complete control over the vehicle. with school and work, im making a good amount of money, im pulling in at least 2grand after rent and everything, so i think i am going to trade in my car for a more reliable honda, probably a newer SI before they went to hatchbacks, or i might get a new titan or tundra, cause i like them they are nice, and they are quick, if i get a truck i am keeping my car (make it a track car!) but omg i almost sh!t a brick when i saw the blue, and heard the WOOP WOOP!
