Yes I have a 2 car garage and a driveway. I do plan on keeping the S in the garage. I currently have and will keep: 91 Acura Legend and 94 Integra LS 5spd.


Sorry for sounding stupid, but, what's a once over? Is that like a basic inspection of the car? If so, I would def. like to have that done before cutting the check to the dealer. But, it seems he's located FAR FAR out in LI? Is there any way I could pay for him to come into Queens?

Welcome...

Personally - I park in Manhattan all the time.. on the street and in garages.. never had a problem there... only issue I have is delivery trucks and Limos sideswiping me or trying to run me off the road.

My car never gets parked in the city, for obvious reasons. However, if I absolutely have to (living in queens, you dont), Ill park on empty avenues where you cant park from 6am, or on sidestreets where I know at LEAST 80% that the cars there arent moving till the next morning.


Oh, about the seatlocks, dont get them. Terrible idea, especially in NY, let me know if you want details...Ill PM them to you.
