Yup!

Where are you from? How long in Florida?

Remember old is a relative term, I don't consider myself old and I can always take comfort in the knowledge that Sub-Zero is "older" and more mature than me!
D'oh! My bad

We live in Seminole, we're both Floridians born and raised.

I think a loud exhaust will take at least 5 years off your actual age.

lowering: 5 years
FI: 10 years
Loud stereo with much bass: 10 years

with those mods, you're bound to drive like a teenager.

Welcome both of ya!

I have a few tips as well..

always keep a quart of oil in the trunk just incase...i have had may cars that liked to burn oil and having a quart ready on hand just incase save me a few times...but like everyone is saying look at the oil about everyother time you fill up yer tank!

always wear sunscreen/and or hat from burning while the top is down ...trust me it will happin.

avoid even the smallest pot hole ..if you can..these are presision machines and the imperfect roads can create havoc with the alignment and pitch/awl of the cars

i to need seat locks, but i havent seen any for sale online..i thought there was a guy making them but i cant seem to find the thread anymore.

the 1st mod you might want to look at is a pair of convex <sp? mirrors to reduce the really bad blindspots while the top is up..dont wanna be running into anyone! i still havent found something i like, but i havent looked that hard yet....

good luck and have fun!
