I liked my '04 Silverado, but I certainly enjoy driving the S2000 more. The truck was more comfy though and could certainly haul a lot more stuff, well, except for a**. The S2000 works better for that.

Well its been 3 years since my S2000 got totaled. I've had a lot of fun with my Z06 but its to the point where I cant daily drive it any more.

I got a Silverado pickup in February but it was super boring so today I went into Rusty Wallis Honda and picked up an 05 silverstone w/ black interior. Put about a hundred miles on it tonight and loving it.

Just wanted to reintroduce myself. I still recognize a few names but a lot of new people on here. Looking forward to meeting you all at future events.

you should have just bought a bike. i havent had a car beat me yet on my 929. hahahaha bring it baby!


Im back too.... just needed to unload a few spare parts. I still have the Z06 too, just a cat back for now. thinking about adding a magna charger to the top end, hahaha. pure bolt on.

the special through honda was 3600 due at signing + TTL and 299 per month

Rusty Wallis went a decent amount lower than that special. Go look up Anthony Smith if interested.
Excellent, did you buy/lease yours from rusty wallace? Also how much lower are we talking? 2500 down and 300 a month?

I stopped at bankston lewisville and they were saying 4500 down plus 300 a month on a 36 month lease.

My gf is debating whether to lease a 05 or buy a 02, put 7 down pay it off over 48 months and sell it in 4-5 years when she's done with it. Anyone have any advice on leasing vs buying used and selling it later?

How anal is honda bout returning the car in absolute MINT shape and charging hidden fee/payments at the end?

lease from Rusty Wallis

around 3500 down

it only took like 10mins to get the deal done so they might have gone down a lil more

I also though about buying an older one but decided to get something with the warranty and I dont need many miles since I have another car.

The best lease deal I've seen is 0 down and $355 for 36 months.

If the '06 Laguna Blue is similar to the Monte Carlo Blue offered overseas I might be coming back to the family as well.

Jeepers, now we just need marcucci... I think he's required to get a 'Vette first though, just to fit in.


Hey there, Jer. Much the same going on around here. Glad to hear you're still around - all your incidents had me worried.

Kumar, let me know if you go against a Ford GT. I followed a brand new on down the Tollway for a few miles recently - first time I saw one on the road. Looked hot, and sounded great.
