We will take out you car and drive all around town. I was surprised when the guy gave me the keys to his Bentley once. The porsche turbo is a monster. It goes to 60 in second gear.

mine goes to 90 in second and 50 in first, but i don't think that's what he meant. anyway, i'm 20 and don't have a job, but i am looking. seems no one wants to hire a college student with 4 yrs of customer service experience, 2 of those as low level management. i'm hittin up all the car dealers and auto/motorcycle related places to try and find a job.

23, work at AQMD (air quality management district) in So.Cal. It deals with our air quality and emissions. We issue the permits and collect fees to use air-polluting equipment. Ironic thing is that I plan on getting a turbo or maybe swap in the sr20det emissions legal or not. = )
