Dang, that many 240's in the Lincoln park area??? I would have never known! Props to ya though! Hope you get that coupe done! Too bad you aren't doing the work yourself, but hey, not everybody is into that. I would be down for meeting up in the spring maybe. My 240 doesn't see Michigans salty winter roads!arabdrifter wrote:hey all..representing the dearborn/lincoln park areas.

Oh, and roadboy, yeah, you should always keep you car secure in our area. However, Honda's tend to be the car preferred by the thieves and vandals around here.
For sure! Did you check out xceedspeed.com yet? I saw your vid of you drivin you 240 around in the snow. Looked like fun! haha I haven't ever taken mine out in the snow, but I always have a winter vehicle. Plus, I barely get any traction in the rain, so snow would just be stupid for me...roadboy240sx wrote:

ya im on xceed, just posted my intro a little while ago,driving the 240 in the snow is not for the faint of heart, your drifting the whole time even if you dont want to (coming to a red light doin 35mph and shift down into second and your car becomes 2 lanes wide with out warning) its time to go home and get the truck ( like a ranger with bald tires and no wheight in back is any better)gizzerd wrote:

Hehe yeah that sounds about right. I know what it's all about. I actually prefer to drive rwd in the snow, and there are many times that I have wanted to take the 240 out and play, I just can't stand to get it covered in salt! Plus, summer tires and a turbo just don't work in snow.roadboy240sx wrote:
