Accords cost $50k in Canada?

Yep. They came with the car and look awful. More faded pink now than anything. It's one of those things I've been meaning to replace forever but just keep putting it off. Doesn't help when there's other things on the car that need attention too so they just keep getting pushed further down the list.

You could always go third grade German and say "fünf fünf" (five five) At that point you might as well say 1955 in English though.

FOR **** SAKE!!! I'm awoken today at noon, which is 4 hours early from my normal wake time, only 2 hours into my sleep, by this same ******* pain! I can clearly tell this is gas pain this time. I can feel it bubbling in there, but it isn't reaching the caboose. Went and got another few bottles of my friend, and a pack of gas-x. It better go away, I'm tired of this ****. A little "stomach trouble" isn't going to beat me!!!

If this is your way of soliciting some sort of homosexual meeting, then try craiglist. I don't think anyone wants to come over and loosen your bowls, except maybe this guy.

Unfortunately. Hell, we get mad raped in every orifice when it comes to cars. It's ******* bullshit. The last guy in the city here that picked up a 355 got it for $32K.

Damn, I've been found out! I would post my ad... I mean problems in the poop thread, but I'm too lazy to look for it, and this thread is right at the top of the page.

Weird. Haven't really priced Accords lately but I guess they'd run between $25k and $35k brand new. Checked eBay and all the F355's were $50k or more.

If you aren't chatting in the Miata Turbo Forums Chat on FB, you aren't missing out on much.

I have a FB! I've checked it maybe twice since I opened it like 3 months ago.

Car froze up today... Very minimally, thank god.

Frozen radiator -> block hose. Was 32* last night, no antifreeze in the system.

Parked in garage, came home, found small puddle of water right under that hose. Thank god it was just that hose.

I messed up last season, we had an unexpected cold snap early in the winter. I was on my way to school and noticed the temp gauge about to peg out, and pulled over. The damn radiator was frozen nearly solid. I had to limp it home a mile at a time, stopping long enough to let the engine cool. It was so cold that the cold air across the radiator was keeping it frozen, even after probably an hour of driving and idling temps. You would have thought the hot coolant would have eaten a hole right through the block of ice, but I guess not. My radiatorbarn all metal held up and I had no leaks afterwards.
