    My girl was getting pissy with me for taking pictures of cars in a parking lot, I had to take what I could lol. Has anybody here married into a family that has in-laws you cant stand? My future sister in law is a total c u next Tuesday.

    I would be on the lookout for rare Abarth Fiats we don't have here, and French cars like Citroen and Peugeot. Subcompact Mercedes and also Alfa Romeo's that never made it to any of the Americas.

All those American safety regulations, for the most part, are unnecessary and can suck it. An islander told me he bought a brand new Suzuki Alto for $6k! Ill take pics when I can. Here's the ring I got to propose with, not the biggest rock, but hey, I drive a Mirage so what do ya expect? Lol!Attachment 16595
    Firstly chum many congratulations on the forthcoming. Best of luck. Give me your address and I'll mail over some headache pills.

    I looked at a Suzuki Celerio, Jesus Christ, it would have been better to put wheels on a Cocoa Cola can. Awful car. We don't get that nice looking Nissan either.

    Yes, am in that boat. Word to the wise: keep your thoughts about the in-laws to yourself. And remember, when you marry her, they come with her. Tale as old as time; just try to limit your time with the one you don't like....good luck.

    Yeah talking bad about their siblings is just one step down from comparing her to your ex during a fight. Yikes.

    Well, you could have told her that we already saw her engagement ring, & now we wanted to see pics of the different cars you were seeing!

    Yeah Im going to sneak out and find a parking lot. Everybody on this trip with me thinks Im a weirdo for constantly talking about the myriad of subcompacts here lol. Alas, at least I have my Mirage family that understands!
