Damn I think it was 3rd Ave in the East Village Saturday night - an almost identical car to mine (not sure if it had strakes and clear corners like mine)

Was it a member here?

 

Yes... THAT WAS ME!!!! I didnt see you though.... I ended up going to a trendy spot called Bar89 I recommend it to everyone.... and also a good friend of mine owns a place called Antique Garage, I was headed there but he closed the place for a private party... But I dont have clear corners.... But I was there...

 

wow the first time a siting was linked to someon to the board.

 

hah bar89, thats in the dead of soho.

i used to work about 3 blocks from there. not a bad place.

Cool. I honked but it was just as we were even, going opposite directions.


I really like the titanium color for the city- looks elegant in nice lighting, but when you park on the street at night it tends to blend in.


Did you park on the street? I am way to nervous to let a garage handle my car- between having to find reverse on the 6 speed and flooding the engine if they have to keep moving it. I have 3M coating on the front and rear bumpers just for street parking "bumps" by other drivers as they park,

I love the east village. I used to live on Ave. A and now that I live uptown I still go there like 5 nights a week.

 

moving out of the city was probably the best and worst thing i could do =p

for one thing, i'd of never bought the 8 if i was in the city.
on the other hand, all my friends are in the city and i'm left to parking issues like you just said =/

i used to live in the LES, Ludlow and Grand. i don't think my 8 would have fared well on the street.

I usually valet at a place that doesnt move around cars, that night i got lucky and found a nice n cozy spot across from bar89 so I could see my baby while i was sitting and standing.... the spot was roomy. For the city people make sure to check out Antique Garage... you will love the ambiance...
