Merry Christmas everyone! Been a while. Glad to see a few old faces in here still! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

Manual! So much fun.

So, resurrecting an old topic here, but I thought I'd update. The IQ was a nice car, but back in November I traded her for a 2017 86. Oh man, LOVE this car. I hope you're all well!

SOLD You snoozed and you missed out. Somebody got a crazy deal. Hi everyone! I found a bunch of my old 2005 450 stuff in storage. Stock wheels, a rare car cover, stock front valence/lower bumper, stock shocks and springs. All in very good shape. I live in New Westminster these days. I'd prefer it went to a CSC member, so make me an offer. 778-eight89-9639, or PM

Selling my gift. Tsk.

Bil's last post. Oddly fitting, and probably what he'd like to have said in this thread.

Oh damn it. This is terrible news. Bill was always a fun guy, and a big part of CsC.

Glad to read that my old smart's organ donation is going well.

LOL, maybe!

Yeah, most people didn't.In the comedy-sci-fi novel "The Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy", a super computer was built to provide the answer to life, the universe and everything. After an incredibly long calculation, the answer was pronounced to be "42". Fans have since worked the number 42 into a lot of sci-fi shows as an homage to the novel.Our cars are ForTwos, which I thought was similar to "42". The book went on to try and find out what the question actually was, and at one point, "What is 6 times 7" was seized upon as a possible question. It's all very convoluted and silly.Anyway, the plate was a nod to the book.

That wouldn't fit as well with the whole "answer to life, the universe, and everything" aspect of the plate though.

I still have that old Brabus exhaust Mike, if you want it. It ain't gonna fit on the IQ.

Hi gang! I have sold the old black terror and purchased a new vehicle. I thought I should let y'all know that the "6 x 7" vanity plate is back in the public domain, if any smarties want to pick up the torch. For reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrases_from_...e_to_the_Galaxy Cheers, Gent.

It might be worth it to him to re and re the engine, if the car has any sentimental value. $5k would probably be for one in great shape with less klicks on it. It is cheaper to repair than buying a new car; however, that's a tough call.You might want to contact Eddy over at Flying Tiger for some discussion twixt professionals, or to see if he is interested in the parts.
