Woodlands, TX Newb

Post by BeanBone »

86 newbie here, live in the Woodlands and work in the Galleria.

I've wanted an 86 for a long time, but for some reason it never happened. Finally got off my ass this week and sold this Thursday:

To buy this Friday:

Seemed like a pretty good deal to swap a Miata for a GT-S. The car is pretty rough, but it runs and I'm just happy to finally have one.

Oh, I have some other old Toyotas, too to keep it company:

So yeah, pretty Toyota-obsessed right now. My HOA hates me, but screw them. Past cars are all over the map: S13, E36, first gen Mustang, all sorts of boring commuters, etc.

Looking forward to learning and making friends. She's going to need a lot of work...

Thanks. Yeah, between these cars, the dailys and the truck, I have to go and rotate the cars to prove to the HOA they are "used daily on the roads of Texas." Can't wait to get a new place without the old people gestapo force watching me.

Welcome, nice collection you have there. I always thought they should be called HOEs- home owner's enemies.
