took a 2 and a half hour drive to the mountains today. Wanted to find some windy roads, was almost bummed when the nav said I had 16 miles till destination and all I got so far was kinda curvy roads, but then I hit the bottom of the mountain leading up to Ceasers Head state park. WOW, what a blast, a 5ish mile trek up the mountain, super twisty, lots of swithbacks...literally what this car was meant for. Took my 12 year old son with me, we had so much fun. Got some great driving in, and did a couple hikes, saw some good views, and beautiful waterfalls. This car is bringing the "sunday drive" back for me. If you live in the Carolinas you gotta check it out

Those are some great pics!! Always fun to go bonding on Sundays...I took my kid up Angeles Crest Highway today...his first time, and we joined up with a big group of car enthusiasts, a little bit of everything including the Skyline my son was drooling over, lol, had a great time! Have to get my son to send me picks of my car...busy driving...lol

I know that exact stretch of road, I spent a week there last year for vacation. I must have driven that a half dozen times.

Are you a female? Is that nail polish?

Lol, I assumed the same thing!

Ordered floor mats from FleaBay, not sure how much cutting I'll have to do. Really liked the protection of the design & the price.

[joesiris]

It's awesome in the Carolinas! I've taken my 12 year old but he gets so sick from the twistys that he literally changes color to green! Send me a message when you go back and I'll try meet you up there!

would love to be there for a week, there are other parks to check out and I'm sure I could find other roads to drive. I could've just gone just to drive up and down that mountain and been content

 

[Cligedy]

Yeah that is a great area and a pretty good week.

 

[joesiris]

its a nice central hub to lots of places too, like Hendersonville, Greenville, and Ashville...wow that's a lot of villes

Lol, too many G forces!

yeah true story...haha reminds me of when I took him on his first big boy fair ride, he snotted all over me, couldn't handle it

 

[Typical Tom]

Signed the papers today! Pick her up Wednesday.

Put in new spark plugs. Went a step colder with NGK LTR7IX-11. Gapped to .026 per Stratified's recommendation. Engine is definitely running smoother through the low end.

I did notice the new plugs had 1 or 2 less threads than stock.

Stock plugs all looked fine after 4200 miles. Just a little carbon on the threads, but electrodes were clean.

Nice pics! I do plenty of driving but I'm a bit jealous because none of it is even close to as scenic as this! Just the usual humdrum urban city stuff...

Paid my speeding ticket today...

I'm all for an early 1st change, but isn't that a wee bit early?

I was told to do at 100 miles to get rid of the metal shavings and fragments trapped in the oil. Due to the shear process of everything meshing together. Figured it can't hurt and first oil change is on the dealership.
