So,

I own this 2003 vw jetta.  It is a REAL car.  It drives in real rain, snow, and behind REAL gravel trucks.  REAL birds produce REAL shit that dries up REAL fast on the paint.  I try REAL hard not to was it more than once a month.  Cars are meant to get dinged, banged, driven hard, and the like.  With things out in the world like basket weaving and women, we all cant spend our days polishing things can we?

So my name is Chris, and im working on a 89 maserati in the pic (soon to be added to car domain, wheni get the time) 

Im new to Car domain, and figured id show some people this car.  Never really got it out to go do much, been to a drag or two in Kenocia (spelling?) Wisconsin.  stationed in VA for a year in the USN had to visit the famed track @ Laguna Seca, although only once (nice hotels out there i might add).  I dont condone street racing, but the car was occasionally used in the New Orleans-/- Mandeville area in Louisiana from 05-06 by my little sister in highschool.  From that point i told her to get her own little beat-me-up racecar,, and it followed me to Gaeta, Italy my current duty station.  No real inforced speed limit here,,, out on the A1, A14, A7, it spends most of the time bringing me to the nearest support site base, for groceries @ the redifined(unknown) redline in 6th for prolonged periods....  lots of windy roads around here,,, and streets made with a high granite and marble concentration, that dont work good with american tires...
