: My new best friend
itburnout 10-30-2007, 06:25 AM I just picked up my 03 SVTF last night from a Suburu dealership. 25k miles for 11K. The car runs pretty nice! I haven't had a chance to snap any photos, so I'm posting the dealer pics that were listed in the internet ad below. Oh btw, I'm new kthx.

jestercow 10-30-2007, 09:12 AM nice find dude, looks nice!
and welcome to FF =)
*starts searching for sporks*
itburnout 10-30-2007, 09:21 AM Hey, thanks! I'm pretty happy all the way around with the buying experience and the car. One of the guys I work with is a big tuner and didn't believe I picked up this car for 11K. I had to show him the autotrader ad. :) Turns out there was a little bit of drama at the dealership over this. They had to honor the price, but I think they didn't make much money off of me. Especially considering they gave me about 114% on my trade in value. (kbb puts a '06 Charger R/T at $21,8 and they gave me $24,8)
jestercow 10-30-2007, 09:32 AM holy shux!!!! i must find this dealership....
itburnout 10-30-2007, 12:33 PM holy shux!!!! i must find this dealership....
hahah!! Well, I don't think they will be making that mistake again. Lucky me in this case.
slocussvt 10-30-2007, 06:04 PM Nice find and welcome to FF! Keep an eye out in the forum, we have plenty of meets you can come to.
ShugarL0 10-30-2007, 07:27 PM Nice car! .. Where in atlanta are you? I am in athens, my parents live in the Gwinnett area... you should come to some of our meets!
gump1114 10-30-2007, 11:49 PM nice looking ride! though the front tag thing needs to go ASAP since you dont need it in GA.
itburnout 10-31-2007, 04:59 AM Nice car! .. Where in atlanta are you? I am in athens, my parents live in the Gwinnett area... you should come to some of our meets!
I'm over by the Falcons Training Camp in Flowery Branch. I would like to come to a meet. Too bad I missed the most recent one.
bigdaddyssvtf 10-31-2007, 08:57 AM Nice car! Welcome to FF.
itburnout 10-31-2007, 09:22 AM Thanks for the warm welcome. :) I'm hoping I can speed up the process for getting my title/tag in order so I can see to Build Certificate. I would like to make the next meet in Atlanta.
ShugarL0 10-31-2007, 12:37 PM Yea, I know exactly where ya are.. my parents live further up 20 near there.. I go to Gainesville State right down the road from there.. so yea we should definately have another meet!

I refuse to go to Oakwood anymore. The traffic has gotten so bad, it just pisses me off. What's the use in having a fun car if all you are going to do is sit in traffic and flip off your vehicular neighbors?
A meet does sound fun. Perhaps sometime in November?

just a fore-warning... there's this really annoying neon that shows up to alot of the focus meets...lol
gonefhsn 10-31-2007, 03:21 PM Hey welcome. And yeah that Neon is a real nuisence....but he is cool
itburnout 10-31-2007, 03:31 PM I've been trolling these forums for about a week while I was doing my research and reading up on the SVT before I decided to shop for one, and I've seen this neon driving character all over the place. It's like the guy that everybody loves to love when they don't want to push him in front of a speeding train. We have had people like that on my itburnouts forums, but they usually get run off within a month. I guess they frown on our lack of a "silver-spoon-up-your-ass" blend of humor. That, and being told to stuff it in your balloon knot a few times also makes people go away.
Gump seems like a cool guy, even if he is from Warner Robins AND drives a Neon.
slocussvt 10-31-2007, 05:58 PM Well, he used to drive a focus.
itburnout 10-31-2007, 08:27 PM lol Before you bought it. :)
warneej 10-31-2007, 10:04 PM ^^this dude knows his shit...ff-stalker! hahaha
glad to have you brother, and glad we got another svt in the mix!
zx505focus 10-31-2007, 10:09 PM good looking car
jmotank 10-31-2007, 11:02 PM check out the focal point threads. we're going to a small show in mcdonough this saturday if your interested. good to see another focus rollin around atl!
ShugarL0 10-31-2007, 11:15 PM Yea "Gump" is a character... Just when you meet him, theres this rule where you have to grab his nipples.. its the Neon way of saying "hello".
haha
oh and yea.. Oakwood sucks hairy balls..espically with all the construction their doing.
We should have another Mall of Ga meet maybe?? If I can find some other stuff to do around there.. I dunno, just a suggestion.
itburnout 11-01-2007, 04:15 AM Mall of Ga would work. We could meet over by the Atlanta Bread Company. Slightly out of the way and there should be ample parking. Also, there is a new strip mall across from where the Sams Club is.
gump1114 11-01-2007, 09:49 AM what the hell is wrong with warner robins? dont be hate'n...
and danielle, if he pinches my nipples because of you... im biting yours... again.
itburnout 11-01-2007, 12:20 PM what the hell is wrong with warner robins? dont be hate'n...
haha!! Nothing is wrong with Warner Robins, so long as you are comparing it to Macon or god forbid Dublin. ;).
...if he pinches my nipples because of you... im biting yours... again.
I just picked up a new set of plyers. Sounds like it's time to put it to good use.
:)
gonefhsn 11-01-2007, 01:49 PM Yeah a Mall of Ga meet sounds good, It will give me a chance to show off my new Vista Blue 08 SES Coupe I pick up Saturday....[:)]

gonefhsn 11-01-2007, 03:13 PM What? I have been lookin and I kinda started to really like it, the Vista Blue is just beautiful and I got all the goodies too, leather, heated seats audiophile, Moon roof, but I think the sickest thing is the Sync system. But yeah I will have to take pics.
But that bad thing is I am giving up the D23 and going down to a D20
here is a link to fordvehicles, and what I am getting on it.

Agreed.
I ran into another red svtf around here. I've seen him before while i was driving mine. I'll have to stop him sometime and see if he's on here or not.

haha. Yeah, I know. Usually when it's not somebody ends up getting called a [:)][:)][:)][:)]tard. At least where I come from, they do.
ShugarL0 11-03-2007, 09:53 AM haha yea.. we just havent gotten that far yet.. hehe
itburnout 11-03-2007, 06:01 PM Back on topic -- I spent a whopping 15 bucks on my car today. I had to order a new wiper fluid jet and a clip for the cover that goes over the seatbelt assembly (the top half anyway). I was missing one of the screws. I hate that they make you buy 4 of them. Grrr... I did talk to my brother who works in Covington at a custom performance vehicle shop who thinks he can get me a break on some upgrades for my car. We'll see what he comes back with. My focus is in such good shape, I'm considering converting it to a show car as an all original look w/ performance upgrades. I would possibly have to replace the rear bumper cover and see about having the front seats recovered, since the driver one is fairly worn. Apart from that, the car doesn't really NEED anything.
warneej 11-04-2007, 03:41 PM so ummm joshy-boy since you're gettin rid of the ST can i have your cossie intake??? please please oh pretty please?!?
gonefhsn 11-04-2007, 04:09 PM Ok if I was to sell the ST Evan you would get my Intake, but since I was just jokeing and wanted to see what kind of reaction I would get, you can't have it. I am not going to go down in HP or motor size....hell I have only had the smurf for like 9 months.....
bigdaddyssvtf 11-05-2007, 08:25 AM You gut smurf inards sprayed all over your engine compartment. ewwwww...
Yea he does, but it actually looks pretty cool.
itburnout 11-05-2007, 03:21 PM Yea he does, but it actually looks pretty cool.
I have never been a big fan of blue on a car, but the SES looks pretty good in that color. Not sure how it would go in a 3 door, tho.
gonefhsn 11-05-2007, 03:39 PM see it is not too bad......he just Smurfed a little

You should see the red samco hoses i just installed then. They're crazy!!!
rfinger 11-05-2007, 09:52 PM gratz bro....Have fun with it
itburnout 11-18-2007, 06:26 PM Well, after I had my car a few days, I had to take it in because of the brakes problem (the panic light was going off/on). Ford told me I would need new rotors/pads at 26K which would've run about $400. I called Subaru Gwinnett and they told me to bring it in and they would take care of it. They gave me a Turbo Baja which I had for just about a week. Nice driving vehicle, but the Baja is horribly uninviting. Anyway, they followed through as promised and took care of the brakes, not charging me a dime. The GM also told me to go get a second key cut and they would pay for it. If anybody is ever in the market for a Subaru, PLEASE let me know and I will send you to these guys. It's been the best experience.

you could have just added some brake fluid... but hey, a free brake job isnt bad at all.
warneej 11-18-2007, 11:08 PM hahaha sweet deal dude...
itburnout 11-19-2007, 07:38 AM you could have just added some brake fluid... but hey, a free brake job isnt bad at all.
True, but the pads were well worn. The Discs were somewhat worn, but still within spec after turning. I could've added fluid and just ignored the pads for a little while, but like you said. A free brake job is a good thing.
bigdaddyssvtf 11-19-2007, 09:46 AM A free brake job is a good thing.
I agree a free bj is a good thing!!!
itburnout 11-19-2007, 01:43 PM Oh there is NEVER anything wrong with a free bj.
warneej 11-19-2007, 05:52 PM i give myself free bj's once and a while...wait a second..
itburnout 11-19-2007, 06:42 PM i give myself free bj's once and a while...wait a second..
I would if I could!
But uhh... I don't have the right tools for that. Plus, no jack stand.

yeah... he even offered to give me one once... i turned him down

[:)][:)][:)] hag is a slang term for a woman who either associates mostly or exclusively with gay men, or is best or good friends to a gay man or men. It originated in gay male culture in the United States and was historically an insult.[1] Some women who associate with gay men object to being called [:)][:)][:)] hags,[2] while others embrace the term.[3][4] Men who have similar interpersonal relationships with lesbian women are called dyke tykes; furthermore people who associate with gays, lesbians, and bisexuals may be called "fruit flies" regardless of their sex. [:)][:)][:)] hags are frequently stereotyped as lonely or unattractive women, sometimes overweight, who are seeking a substitute for heterosexual relationships, or who are secretly sexually attracted to gay men.[5][6] In fact, many women who identify as [:)][:)][:)] hags are already in romantic relationships, either with straight men or with women[6] but appreciate the alternative experience of socializing with gay men.
Dcl2049 11-26-2007, 01:18 PM Haha, that made my day Shelby. I had no idea you were an academic.
I know I don't really have a butt ugly girlfriend. [:(]

gump1114 11-26-2007, 03:15 PM more from wikipedia:
American [:)][:)][:)] hag synonyms include fruit fly,[7] homo honey, fruit loop, Goldilocks, flame dame, and fairy godmother.
Foreign equivalents of [:)][:)][:)] hag are: the French, "Fille à Pédés" ("[:)][:)][:)]s girl"), which is highly pejorative: a woman usually would not self-describe herself as such; the Japanese okoge, meaning burnt rice that sticks to the bottom of a pot, with okama (pot) being the slang word for a gay man. Although there was a popular Japanese film titled Okoge (1992) the term remains little-known beyond Japan.[8]
Conversely, friendships between heterosexual men and lesbians are addressed with the slang terms lesbro, dyke tyke, Dutch boy, dyke dog, and rug doctor in referring to a straight man with extensive platonic friendships with lesbians, but these usages are uncommon in mainstream sexual culture.
In the case of friendships between lesbians and gay men, the term dyke diva describes the woman in the relationship. A straight man of platonic affinity with gay men is a [:)][:)][:)] stag; again, the usage is rare in mainstream sexual culture.
