HAHAHAH And another one bites the dust.
This is the most common comment I get about my looks from anyone and everyone that comments about how I look like, x)

I work for a teen group home, and at work, almost everybody sees me as one of the kids, like "Are you a new kid in this house???" "Are you a new kid in this program???" O__O

... Let's just say ... I found the fountain of youth... ~_^

I KNEW someone was going to comment on how young I look, bwahahaha.

Keep guessing :P

I don't know why or how, but I love looking young!

The only thing that comes with looking young all the time is ... nobody respects me as my biological age LOL

I love it when people say I look 10 - 15 xD It's great!

And yezzir!

The story will definitely continue (:>

Glad to see that everything worked out for you and the journey continues.

Anyone reason why you didn't go for a 6MT this time around? From what I recall you didn't build the 7AT yet.

Cause I don't have confidence in myself to learn MTs.
I tried my friends' MT 335i he bought last year shortly after I bought my 2015 Z, and in the parking lot...I was like kinda stalling and burning his clutch.
Like 90% clueless on what I was doing, trying to do the correct steps in order just to get the car moving T_T

Ever since then, I don't feel comfortable nor have any confidence in myself to learn it

Otherwise I would definitely go for MT for the main purpose of them holding more TQ than the AT's lol.

milkcow500 · 07-28-2018, 10:30 PM

That's unfortunate. It would have been a perfect time to learn, since you'd have to upgrade the clutch anyways once you swap everything over.

You're right. I can't argue there..haha.

It is definitely unfortunate but, it's alright. I really enjoy 7AT as well, especially when my hand was injured and I was unable to really move or use it at all.

It definitely helped having an auto transmission for that time being, for if it was manual then I'd be really screwed.

I also like going fast...and only fast...haha.

I know that MT's make you feel more attached to the car but and I'm sure that's true, but I just don't think MT's are for me :3

Although I really wish I had confidence in myself to do so and nail it down xD

Each AT / MT has their pros and cons, just like everything else heh.

Hey, I've seen 12 yrs drive before.

Had one not long ago steal a car and take it on a joy ride. And he drove it like he stole it.

Until he crashed into a house during the police chase.

Hmm true, but did he crash it because of the disparity in tire sizes F/R??

Disparity in his IQ.

Had another 12 yr a couple years ago. Steal a car. Crashed during the chase. Jumped out of the car and was running through a couple of yards. State police shot him to death as he was reaching into his pants for a 9mm. His stepdad sued the state police and won. They found the stepdad dead of a drug overdose a couple of months later.

Ouch...that's kind of low IMO.

At least I am smart enough to be able to afford my situation that I am in and get to where I'm at currently..

Don't let them get to ya, they are just messing with you man. When you get Rusty's age you will be smiling when people say you 20 or 30 years younger than you are. I have been getting that since I was in my 40's and I just laugh and say Black don't crack. Asian same way! Own it....
