      Whats up, I'm originally from Minot North Dakota, parents were not in the Air Force, my family is just from there. I am very proud of where I am from. I am now in the Air Force though. I put Minot as my number one choice, but they gave me Okinawa Japan, which I am definately not complaining about because I have been into Japanese cars for a long time. I now have this 1996 Subaru Impreza WRX, and I Love It! but sadly I got T-boned the other day, it was not my fault so it will be fixed for free for me anyways not the other driver. One thing that really bothers me everyday is all of the Americans here that know nothing about cars, but they go buy a regular Skyline not a GT-R, and just fly around in it thinking they are Paul Walker or something. It makes kinda upset to think of all the Americans into JDM stuff that don't get to come here. I've even been laughed at for taking good care of this car, and it gets frustrating trying to explain why JDM parts are cool.

      I also did two years of autobody in highschool, where I repainted my 1994 Ford Probe GT that I had at the time. I wanted to do a KLZE swap on it but never did, then I purchased a 2004 Acura RSX Type-S which is still in Minot that my dad is trying to sell. $13,000 if anyone wants anymore info about it. Oh, and I don't like to admit it but I also had a 1999 Pontiac Sunfire for a couple of months for my first car.

 

 

This is the day that I purchased it. $3500, only 80,000 km, about 60,000mi
