Well right now, SWFL is one of the hardest hit areas economically by this recession we are in. However there are still jobs, just depends on what you do, and what you want to be paid. Its a beautiful area, just since the housing market has gone to shit, we have taken a heafty hit.

You too. I didn't see you come around the corner until after I pulled into my space, then I saw you come through the parking lot. The car looks real good, better than I thought, and it sounds awesome.
I called my friend Brian (who used to own a black m6), and I asked what year his was, because his was rear ended, never fixed right, and he traded it in. His was a 2004, and I told him that you bought a 2006 Black M6, and he immediately said "not the one from Roger Dean, right?" and I'm like "well actually...". I guess he knew the guy that used to own it, and it was rear ended, not badly or anything, but the shop that fixed it did a horrible job, and I guess the bumper kept coming loose, the side skirts kept coming off, etc. I think that contributes to your back piece falling off. Anyway, it's a good car mechanically, but keep an eye on some of the cosmetics. It's good your dad owns a shop just incase something comes loose or breaks. He said Roger Dean gave his friend $17k for it on trade in, and I rorget what you said you paid for it. But anyway, your suspicions were accurate on it being hit and repaired. Nothing major. Kudos again on it!
Wow, thanks bro i appreciate that info. Ill probably end up buying a new rear bumper and having that repainted anyways just becuase im nit picky with that stuff, but in due time. I think i might buy some magnaflow mufflers tomorow from a guy, found them on craigslist, real cheap and hes in cape coral, so ill see. If i dont like them, theyre coming off as soon as they went on lol
Yeah, I really like the carbon fiber look with the wheels. I'm quite impressed, I think you, besides Dan (Travis is getting there) that has had their SRT the longest, and it still looks great
Are you saying my car looks like ass or that I've owned it for awhile?

I wouldn't move down here right now. A lot of companies are reducing hours and cutting positions. The Housing Market crash Killed SWFLA. So many businesses aren't doing too well and there's a lot of foreclosures in the housing market. Until this area rebounds I would stay away.
Dayum, just got back from the beach and i am rather CRISP! lol. Oh so i pop my trunk this morning to get out my football and radio for the beach, and notice my rear bumper loook a bit differnt....
So you know that cover part that says GTO?
Well. It came off... its somewhere im not sure where but its not on the car. lol So im assuming, either it flew off while i was doing 140mph last night on the bridge, OR someone stole it lol. Anyways, dad gets parts at wholesale price so i already have a new on on thee way. Should be here tomorow or monday.
BTW, the goat suprises me, i didnt exactly know what i had until i got her opened up on the bridge, 140mph in 4th gear, its a 6 speed. lol. And it barks 3rd gear reaaaaal nice like lol.
i wanna race and i think 6th gear is just for cruising on the interstate... lol
I was down in Fort Myer's all last week and only saw one stock looking red SRT-4 the whole time down...you guys must be in hiding...I know a few of you are around...I avoided the ricer turn out at the Target/TJ Max on 41 because we have similar ricer scene here in ATL...I am hoping to move down there soon...is there a track near by at least?
Where did you see the red one? Might have been me. There is an 1/8th mile track about 30 minutes from here and a 1/4 mile track 2 hours away. There's plenty of us down here, although it seems like everybody is selling lately.

it was on Colonial near 75...the car had no tint on the windows unlike yours in the pic...the only other one I have seen was a white one in Lehigh Acres off of Lee when I was visiting back in August last year...
