Good evening everyone. Went to the local collectors guild to see about finding a mini monte of my white one, and unfortunately they didn't have one. They had an 00 with the surfboard spoiler and an 03 with the spoiler like mine but it was silver and it didn't have the sunroof, oh well the search continues

Ahh one more class... Watching some old Steve Jobs videos right now, such a great speaker. I hated his business tactics, but the way he got things done was amazing.

By the looks of things, I may just grab the 03 and fabricate a sunroof for it and paint it white. It would make a nice project to finish off winter with

Evening guys.
Getting ready to watch some more Olympics coverage tonight. So far luge coverage has been shown after midnight which I have not been happy about.
Luge on board, 80+ mph. Absolutely crazy.

evening everyone, hope everyone is doing OK.....Olympics have been so so this year, I wish there were more live events during the early evening.
Cool looking cars David...
I had an interesting drive to work today...I got on the PA turnpike and all hell broke loose on the car.......Not really but, the service brakes, then the service brake assist and then the service traction control messages came on followed by a bunch of dings and dongs.....
I thought the worst was gonna happen but nothing really happened. I got to work, shut the car off for a minute and fired it back up and it all started all over again. Same thing during lunch and on the way home, I got to the gas station and was parking, I looked down and the traction light and brake light was off...
So I'm hoping it was just a coincidence and I'll see how it does in the AM.....
Another thing I noticed is when it's this cold 20* and under my 'tighten gas cap' message doesn't come on at all. My CEL light has been on for over a year now and I didn't drive last winter because my winter Monte was running then.....
Ok, that's all with me, have a great evening....

Sounds likes some silly stuff for sure!
Kinda scary actually... without brakes its definitely an issue.. I hope it clears itself and allows you to get around without any problems!
Be sure to keep us posted...Hope its something simple like a loose or corroted wire.
Thanks for checking in! Its always A PLEASURE TO SEE YOU ON HERE!

1/18 scale... It's the one I started with and at a great price...... Grab it up... Now all you need is a 2003 SS (any colour) and you will have your mini 2002 Limited Edition...
