I was out for a little drive last night, and I saw a running 1G on the road! What made it even more rare was the fact I was also driving my 1G. I can't tell you the last time I've seen 2 DSMs on the road on the same day, nevermind at the same time rotflmao

I don't think he's on here. Brendan W built his car for him. I pulled up to a light with him and asked if it was turbo, and then if it was modded. He was like 'oh yeah!' with a huge smile. Then he asked if I was turbo. I replied, of course...its the only way to go! Then he asked if I was Kevin lmao. Let's just say I'm sure he wants more mods now lol.

Any DSM on the road is definitely a rare sighting. I would see them fairly regularly when I worked in Mississauga but in the past 2 years since transferring back to Aurora I hadn't seen a single DSM until a week ago. And in one day I saw two! Both 2g though.

I see 2Gs somewhat regularly, 1Gs are pretty rare to see (besides my own). I've put on about 12k on my 1G in the past month and a half so it's probably the most driven DSM in the world right now. There aren't too many 1Gs around that actually see the light of day much.

Well if there is enough interest we could probably make a good size meet happen around here.

His name is Tyler, didn't build the car, just helped swap the motor and a bunch of other stuff. He's a good friend of mine, not on here yet, but will be soon. The 3 of us will have to go for a cruise soon Kevin as mines off the road it a couple weeks.
