I've made a few simple modifications to some cars I've owned: a 2003 Toyota Sequoia Limited, a 1999 Volkswagen Passat GLX, and a 2002 Mazda MPV ES. I hope the experiences I've encountered will be helpful for fellow owners and enthusiasts. Because the Passat, the MPV, and the Sequoia are all sold, I will no longer update those sections. However, I will continue to keep all the information online.

In the spring of 2005 I purchased a brand new Suzuki Burgman Type S and got my motorcycle endorsement over the summer. The Burgman is a 400cc "maxi-scooter" with a lot of zip and is great fun to ride.

My latest aquisition is a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STI--300 hp and 300 lb-ft of rally-inspired fun!

Thanks for visiting.

If you're looking for more information about the Passat or the MPV make sure you visit PassatWorld Forums (formerly ClubB5.com)and MPVClub.com because there are a lot of helpful people out there. If you're interested in other Volkswagen vehicles, VWVortex.com is where my obsession got started. 

My obsession has spread to my brother who went from a brand-new VW GTI to a modified R32 in less than one year. I'm so jealous! He's even made a web page with pictures and info on his R32. With my apologies to his wallet, click the image below to visit his site:

For local VW enthusiasts check out VW Drivers of Vancouver where I'm sure you'll encounter "Dixie" in her second life. My Passat will always have a special place in my heart (that's why there's a VW sticker on the truck), but to all the great people I've shared information with, met at get-togethers, cruises (Krispy Kreme!) and car shows, here's to new experiences --so long, and thanks for all the fish!
