I tell ya later, long story.

What do you think a shop space would rent for?

depends on how big you're thinking. I'm thinking pretty small. i work in property management, so maybe i could get a deal on a smaller warehouse space for parts storage/enthusiast based research & development and repair. haha

[Gerta]

I might be down.

I need a place to keep my car in seattle when I'm going to UW :(

1) When you're at UW you don't need a car.
2) When you have a car at UW you won't ever move it because you won't want to repark/walk anywhere.
3) When you have a car at UW everyone will know and you will forever be bombarded with requests to use it.

You get a free bus pass, use the snot out of it.

Source: had two cars and 2-3 motorcycles at UW, moved there from out of state and lived in the dorms, frats, and off campus.

Thanks for the advice.
Out of curiosity, what did you major in?

Informatics with a focus in Human Computer Interaction. PM me if you want to talk UW and career things. I'm in charge of internships at the company that I'm at and have worked a ton of different jobs in different career paths. I can answer a lot of questions about UW and work thereafter if you'd like. Mostly in highish tech.

Quoted for the truth. About to finish my last year there, you definitely don't need a car at all.

[DrJosh]

You'll want a car if you want to do anything outside of the city.

^Flexcar E30?

Zipcar, Car2go serve you there. $200+/month for a car you barely touch is rough. Plus dat free bus pass.

[ahrensNW]

I have family half an hour north of the campus. Thinking about just leaving my car with them. Fudge door dings on a fresh paint job.

[kid325e]

There you go. Bus pass, Bicycle, and family with a parking spot for you and you should be set.

Whatever you do, don't sell it or wreck it, you'll never forgive yourself.

So i'm having a BBQ/Housewarming party at my place on the 1st of August which is a Saturday. Really want to have a few E30's parked outside and maybe get to know the locals a bit better (the ones I don't know)..

It's an open house style party - doors open at 3 and party goes on till it's over. I figure most family and coworkers will show up from 3-7ish then after that the real fun starts... If you want info/details PM me!

There will be beer, food, and good times. If we get enough "car guys" there later in the evening we can start setting laptimes in my racing simulator - Assetto Corsa and iracing on deck; for those familiar with my old place in Seattle, you should come by!!
