[charliekuney]

(° ) °) + (y) = That car

Oh my God, I just realized what those were. Hazwan uses them all the time on Facebook, but I never understood...

[SZfiftyfour]

I think it really means thumbs up. I use it in a different context, ever since I seen that one gif -:P(|)-.
Anyway, I was just saying the car is a sexy beast

[A18A]

lol yes it does normally mean a thumbs up, but it could also mean that haha. anyway yes congratulations on a very well deserved win :thumbup:

[cubert]

[Rendon LX-i]

Congrats....You earned it man....

[Hash_man_Se_i]

Congrats on the win. Great 3g, well deserved.

[thegreatdane]

Wow. Thank you for the kind words guys! I didn't think my sedan was going to win this so I'm very honored. The other cars were all awesome. I know most of them have a lot of hard work behind them and they deserve the title just as well in my opinion. It was difficult for me as well to decide who to vote for.

And I hope to have a new strong contender for the AOY when I finish my Aerodeck some day :)

[frantik]

your sedan is on my short list of greatest 3geez ever.. well deserved win

Awesome thanks a lot Tom! :)

Well you probably have a better chance of finding one than anyone else since your in Malaysia. And installing it should be much easier for you because your car is already RHD.
