well, i studied car deisgn in the states, but it is hard to get hired by company; ford, gm, whatever..

but my goal is to have my own garage/shop, so i can design and sell bodykitsparts with my brand name, something like that..anything custom/fabricating stuff..
I've learned how to do fiberglass, 2 part molding, painting, etc.. from the design school,.

Just wanted to take further study, and I found the place in toronto teach doing fabrication stuff, so I am taking that course..that is why I am moving to Toronto.

you'll like the GTA, but there are a tonn of f***tards round here that don't get the message of street racing is Illegal in that area of the GTA, not to mention woodbridge is ful of cops that will dick you around for having a modded car.
I was the only member on this board with a Yellow Focus Sedan, and a 2002+ Euro Facelift on a sedan.

That's Italianville and the only name that isn't Handicapped Parking worthy :P :ph34r:

Of course it's also Copsville right now thanks to the brain dead asshats who try to recreate the Fast & The Furious there <_<

I have the same problem with the MP's here...if I drive the stang in the evening, the 35% tint looks darker than it is, and I have them tail me, or they will take different routes through the neighbourhood to meet up with me at different intersections to get a look at me and/or the car...it's as if they don't like people that AREN'T them having a nice car...

With a car as nice as yours, driving in Woodbridge will be an... *ahem* education. Doubly so from the ricer crowd who think that APC means Amazing Products Company.

Daily driver 2: 2006 Subaru Legacy GT

COBB Stage 1+ package - AccessPort tuner, COBB intake and airbox. Stage 2 coming shortly - COBB 3" AT stainless DP and race cat, custom 3" Magnaflow-based exhaust and Stage 2 COBB tune.

dude i was thinking of moving back to toronto too.. i was on craigslist a few minutes ago... i saw a new loft apt downtown for CDN $240k

http://toronto.craigslist.org/rfs/350838371.html

ridiculous. real estate is such a steal in toronto how could it be so bad up there?

i have lived NYC area, i am in downtown SF right now.. i still have a soft spot for toronto. tons of good food, clean.. and did i mention stupid cheap housing?!

if it didnt freeze for half the yr and income tax is like.. 50% i would so be there... but then again.. if those two things changed.. everyone would be there and real estate wouldn't be so cheap anymore ha :(

240K for a loft is pricey for me.
We have a 170K house with 1 acre lot.
Fresh air, nice neighboors...
To each their own taste.
but, the same house as mine in the city is about 300K, so I'll stay in the rural sub for now.
Have fun in T.O. It's a great city, always something to do.
