Default Chose a Diamond Star over a Turbo for my tC

I sold out....

Yet I'm not ashamed.

Given the choice of a new Turbo system for my tC or a new Mitsubishi.... I chose the Mitsubishi. Evo?.... Eclipse?....

See for yourself.

Heh... maybe It's because I'm getting old, but having a fast, high maintenance car just doesn't appeal to me anymore. Hell, I've been downgrading since I had my first car anyway lol. (AMG Benz to Supra TT to several other cars till finally my current tC)

Or maybe its because we have "movie nights" with the hot neighbor chicks a little more often now .... Hmmm I dunno... heh

To the original poster: good job fighting off the mod bug! Now I demand pics of these neighbors you speak of.

Also, size isn't all that matters. We actually wanted the 65" but the picture quality just wasn't all there.

To those in the know, this display is the WD-57731 Which most enthusiasts that I've spoken with agree has the sharpest and most vivid picture quality of any DLP out there due to the 6-color wheel (CMYRGB vs the usual RGB) and the 150w Turbo Bulb (See, I Still got a Turbo somehow!)

And with it being a true 1080p display, it's ready for a PS3/Blu-ray or HD-DVD system once I decide which way to go. Right now it's hooked up to a High Def DVR and HDMI Upconverting DVD player and my DVDs and Hi def Channels have never looked this good.

With that claim in mind.... screenshots will be posted up soon heh.

Good Choice! So you know what I'm talking about as far as display quality
