Ya know this place is great...

The other day I posted a thread about tire dressing, it wasnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t long and I had a PM from someone wanting to help me out. They were willing to give me some dressing to try free of charge. I thought that was cool, then they donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t want me to pay them back for the shipping either! I would expect this from a vendor but this is someone taking out of their stock to let me try something new. That is what Autopa is all about. I am not going to post his name because I donÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t want him to get bombarded with PM`s and emails of people wanting free stuff. But I will say that he return address will be on that package and he will be getting something in return, I am not sure what yet but I will pay him back for being a good Autopian!

Ya know, I really need to try a new IMPORTED SPORTS CAR. I really like Vipers and Corvettes, but I just think a new IMPORTED SPORTS CAR would really help me out.

I have never tried a Supra or a 3000GT before......

aw, forget it!

The same thing happen to me a couple of days ago. There was a thread about IHG and GEPC. Intermezzo offered publicly to send me a sample amount from his personal stock to try prior to me purchasing some!!:xyxthumbs I declined because of his truthful and unbiased posts and detailing expertice I purchased some GEPC just because of his recommendation. I found it very generous on his part to make this offer. That`s what so good about this forum. Good people and honest advice.

:xyxthumbs :wavey

This has happened to me in the past as well. It`s great! I hope others keep it up. This kind of automotive kinship is what it`s all about!:up Autopian Events

I dont think I have been offered any samples, but I have been offered great advice and friendship over the last year, Autopia is great.

Obviously, anyone with some spare Zaino, Blackfire, 303 who wants to send me some as part of my wedding presents, I would not object

Now, anyone here with a spare Lightning?

**Jngrbrdman** · 12-18-2002, 03:31 PM

I`ve got two of em on a shelf in my garage, one on a poster in my dungeon and one in my driveway (in my mind). You are welcome to any of them except the two on the shelf in my garage and the one on the poster in my dungeon.

**Mindflux** · 12-18-2002, 03:35 PM

Yep Yep, mighty nice people on here. I got a few samps from someone as well when I needed to try something.

**Nagchampa** · 12-18-2002, 05:07 PM

We should also remember people like NYdetailer who take time out of there schedule to offer help sessions. Genuinely great people here!

**Pats300zx** · 12-18-2002, 06:25 PM

I feel the same way as Redcarguy..Recently another forum member sent me a brand new bottle of P21S bodywork shampoo free of charge just so I could give it a try. This place is truely awesome...:up

This place is great. The members as you know usually go out of their way to assist another member, whether sending samples, help sessions, or just giving advice on the forum. I just got a quick response from several people on thread I just started.

Autopia is the best forum I visit on the net.

Thanks everybody.

I don`t feel right about buying one right now. I`m gonna wait till I have more of a downpayment.

I`ve got an X-plan pin but would be happy with a used 02 especially if you sent me yours to test out for a few years

**Scottwax** · 12-18-2002, 08:04 PM

I`ve been able to work a few trades also. Nice to see how most of the people here work together to help us all become better detailers and become more informed on a wide variety of products.

**russeus** · 12-18-2002, 08:52 PM

As a frequent visitor and infrequent poster, I have to chime in on this love-fest. What`s truly impressive about this site is the lack of an elitist attitude. The regular pros - RCG, Scottwax, Jngr, etc go out of their way to help out new members as well as their fellow pros.

It`s great to be able to log on & soak up some of the expertise routinely volunteered by many of the experienced detailers. Keep up the great work! :up
