I'll be living on South Beach, so when you say 40-50 I assume you mean all gens.

be careful

Speaking of criminology, be aware that many Rx-7s get stolen in Miami, especially Miami Beach. My stepdad had 3 Rx-7s stolen from South Beach in 6 months. Not to scare you, but better safe than sorry. South Beach is different from the rest of the world. If you have a clean FD and can keep it from breaking down / getting stolen, you'll have a lot of fun in this area. And yes, there's about 20 FDs that are willing to hang out regularly. Stay away from ghetto shops with "street reputation". Take care.

Wise words, I keep my p99 on me at all times. I need to do some research on kill switches to deactivate the battery when i'm not in the car. Any info about that?

I sport a colt combat commander thats as modified as my car

Sometimes when I park my car in a place i dont feel comfortable with I pull a fuse or two from under the hood and maybe unplug essential plugs that way the thief couldn't just break my window and drive off, They would have to know the car real good to get it started.

I also have an alarm

Also make sure you have that P99 at all times till you know your way around Miami. it can get shady in a few areas.

Brickell is the area I'll be staying in, the place at south beach does'nt have covered parking. The Fuse trick is a good idea, Hope to see alot of you guys there.
