    I Sold My Car...

    I did, I already miss "Black Betty" and she is still parked in the driveway. I collect payment on Friday. I will miss her, although I will be on to bigger and better (vr4's!) in the future. As of right now, I will be taking possession of a 05 GXP Grand Prix. Was one of the hardest decisions of my life so far....Mind you im only 18.
    Ahhh, One last fix. And it would literally be perfect for ......prolly a week BUT! thats still a week of perfection.

    NO, I sold it because I needed something that was cheaper to maintain and drive. I absolutely LOVE this car, I just could not afford the car and tuition. I found the GXP for a hell of price at the same time.


    I WILL STILL BE INVOLVED IN THE FORUM. You are a little like family, except I will be the damn uncle that doesnt have a 3s

    I feel so bad for you guys with your non running cars. My Stealth was down for a total of about 2 weeks over a few different repairs in SIX YEARS. I have put 10k miles on my VR-4 in 5 months with not a single problem.

    Either you guys have bad luck or I have REALLY good luck with my cars.

    Well I had a spun bearing and computer issues. That could be considered bad luck. I rebuilt the engine and the ECU shit at about 250 miles , about to fix that though.
