My car very well could be sold. I am excited. Heres the story:

I washed my car, and had it parked outside my house (like in the pic of my car for sale). I looked out the window while I was doing some computer work, and I see a man and woman looking at the car. So I go outside.

I speak with them both, they were a married couple, and they had happened to be driving by. The guy was all pumped about the car, and the wife was encouraging him ( he said, while looking at his new 2 door Accord coupe, but do we need another 2 door?, and his wife was like, why not?!)

He said he is going to call his bank about financing and then give me a call!

YAY!

It is so painfull selling a car, and then not getting much responce from alot of advertising. I was even thinking of trading her in... That would be taking a major hit. Blah.

Just excited and venting. The guy seemed really cool though. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Hey, good news man, What are you going to buy next? I know you said you didn't like the feel of the supra.

Takumi · 02-23-2002, 04:18 PM

Most likely a WRX. I saw DragonReborn at i-club.com *gasp*! Right now a 2.5 RS is my first choice, then an S14 myself.

*DSC* · 02-23-2002, 04:45 PM

It would be cool to say "I have the worlds largest 4 cyl engine" but I couldn't get rid of my baby.  How come your selling it dragon?

DragonReborn214 · 02-23-2002, 04:59 PM

Takumi is correct. I will be getting a black 2002 wrx (or maybe silver or white LOL).

I am selling because I have about 4000 dollars in taxes to pay, and 1500 on my credit card, and 2000 to pay for a roth IRA. So I am selling the car to pay for this junk, then putting a down payment on a wrx.

I want something that is factory turbocharged, so I won't have a hassle getting replacement parts (#### NISSAN AMERICA!!). Plus I like the idea of AWD-t pushing major horsies.

I am sad about getting rid of my 240, but when I graduate and am making more $$ I will most likely buy another and sr20 it, or just import a Japanese silvia.

I was going to buy an sr, but I have talked with a few people who have them, and I decided it wasn't worth the possible down time when the car would be my daily driver.

*transient* · 02-23-2002, 06:02 PM

Couldn't just get a beater for a while and sell it after you get the 240 back?

sil80 · 02-23-2002, 06:15 PM

Wow the car is nice... dont know if I could sell her. The WRX is extremelly nice but I do like the old 2.5 head lights better. I heard subbie is labeling the 2003 wrx as an sti.... is this true?

DragonReborn214 · 02-23-2002, 06:37 PM

Actually, the 240 was my beater between turbo cars. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> I had a 300zx tt, and I got the 240 to kind of cool off till I got another fast car, in hopes that I would mature a bit. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

The WRX will have an sti model in 2003, but there will still be the normal wrx as well. The sti is supposed to have 276 hp I believe.

I am planning on changing the headlights within the first few months of owning the car to morettes, which look like this:

that is how my car should look (with diff rims)

sil80 · 02-23-2002, 06:40 PM

Ya I like those lights but only depending on the color of the car. I have search ebay and a couple of other sights and have not found a set... did see some on United kindoms ebay site <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
