Remember.  You made a promise to the previous owner to never drive it in the rain. Ever.  Never ever.

He sent me this text last night, when I sent him the photos , "glad to see I picked the right family for this car."

what a car it is my friend! Never thought Mitsu could be so good! Maybe would have never gotten into Honda Game if I discovered these sooner. Think of your Si just cranked up to 12.

Got her a little dirty as I met some friends camping 

Old owner of course wouldnt approve

nothing makes me happier than seeing a rally car return to its roots brother!  and hey we all know the best way to get that dust off is with more speed!

looks like a gorgeous spot, and some cool rigs showed up there (vanagon and GX460s?)

Yes my friend. We had GX460 + Vanagon + Tacoma truck + 200 series LC + 80 series LC . Not all pictured.  Car is doing fantastic , nothig to report. 

 

Going to get some fresh oil in it this Sunday hopefully, and keep enjoying. Definitely my top 3 ownership/enjoyment in this life.  Truly an amazing machine - one that you have to own to appreciate. Stil need to install tires (sitting in warehouse)

 

So many are on BaT all day - still wish mine was white .. and not the grey.. but alas.. it is a great spec and condition of the car I

aquired. 

 

Currently filthy and embarassing :

Why do you always do this. 

 

Car is not for sale.  You call me up and plead your case that you would be a great caretaker etc etc. 

 

Are you a salesman in your day job? devil

If you don't force bmw88rider to do some sort of malarkey to buy the car, I'm going to be severely disappointed.

Wait, we need a Worst car selling experience thread.  The wringer must be exercised thoroughly.

I guess I have a talent to buy cars that aren't for sale. This is the 3rd one in 8 years.

It'll match my Miata. I'll have an all TI gray colored turbo 4 cylinder garage. Both about the same HP as well. One will just have more traction than the other.

Last day with the car. 

 

  • Heading out to the warehouse to pick it up later today.
  • Then I will give it a wash (doesn't need it).
  • Will also turn on the radio for the first time, since new buyer here  inquired.
