The reason I'm always broke - Dustin's Supercharged 86
After waiting what seemed like an eternity I finally got my car. I made a 573 mile trip to Nebraska to pick up the FRS I want. Yes the trip was a bit excessive but it was good fun.

My brother made the trip with me. He's one of the reasons I'm getting this car. He has owned an original AE86 for going on close to a decade and he's pretty stoked I'm getting this. If I didn't trade in a car on the FR-S, I would've made the cruise in his Levin.

|
Congrats man! I actually looked and considered that exact car but I just went and ordered a new one at the Scion dealership in Omaha.
|
where are the new pics!?!?!?!? Congrats! Just picked mine up last week! Beyond happy with my purchase!
|
My camera battery was dead before I left. And to be honest, all day yesterday was me catching up on sleep. I was up pretty much he whole 23 hours of the trip going off of about 5 hours of sleep from the night before. I'll try to get some pics today.
|
It's been raining today so no pics. But I did pick something up for it today. Nothing big but then again I won't be getting anything big for it for a while. I'll try to have it done by this weekend when the weather is better.
|
I did take one pic today. A little hazy but eh..........whatever.

Where did you pick it up in Nebraska, curious lol. At least you made it home before the snow storm that is about to ravage us here in Nebraska.
