wow, car in process of sale..
So last I talked with you guys, I was going to hold off parting it out blah blah, and keeping the car for some time.
That exact night, I got a message from a forum member here, and gave me an offer for the asking price. I thought it was a 50/50 shot, but the buyer seems pretty serious, and tomorrow I will be calling his bank.
Sooooo.. If it goes through (although still a chance it will fall through), looks like I will be officially finished here.
I have mixed feelings right now, excited to be car shopping but at the same time, I never had so much fun and met so many great enthusiasts in the region. I went off the modding scene for a while, and thought I would never come back (wasn't really hardcore, didn't have the money in college, still not sure how kids dumped 20k in to their projects in highschool/college years).
This car brought back my modding roots, something I always loved since I was a child. My goal was Function and Form (yes I know its near impossible) but I think I achieved my goal with this car. If I lived in a house with free spaces to park multiple cars, I would of kept this car for a very very long time.
I think this car looks f'n amazing, a blank canvas to mod, simple, and has a attitude compared to a Miata. I've never had so many compliments on a car, and I've driven cars twice, 3 times the cost of this car.
Every moment I had with this car, the experience and the emotions it gave me, maybe more significant than some people I've met in my life. It brought joy, anger, confusion, love, everything that you can feel towards a human.
Some owners move on, never looking back or talking down on the twins with buyers remorse. I'd like to appreciate the moments we had, and learn from them. This is a fantastic fucking car, and if you can't comprehend the fact that you are cross shopping with cars twice the price range/twice the power/twice the size, its already too good in its class (or there is not equivalent in the class). Its a classic car without it being classic.
I hope to be re-united to the twins in the future, when my life enables me to have a project car in my own garage that I can tinker in. Until then, fairwell, adieu, sayonara to my favorite car I have ever owned.
