I easily could have said fuck off, but didn't. He was very apologetic and his friend was the one being a ****. His car is literally in my garage and I have his cash in my safe. I really thought about saying "tell your friend it's $12k" (I had a deal for $10k).
I guess I got a free track day out of it. I drove on his tires and pads (and car).
I'm most pissed because I lost out on that Lotus Elise too. Now I have neither, and both were great prices- probably about 20% below market value. The search continues...
Maybe I'll just drive the Miata for another season or something. Just searching for a car is stressful. For maybe I'll just do a month long vacation or something. That was fun.
I'll tell you though, I was probably an hour from buying a bunch of expensive mods. I only bought a sandwich plate for an oil cooler, but I had tabs open for other more expensive stuff (camber plates, brembo brakes)
