WTF

Everytime I look at cars down here they are all OVER, well over their KBB value. I have gone to see 4 cars (miatas) and they were all 1 to 1.5K over KBB and this is private owners selling at dealer prices, WTF!


Anyways, bit the bullet bought a 96 Miata. So now I have a FWD and RWD small cars Woo fockin hoo, I paid $200 over KBB on this piece of shit. That can't even out run my HF, I've always thought the 1.8's were fairly quick, but their quick doesn't measure up to CRX quick, even when I had the Si in the HF it was probably quicker, faster than this miata. But yah, the woman gets the miata and I GET MY CRX BACK. So there fokers, I'm back, now I have to undo all the girlie mods done to the HF like ripping the pink seatcover, and burning it. Someone please locate me a decent priced tranny for a b16 cable clutch with no grinds, coz mines all focked.

Thats because cars that get decent gas mileage are going up in value, not to mention the market for used cars sucks ass right now.

Post pics of miata with said gf in it!

I'm going back to work on my CRX, as it is completely falling apart.

Just got a bike though, so eff it.

Good luck finding that tranny btw, CRX FOR THE WIN!

LMAO I know I went to an importer and they wanted 800 for just a tranny. Be careful on the bike Dave, just saw a horrible accident 2 weeks ago, old lady made a left turn in front of a cbr1k the dude died. I can still remember hearing the crunch of plastics since it happened in front of me. ShET it made me sell my freakin bike.

How about I drive over there, you adopt me, and we can build it together. MY JOB SUCKS NOW. I don't get paid in time, I'm getting laid off. Man this sucks. But yah, let me get situated in SC, ie. find another job, then I'd give you a ring. Got kids yet bro? Need one?

What is that?!? YET? Damn you man! Damn you!

Don't bother moving closer to me. Most of the good things about living down here are completely offset by having a career...which is hard to come by. I'm only staying until next summer at the latest. PAAACE to florida!


I seriously considered those Si's late last year and was seriously disappointed to not find one under $25k. I'm glad I stuck with the old honda's cause I would hate to have a car payment right now
or a wife
or kids

I don't blame you for not liking high dollar car payments. Originally my xB was getting a bit old and tired..i put 113k miles in less then 3 years and i felt like i needed a change anyway. so i traded that in for a decent base Si i found for 21'ish..the scion trade was 3400 so i financed the rest and i can BARELY afford the monthly payment+premium fuel+increased insurance..

but all those worries are completely forgotten the second i fire up that k20 and Smiley
