HHHHHHHHHHHHappy

Well we have a new Car. While we were looking Nikki printed out a bunch of ads off KSL.com and so we had like 15 to look at. We test drove a few but they were all kinda crappy. Then there was this one that i am pretty sure she printed off to be mean and cruel in a "look what you can't have" kinda way. Anyway, it was a Black '94 Pontiac Trans Am with a Corvette 350 LT1 and a Manual 6 speed. It also had Racing alloys, K&N Cold Air Intake, Edelbrock Lower controll arms, a Strut tower brace, T-Tops, Leather interior, a Hurst Short Throw Shifter, and only 67000 miles. Asking Price $6000, which is half of what the car was worth but still more than we had to pay. So we joked about taking it for a test drive and ended up actually doing it. Well go figure i love the car and coime to find out he has dropped the price to $5500 because he REALLY needs to sell the car having just gotten married. So we meet up again and take it up to Bountiful where Nikki's Brother has a Shop and look over the entire car Top to Bottom, Left to Right. Despite a few minor things here and there the car is actually in very good condition. So we go back and tell him what we found and offer him $5000 cash and he actually accepted. So i have been a very happy person for the last few days. My parents are taking bets on how long it will take for me to get my first speeding ticket being that it gets to 100mph in about 6.5 seconds. Hopefully i will have a chance to show you all and gloat in my good deal finding. Toodles

I wanna Drive too!! If not I'll settle for a ride. Heck, I'll even settle for an oogle at it while it's parked...

hrmmm.... I don't think you should allow anyone to oogle at it. It may lower the re-sell price...

Trust me. Kelley Blue Book asks about these kinda things.

Know what's sad? I think your truck gets better gas mileage than the Grand Prix right now. It's not feeling well. 300,000 miles will do that to a car.

It's not a truck. It's an environmentally un-friendly SUV. But still it gets 22 mpg. I can destroy the environment WHILE conserving fuel. The best of both worlds.
