Life IS good, um, sort of
GOT MY NEW ZX TODAY!!
Bet you can't tell I'm happy. The search is finally over.
I lucked out really. My brother was driving by this car dealership about a week ago and calls me to tell me there is a 300zx sitting in the way back of the lot. I drive over in the current beater to check it out. Imagine my surprise, there sitting in the back of the lot is this gleaming silver 87 turbo! NO rust, NO beat up body panels, NO missing trim, Headliner is INTACT, Rims are sharp, and original, in short, an excellent example of what i would call an older restoration(almost). The car has 87,000 on the Odometer, 5 spd, black and grey cloth(oh well) interior, no digital dash(bummer). But she still has power seats, adj. suspension, turbo, ect..
So I go in to the dealer, looking for a sales person to rip me a new one with the price on this car, and get told that it is not theirs to sell!! Appearantly the bank repo'ed the car about 5 hours earlier.
One week later, she is sitting out in my driveway. AHHHHHH..
Now the problem is that I leave for training in about 8 days, and will be gone until June 21st! NOOOOOOO...............
