Well, recently my Maxima has been pissing me off... and I spend a lot of my time trolling craigslist for the common locals... Supra, 240sx, 240z, 280z, Fox body Mustang, 300zx, rx-7, anything that might give me some RWD Experience and enjoyment...
Well I came across an ad this morning with no price... a car, that is listed above, but had no price, so I figured, hey let me make an offer, even though I have no money, i have enough for a down payment to at least get papers signed and the ad taken down. So I exchanged e-mails with the gentleman and decided to make a 2 hour drive to look at the car.
As stated in the ad, the car was running (and might I say it sounded purdy) but was not moving, the clutch had recently been replaced, and now the car would not engage any gear but 4th :gotme: so I went out with pmohr to look at the car, and I was amazed that he accepted my offer...
Garage kept for the first 18 years of its life then sold in 05 to this guy, and now was possibly mine... the interior was the cleanest I had seen a non restored car of its age (1987), the car took a few seconds of cranking, but sounded clean as a whistle, and speaking of clean, there was no body rust what so ever, one small dent on the front left fender which could easily be hit out, and a very clean interior (aside from some cracks in the leather)... and one thing I have never had (aside from RWD), a 2 seater.. no more rear seats... oh and can't forget to mention the none leaking T Tops... well anyway... here is the baby.. and she only has 128k on her... oh, and a I might be picking up a VQ35 for her

That is all
