She's dead...

I had known this day would come, but I hadn't hoped for it to come so soon. I was on my way to work this morning, and I had been trying to be as cautious as I could with my baby. But, things just didn't seem to be sounding right with her. I was only but a few minutes away from work. That's all I had to do was get her to work, and then she would have served her full purpose. But, some things just weren't meant to continue on.

Well, at approximately 2:55 a.m. today the Civ died. Kinda sad, but she took her last breaths, and called it at that. I'm kinda depressed, and at the same time, fairly happy too. But let me just say, that car gave me the best races I have ever come by. I'll miss that little motor that has been keeping her going. It's served it's purpose, and now it's time for a new life to be born within the Civ. Only a few months and several paychecks seperate me from the new birth of my Civ. As far as things go now, I can take off my insurance, and start saving.

In a way, I feel robbed. Because I just spent the time and money buying those performance parts. Having them installed, and barely feeling as though I had the time to enjoy the new victories that I had come upon. But, I did have those small precious moments. I did get few victories. I never had the opportunity to race my father, and I will never know where this Civ stood compared to his car. Although, come the rebirth of her, I will make sure that I find out first hand. As for now, I'm going to get a bus pass. Because that my friends, is the price I have to pay now...

And now it's time to move on to bigger and better things. :bigthumb:

Sorry to hear your loss ... I am dangling over a similar fate any day now *sigh*

Well its bad that it happened, but like you say, atleast now you can start saving for the engine swap.

NOOOOOOO!

so whats next?

that was damn quick, I thought the nobel steed would last a little longer. Sorry about your loss Civ.

Sorry about your loss. Just watch out for sticky seats on the bus.

damn.

i'm sorry to hear that.

be sure to get a metro card, they might give you discount rates.

Oh well soon enough it'll have the b16 in there and you won't miss the old d series again

wow that really ended sooner then expected. well dont' worry when you have your new B16A in there, the wind in your face will help dry the tears.

Sorry about your car, it sucks when they die. Look at it this way, oppertunity for exersize and a much faster car.

turbocharge it... that will fix it right up...


:evillol:



bigger and better things my friend... bigger and better things.

I thought hondas were invincible ;)

now you're fully naturally aspirated.

Leg power!


hehe

Well now that thing in your sig about Musashi saying your car is slow is REALY true :biggrin:.

Nah, rather than slow it's just dead. Meh...shoite happens..

Yea.. Shite does happen :(. How much do you have saved up thus far?

$500 and that's it thus far. But once I take my insurance off, that will add up really quick. My tax returns didn't do me a whole lot of good either. Had to put that money towards other matters. So, that's it.

We need the gorey details of what happened.

If you were any funnier, I might have managed a smile.

I know this won't ease the pain much, but we lowered the flags in Mexico today for your loss.
I can relate to your loss. I had a pet hamster once that got lose in the house. We also had a wild mouse in the house that my Dad was trying to catch. Well he put out a trap but never caught the mouse, I have a hard time saying this. A tear comes to my eye everytime I think about it, but the trap got poor "Buddy" and killed him (or her) deader than a fuckin door nail.
At this time I'd like your address so I can send flowers.

With deepest sympathy,

haha..i can see how your pet mouse dying definitely relates to a honda motor dying. Poor little cylinderically challenged honda.

First all, it wasn't a mouse. It was Buddy, a hampster.
You have no respect for the dead.
May the flee's of a thousand camels infest your arm pits.
