My girlfriend needs a car, so we're on cars.com looking around. She's into 3000gt's because she loves mine, so we look up ones for sale around here. Low and behold my SL that I sold 5 months ago is back up for sale! and for almost $1k less than what I sold it! So we went and looked at it today, turns out the kid that bought it lost his job right after buying and just can't afford the payments. Everything about it is still the same, so if all goes well at the bank next Tuesday, i'll have my old SL back in the family :)
Driving it today made me realize I missed it a little :frown:
Good thing too cuz I wanted my clear corners back lol.

That would be pretty sweet if you could pick that car back up! Not only a 3/S but it holds some sentimental value. Good luck.

About 4k...only thing he did wrong was put a bubble in the sidewall in one of the tires...but I still have warranty coverage on those tires :D. But i'm gettin it for sure now, sometime tomorrow!

she loves it, just had to teach her to drive stick though...she doesn't quite get it 100% yet but she's getting there, I taught her how to shift without destroying synchros so I don't have to worry about that, she took to it really well though.
