Nah, I don't think I'll ever leave the DSM world. It's in the blood.
I just need a short break from the tuner scene for a bit. It's such a distraction this thing... I'm busy surfing EBay and DSMTuner classifieds for aftermarket parts, when I
really should be doing research or HW on my laptop instead, lol.
david-b, I currently have a local tow truck driver that's really interested in the car. He actually towed my car once (yes, ofcourse, that's where all DSMs like to "chill" and "hang-out", their favorite spot: on the flat bed of a tow truck, lmao). He offered $12,000 cash for it. He's coming to take a look at it this Tuesday, let's see where that goes. I can't beleive I'm actually selling it... it's like I'm breaking up with my girlfriend of 16 years or something. I will post a formal ad in the classifieds if it doesnt sell locally, or put it up on EBay.
Blackcrow64, it's well worth the money; every time I drive my Spyder, it is the
ultimate stress release. I feel
on top of the world in that car. The sound of the turbo spooling, the BOV squeeling, the growl from the cams and the exhaust...it's a thrill that never gets old for me. The very
knowledge of having a fully built 6-bolt beast under that vented hood, regardless of the fact that the vehicle is no where near it's potential at present, is satisfying enough. It's funny to see people back off once they hear the turbo. And I don't even street race. I started out building it as a cruiser, and like I said, priorities priorities...it ended up an incomplete drag car with that silly overdone motor that I absolutely
did not need. But every time someone on the freeway gives me a shiteatin' grin with a thumbs up, it makes every single penny and and every single second I spent on this car worth it. Sigh... I can't wait to graduate and finally blow like $40,000 on a DSM. YesI'mretarded.
