Bought my mazda!
 
so i got my car in april of '04 on lease figuring id move on to another sports car when the lease was up, but i was thinking recently i just can't let her go, I love this car too much. The lease company sent me a letter offering me an unsecured loan to buy the car. So I called her up, told her basically I wanted a discounted price off the residual value or else they can have fun writing off the difference when i turn it in. Shockingly that worked and she gave me a deal (about $1k off which aint terrible black book wise). At 6.64% apr, my cars title, and not having to pay my overmileage charge (4k miles and counting) it was hard to argue against it so I pulled the trigger and have openned the door to modification (i started a few months early with a bunch of brake upgrades though hehe). So hooray.

I assume you already have a 12 page list of parts to get since you've had it so long. Have fun with it!

dont forget your blinker fluid...

Feras 01-24-2007 12:41 PM

i think i'll go aftermarket with the blinker fluid, the $1500 she quoted sounded shady :lol2:

N rider89 01-24-2007 06:13 PM
