Well, thanks to a new house and a new child (1yr old now ) getting to have a fun toy car around wasn't a viable, affordable option anymore Last week I managed to sell the rx8 to a great guy who i think will treat it well.

Also sold our 98 GMC and purchased a 2008 Nissan Titan, 4 dr truck. It's nowhere near as much fun to drive and i miss my old car already, but i had to make a hard choice. I had the rx8 for almost 2.5 years and drove 12k on it, it didn't make sense to keep it around.

You guys as a group have been fantastic, I will miss having the car to take pictures of as the titan is not a looker

Keep on rotoring, peace out!

You can sell the car, but you can't escape the dreams.

Good luck, Leo. Hopefully you'll get another rotary rocket one day.

I'm crying right now

Wah wah wah

 

yeah, i almost broke my neck today when i saw one parked just like my old one. Such a nice car

 

hate to see you go, but you will be back..

beers

 

Gah! I hope I never have to do that but you never know where life takes you. I think I'd fall into a deep depression if I had to sell it lol

 

What the heck is going on ? You get marry have kids and you have to give up your sport car ...... WHY ?...... Is it us who have to sacrifice our toys , maybe they need to give something up to. I've been reading quite a few post like this one and it''s getting scary. Come on man, fight a little bit .........

 

Well they have to give up alcohol, smoking and anything hazardous to the child for over a year. Would you give up drinking for to keep your 8???

 

Not enough . And what if she does'nt have to give anything up , cause she does'nt do any .

No way in hell will i give up the beer , I"ll do like I do now. I hide it in the garage and say that was from last week .

 

I'm thinking of having another child. This will be my 2nd and LAST! 2 kids will fit in my beloved and therefore no mo kiddys.
And on top of it, I'm looking to buy a house. I've sacrificed alot for my lil girl, but not my car.

 

Stop with the kids other wise I'll see you in a ........ Mini Van .

 

Hell to the NO!!!!! Never!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

That's what you think.

Besides mini vans are much more practicle than those SUV's

 

I made a deal with my girlfriend ;

Once we are married and have kids, she gets the RX8, and I get a 2 seater.
She will have a 4 door big enough to hold the kids, and I get a new car!!!!

 

I told my wife that when we have kids my rx8 is staying. No matter what. It has 4 seats, 4 doors and and will be paid off soon. She knows my car is not going anywhere. I think she secretly loves it more than I do. Not likely but I went to the garage the other day and saw he wiping the hood down, after I waxed it, with a terry cloth.

 

Those are the deals I like .......

 

BRILLIANT.
But what of Steph's MR2? Weekend toy???

 

Weekend toy/convertible FTW!!
The plan is a 2zz-ge swap(unless we can figure out how to fit a 13b in there) , roll the fenders to fit more rubber, then strip the car to bare bones.
But we got PLENTY of time before kids. Which leaves more time to save more $$, for the kids and the cars

How presumptuous.

 

yep,

glad you are back..

beers
