lol so i was following the highway patrol guy from Sf down 101 and then he changed lanes, went behind me and tailgated me for the longest time. Then he changed lanes and sped up a bit. There was a white mustang following me pretty closely too when i was following the patrol dude so she sped past me and then started to follow the patrol guy. When the patrol guy hit 80+ and the girl and i were still behind him, he pulled to the right and then pulled over the chick in the mustang. LOL then he waves at me with this arm gesture as if he wants me to pull over too so i do. Then he tells the girl off and she drives off and then he comes to my car and says "Oh i just wanted you to slow down, but why were you behind me for so long?" and i tell him, "Well youre highway patrol, people make room for you so i just follow behind so i dont get caught in traffic." so he tells me, "Stop it, slow down, and just cause people in front of you are driving 80 doesnt mean you can drive 80. Just slow down." Gawddd dammm... heart was racing... so when he walked to his car i redlined that **** to merge onto the freeway and drove 65 w/ cruise control on the rest of the 1hour drive....

nah he was gonna give it to the girl in the mustang. lol. he just wanted me to slow down, but since i pulled over he took my name down and said to drive 65 and that i could go. but i mean if you think about it, if i hadn't stopped... what are the chances he wouldnt pull over the girl and go looking for a blue rx8 on 101.... idkk as long as i dont get a ticket or citation. :D

extremely fully loaded with an amazing sounding Injen intake and black and red interior, and after the test drive, i was just, wow. wow the whole way home. im still wow at how amazing that was. and yes, i just got off the phone with my brother in law and we're gonna haggle them.. it was really nice though, and had that mica sparkle to it that really caught my eye
the other 2 i saw within being next door and across the street
LY with almost 50k miles, 6sp M/T, with black leather, not so fully loaded i believe, for $15k
and this was a big disappointment and i felt sorry for the 2 salesmen talking to me and my mom, but we saw a WWP, and it had about 28k miles, and that too was $15k and it had black and red interior as well, but it was auto, but fully loaded, with appearance package, so im like alright, I'll give it a shot.. they let me take it out myself, go on the road.. gear 1, 2...3 ....4....... nothing. crap. did not want another 4 speed.
that red 6 speed manual was amazing.

Thanks for showing the Pic's 
very cool. $15K is a bit much, I paid $14,500.00 for my 04 back in 07. If you want the VR then offer $12,000.00. He may say yes or no. Play hard ball. he will talk to his boss, then his boss and the mgr. Don't forget to ask for the car fax. they have to provide it for you 4 free.

I really really really like that one, but I need to be more realistic
Insurance is going to be higher, gas is going way up, and, yeah.. Right now I'm looking at a yellow 5 speed manual miata with black interior I believe.. much cheaper, and I can continue my yellow fever
and 90's cars are so much cheaper to insure!
