Hey yall.... I'm at worky right now... I'm gonna see if I can take some pictures when I get home. I bought a red 98 GLX yesterday... We will have a sad decommitioning of the diesel in a few days. :( Oh well.... I've already owned:

1: Ford Taurus
2: Old Toyota Celica
3: Subaru outback wagon
4: V8 Ford Bronco

I love it when I raced the Toyota... He got owned so bad, and the next light turned red, he turned off the road so he wouldnt have to race me again... It was awesome.... LOL, anyway... I'll get pictures for you peeps later today mabey. I've already burned 1/4 tank of gas in like a day... DAMN, VR6 is the gas guzzler... I'm only getting like 20mpg!!!! AHHHHHHH.... oh well.... I'll live I suppose.

don't even mention insurance.... damn dude... I hope I can afford this too... I just might have to park the thing in the winter to be able to pay for insurance... HA HA HA..... Anyway, as soon as I pay off the loan in 24 months, there will be a supercharger waiting for it.... I was going to twin turbo the diesel but there was a lot of room problems.... I sold the diesel to my friend who'm I'm going to help him make it really fast.... So I'll still have physically access to "Beverly"... But to tell you the truth, i'm not too sad to see it go... It had a bunch of rattles inside, and wasnt as fast as this VR6... Not even close... Only thing good about it was fuel economy.... That car had character tho... That's why I liked it so much.

sometimes it's the character that makes a car last for years even when it should theoretically be dead

Well, this is my 5 year "for fun" car... As soon as this is paid off, I'm probably going to let my future wife drive it, and then get us a 2004 TDI-PD (in 5 years)
