I collected the cash and signed the title. Man this feels weird. I had it for 34 months and 27,500 miles. I'm actually going to miss this one.

The only car that is 100% mine right now is a non-running Javelin. How the heck did that happen?!?!???!

Ive had my grand marquis 22 months. I would feel the same way if i sold it. Awesome cars, the panthers.

It was time to move on. This is the longest I've owned a daily driver and it just worked out. John needed a DD, my dad needed an AMC motor delivered to Florida, and I need a hatchback.

I did secure right of first refusal though

My last name is Pinto. It is against Federal Law for me to own one.

Next is probably a WRX wagon if I can find one that's both:

A. Not Red

and

  1. Not riced/wrecked/"rebuilt"

I hear the Saabs are less likely to be those things.

Also, i like the front end better.

I have, of course, been including the great Saabaru 9-2X in my search.

There are currently 2 around me. One is gloss primer, the other is RED. Oy!

I've never seen a red one of either down here. Fly in, drive out.

^This.

I too am not a fan of the red.

I have only seen a few WRX wagons in red. When I was looking 90% of them were silver, which I wanted no part of.

Man, that is so right. I really love a nicely done small bumper Pinto.

I'm a GM guy, but a Pinto with a V8 my foot would be glued to the floor and a smile on my face

In reply to Javelin:

If I had my druthers (and I did) I'd buy a Subie from a state that has mild winters. I think there is a bug-eye yellow hatch WRX for sale in NC. The bits from the 2006 will bolt right in.
