Well, I made it just about a year. Bought a 98 Dodge Neon sport sedan with a 5 speed on Monday from the original owners. It'll be my next rallycross toy, after I give it a going over to make sure its safe.
For 150 HP, it sure seems weak in the lower RPMs. It'll need a 2.4 swap at some point.

7ish months I think. It was to clean and to good of a deal to pass up. Needed tire pressure sensor fix and speakers and a really good clean. But I will make some money on it.

But for the next 6 months or so its the daily driver.

..almost made it a year.

Just struck a deal on a parts car mk4 GTI with a blown VR6 and minor fender bender damage, but has heated leather interior. Going to be a donor for my TDI Golf for the interior. Will part out / scrap the rest.

Dragging her home tomorrow. I feel like a school kid. giggidy :)

Nice! My Grandpa had a Black one when they were new with both sets of bumpers removed, it looked badass! They can sound really mean, too. I've never seen the Gold before, looks good!

We haven't done too well... two cars bought (my GT6 and her 850 wagon) and one car sold ('07 MINI) within the last year. Hopefully my BMW will be gone within a month or two and we'll be even.

I did buy some Volvo doors this past w/e...

If I buy a F125 kart, would that count?
