Can't say I'm 'sad' about it, It didn't go to a Mexican, or any shit like that, so I know it will be a fun car for the person who bought it, and they will appreciate all the work put into it.
I'm gonna miss it, but I think the MAIN thing I'm gonna miss is driving stick, I personally hated commuting in it with no AC, and with such a firm ride, so I'm not really crushed over that, and it wasn't exactly a looker, so its not like I will never be able to find another one.
But regardless, The time had come to move on, Between Credit Card Interest, Insurance, Gas, and Modifying it, I was spending WAAAAAAAAAY to much money on a 1992 honda, and I've accepted that, but since I was given the car for free, I luckily really haven't 'lost' very much money through this experiance when its all said and done. But I have learned how to do damn near ANYTHING to almost any honda civic ever made, I've done a motor swap on my OWN, and towed it to the track and back to see what it had, so I guess you could say "I've done everything I could have with the car, and experianced everything, and I have come to terms that its not worth investing any more money into it"
For the next month or two I'll be mixing it up and probably daily driving Kims half-ton just for a change of pace because driving the focus 100% of the time just isn't any fun. Its a great little car, but my biggest issues with it are coming to Fruition... It can barely pass cars when the A/C is on, It really is only getting 28-29mpg on the freeway, and its just kinda a 'basic' car, so it is time to move on.
I will not be able to BUY a car for another month or 2, apparently I had an account hit collections that I forgot about 6 months ago for my canceled old phone service (home phone that we had for a month when we first move in) that got kicked to "Deragetory" so my credit score dropped for July
, I paid that immediatly, and 100% of my credit debt will be gone by the end of the month making September/October Debt-Free, with all accounts paid 100% which should help knock my score up so I don't get raped on used car interested when I buy my next car...
Sorry for the rant, Just kinda needed to Vent.
Any other sub 18K cars I should be test driving guys?
