Cars X Girl

Step two of the Porsche plan? Sell the other car, whichever sold second. In this case, it was selling the Miata.

Parting wasn’t easy, to be honest. I did have a few tears over it… Leaving her in the parking lot and saying a brief goodbye were hard. It’s not easy to part ways, especially with something that was such a part of me for so long.

But it’s done, and now I’m sorta recovering and trying my best to focus on the new task at hand: Saving up the rest of the money I need to buy my Porsche 911.

It’s a step I had to take. And, by the time this is published, I hope that I’m feeling better about it.

I get to spoil the S2000 a bit with coilovers and brand new tires, and I’m looking forward to having some fun with her. It’s the step I was ready to take, it just sucks saying goodbye.

I hope she has the best life she can. She was special to me and my first Miata, and now she gets to be somebody else’s first Miata… I hope she’s as spoiled as she deserves.

But focus, right? Time to move forward…. The Porsche 911 is one step closer.

Meg

In 2007, Meg began learning about cars. She started racing autocross in 2009 and took the Rookie of the Year title with her '97 Miata. In 2012, she sold the Miata & a 240sx project car and began racing her S2000, while saving up for a Porsche 911. Life completely revolves around cars and she wouldn't have it any other way. CarsxGirl is her way to encourage others to get into racing (it's not horribly expensive!), to document & share her car builds, an outlet to share & improve her automotive photography skills and to show that real car girls do exist!
