When Buying Used, Learn All You Can

April 12th, 2012 · No Comments · Guest Post

TweetWhile I’m still a ways off from buying my own Porsche 911, it’s a topic that I think about on a daily basis. The thought of getting my own 911 consumes my thoughts almost all day — everything that I do I do in the hopes of buying her sooner rather than later. In the [...]

Step Two, Complete

February 23rd, 2012 · 1 Comment · About Me, Cars I want..., My Cars, Porsche

TweetStep 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 [...]

TweetWell, I meant to have the Auto Show photos posted today. Ooops. Obviously didn’t work out for me this time…… Heh. Instead of putting together my post, I was running around procuring a new battery for the Miata and installing a new battery in the 240sx and otherwise prepping both cars for sale. Still need [...]

The Idea of Project Cars…

February 2nd, 2012 · No Comments · Musings, Random

TweetWhat is it that makes the idea of having a new project car so appealing? Am I the only one who’s always thinking about the next project instead of focusing on what I’ve got in front of me? ^Current Project: New suspension and tires for the S2000…. Need $$$ :/ I’m probably having way too [...]

TweetThere are plenty of times that I wonder if my life will ever get easier…. Mostly because it seems to always be up in the air. This time, it’s kind of my fault. Because I quit my job. I turned in a one week resignation notice on Sunday. By the end of the week I’ll [...]

December 15th, 2011 · No Comments · Guest Post

TweetNote: The following is a Guest Post. I found the theme went pretty well since, well, I’m selling two of my cars. And since it’s depressing, I’d rather not write on it myself. Enjoy! Selling your own car can often result in more money coming back to you than a trade with a dealer would [...]
