Might be parting ways with my baby...

Posted 03-10-2008 at 10:03 PM by booostedGSX
Well, it looks like its time for me to sell my Talon. As of late she's been giving me lots of problems, and I can't handle it anymore. I've got a weird charging system problem and someone hit it while it was parked in a parking spot. I'm kinda sad about it, but there just seems to be a black cloud following the car.

Oh well, I guess I'll play it by ear. I sure will miss it though.

I understand. Once I get it fixed, I'm sure I'll wanna keep it. It's just the down time that kills me because it's my daily driver/race car/show car.

I have thought about selling my talon a lot to but even with all the problems I have had and everything I have fixed i can't justify to sell it cause if your going to get another used car then you mite have the same problems so basiclly if unless you plan on buying new with worrianty then it is all the same difference to me.

Yeah, I really don't want to sell her, but I'm in a pinch for money and can't afford a DSM right now. College is sucking the life out of me as it is... If i had a beater ride like 4Motion4g63, then it would be a different story. My Talon is my daily which sucks, because 11s and daily driver don't mix too often.

DSMs require owners to have two cars.

something reliable - and your go-fast DSM.

Buy a beater if you don't have another car - a while back when I couldn't afford anything I bought a Toyota pickup for $500 and it was a tank. got me through all kinds of hard times. Do what you have to do - I just recently sold my other passion (entire drum kit/cases/hardware/cymbals ~ $3000 worth) to support my stupid habits with this car.

Make a decision and don't look back. either way You'll be ok.
