Quitters- soon ghosts to us (selling/sold my DSM)

[GofaST4life]

a Viper with a truck bed...nice!

good price, have some fun with that...i know i would...

 

[Ill-EagleTSi]

You just admitted you lied (ill informed)... You even proved it by showing me a site with twice the mileage you said in your first post...

PLUS, you cant say that you can get a vehicle to get 5 mpg because of the way you drive? Why would any dealership put those type ratings on a car?

And to just top off my point about being able to just say you were wrong in the first place, here ya go.

Gas Mileage of 2005 Lamborghini L-147/148 Murcielago

AND, those arent "beating it" ratings... I bet I could get a Lambo's mpg's down to 1 mpg if I tried too, then when I go to sell it Im going to post the 1 mpg rating... Small print will say at "220 mph".

Bro you need to go back to school...a LIE is something you said KNOWING its NOT truthfull. All I said was "I coulda swore it said 5 and 9"....I didnt say 100% sure that it was 5 and 9...But come on lil man ...like 9 and 12 are much better hahahaha you're kidding yourself.

And Are you serious?? you dont think driving styles affect fuel consumption?? is that what you're trying to say??

And the Manufacturers DO lie about fuel use. It has been a HUGE topic in the NEWS. The EPA only Estimates the Fuel use. Its NOT a REAL world estimate. I'm heavy on the pedal...AKA MORE gas.

I'm not trying to say you're wrong and Im right, but to come out and call me a liar is a violation of the website rules. You need to look up the definition of a LIE.
Not to mention 5 and 9 is probably MORE realistic than you think..... In the REAL world

Anyhow, Matt please just stop...i dont want to argue with you about a lambo?!?!? or whatever you're talking about...did you add any info to this thread or are you just here to start E-fights? Just drop it....## right it get 3 more miles to the gallon than I had estimated hahah You're right bro, you're right. The dealer just made that 9 and 12 up...it really gets 100000 miles to the gallon

Getting out of the game for a little bit as I have more important things to attend to. I gotta admit that I damn near cried last night when I saw my car being driven by someone else and the BOV whistled so nice as he left. I walked to my apt feeling like shit. So much MONEY, hard work, blood, sweat and tears. I took this car from nothing to something. Everybody that came to see the car loved it, some didn't have the cash but wished they did. I proved to myself that I could bring a vision to reality. *sigh* I'll get another one, trust me.

 

[housegsx]

What in the....WTF

I hope you made money on it because it doesn't seem like you got to enjoy it for long.

 

[slipstream808]

Damn. Hope the other reasons are good ones!!

 

[LandoAWD]

You'll be back...we all come back...

:creepy music:

 

[snowborder714]

The next car will probably be AWD too!

Hopefully the person that bought it from you doesn't beat the heck out of it.

 

[mitsu93gsx]

In about 3 weeks. We are going to see a post In the newbie section and it will read..

Hi Im new to the dsm scene i just bought a red dsm and now its knocking...... jk man

I know how you feel seeing your car driving off, when I sold mine I was like wait what Im i doing.. well im back now.....

 

[shredwin]

The GST might be gone but im sure you can find another DSM in the future, maybe this time you will get an AWD one who knows.

 

[zaksgsx]

Im sure there is a plan for something. And im sure it is awd. Like everybody else is saying, you will be back sooner than later. We all do.

 

[blcknspo0ln]

I'm sad

 

[EventsCo21XL]

When you come back, get an AWD hehe. Yeah it's pretty depressing when you see a car with your time and labor drive away after a sale. Good luck and hope to see ya around man.

 

[PIMking]

you suck. Traitor.

better not buy a honda.

 

[BoostedinSoFla]

Ahh... Feeling a lot better now. I wouldn't be caught dead in a Honda. Lol I'll get another one though. I'll be here everyday so that should be some motivation for me.

Hello Socal Tuners,

This year is almost over and normally each year I would buy a few mods for my special dsm.

However, this year will be different. No new mods for my ride or out of the country trips. This time I've decided to do something different and big. I've decided to take that next step in a dsm'ers life. Below is an example of what my new ride looks like (picture borrowed from other forum).

I have yet to take pictures of her because my cameras down and the car needs to be waxed. It's a 2006 Graphite Grey Evo IX MR/SE with about 13k miles to the odometer. Currently bone stock with no future mods in mind (i now have to watch what i spend).

I will still be hanging around here from time to time when time permits (especially when it comes to classified section...). Anyhow, I just want to shout out to all dsm'ers that I've meet and befriended and say thank you for all your help and support. It was a blast doing canyon runs, simple in-house meets (at Andy's), and dyno runs .

If you see a Grey Evo IX MR/SE with a bald headed driver, honk! I will surely wave and honk back.

 

[93_tsi_fwd]

Nice. You sold a whole bunch of parts to buy that evo? J/P

Youll have a blast with that thing. Congrats man.

93. Yes, it was well worth the wait (must of sold a gazillion stuff).

I still have my Eclipse and have no plans of letting her go. Still love my dsm. Even after all the love and hate relationship we shared.

 

[ilikespeeding]

Ok, this isn't your typical I'm done with DSMs thread. I'm not frustrated, nothing is broken, nor am I bleeding or stranded in an unknown location by my DSM.

I happly part with my 2G marking an end to my three year endevour (see what I did there?) with Mitsubishi. I've learned tons. It's time to let this one go. I don't have the resources for her anymore. In all honesty, she's been the most horrific, expensive car that I've ever owned. Noises that I heard while driving her shall plague my dreams for years to come. This is my third and final Mitsubishi for the foreseeable future. I know leave you with an anthology of my work as well as many pictures.

After reading some of the wording, I'm hoping you aren't selling it to someone as issue free on our local hangout.

 

[ilikespeeding]

This would be before I replaced the turbo, fixed tons of leaks, and discontinued running the turbo on 25 psi on the stock sidemount. Starts right up now.

 

[LandoAWD]

. Just giving you a hard time.

 

[ilikespeeding]

Haha glad to hear it. I hate for anyone to think of me as anything less the completely honest.

 

[GofaST4life]

[xioca]

Aren't gsx's supposed to be turbo... WTF
