Nice GPW '04 for sale at New City.

You know, I think it was on these boards earlier, but wasn't too sure. Seems to be in decent shape. 12k miles on it. I think this is the same one I was asking about before.

They said it was an older military guy who traded for a bigger car.

There was a small dent on the back between the roof and the trunk. Anyone know who's car this was and what they did with it?

I work w/the previous owner of this vehicle. It wasn't owned by an older military guy, he's a comeback king in the automotive industry. And he wasn't looking for a bigger car. Reason how I know this, is because prior to owning that car, he owned an IS300, and prior to that, a Prelude. When he got the Prelude, fvcked the cylinder head, and his extended warranty wouldn't cover it, and be so, he couldn't pay for it to be repaired. Questionable, an automotive technician can't fix his own vehicle? LOL. Anywho, he traded it in for an IS300, because he said that he needed a bigger car. So, he holds onto that for a while, and then when I buy my S2000, he copies me and buys one because he says that his g/f already has a 4DR vehicle, and he wants a play car, and supposedly, even though he never talked about it, said "I always wanted one". So, he goes to Hawaii Mitsubishi, and trades in the IS300 for the S. Takes it home, and throws on some SOMBRERO ass rims, drives it from 7K miles, to 12 or 13K miles in a matter of months, being that he lives in Hawaii Kai, and works in Waipahu and used the car as a daily commuter. In my personal opinion, I think that he traded it in because he found out how expensive it is to modify the S, and can't afford to get anything for it. So, all in all, the guy that owned the car is a FLAKE. But I must say, that I'm glad that he doesn't own it anymore, now everyone @ work doesn't bash me about having a little copycat running around. LOL. The funny thing is, that he took that same exact wheels, which he had on the S, and also had on the Prelude, and the IS300, and put it on the car that he traded in w/the S. Which would be a Protege 5 wagon. If it sounds like I'm hating here, I guess I'm doing so in a sense. But hey, anyone else would feel the same way if you were in my shoes. And to conclude this quick reply, I hope that the S finds a new owner, w/ a sense of originality, and doesn't try whoring up wheels from previous vehicles that he/she owned.

But they told me it was a 80 year old woman who just drove it to church on Sundays.

New City needs a Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to the face.

Haha just kidding.

The engine sounded funny, the shifter was stiff, and the check engine light blinked for a long time...

Maybe my S is too new to experience those things?
