[V8] Interesting V8 in Washington

Tue Apr 3 23:30:10 EDT 2007

Talk them down I did. Just that I didn't feel
that..you know..that feeling! Talking to the sales guy
as I did..I'm no Spring chicken ;->,
& I hear from some people that I'm a bit HARD to
handle..or am a bit GRUFF..I don't know I just don't
see it :-)
 But Allen are YOU seriouse? After the Black/Black
deal in Seattle wouldn't work for me I was lucky
enough to find the Cyclamen/Grey in Pitt, & I seen the
Pearl in Seattle, along with the other Cyclamen/Grey
in Jersey. But the jersey car was more than I wanted
to spend. For that $$ I could have just gotten a
Urs4/6..which I all most ended up doing.
Then the debocle with the Pitt car, I was frantic..you
told me bout the Pearl in Seattle...but the car was
just listed as that was all going down. But
 I did talk to the guy extensivley & just didn't go by
what Carfax said! I talked to the sales guy..asked him
all the questions,
ended up talking to a guy who seen that exact car FS 3
years ago. I ended up getting the guys e-mail addy &
e-mailed back & forth about the car. I deleted his
e-mails..but I remember him saying that the car was in
an accident..he tried to sell it for a while till he
traded it in..were it sits now.
Now JUNK may be harsh..how's $$ pit!
I went through it with my ol now destroyed Pearl 90
V8. Low K's..great car..but everything was sitting..I
replaced alot of parts. I would a rather gotten a car
with 150k..DD, than the 83k low K garage queen that I
got!

 Did I end up with a good car...YES! Did I go crazy
finding it...YES....am I glade that the events
unfolded the way they did...YES!
 So I guess it all came down to a "feeling"...

 But if the car can be had for $2,000...I say go for
it.
