Talking Might be getting a riced out car

lol.. I guess I should be happy, since I've always wanted a rice rocket. As some of you may know, my car was a hand me down from my mom since she retired... Anyway, recently she's been complaining that she doesn't have her own vehicle to use when me and my sis are at school and when Dad is at work.. There happened to be someone selling his car for cheap because he has to leave the island asap and he's in the same car club as me.. Sooooo guess what car it is!

*drumroll plz*

lol... a 98 Honda Civic Hatchback.... DX! lol.. I really don't mind though. It's all "fixed up" aka riced out already fart can muffler and all! lololol.. Only 54,000 miles on it too... Feelz wide body kit, 17inch BBS rims, various bolt on engine parts, customized interior.. etc yall the know the deal... Best of all..... IT'S YELLOW!!!!!! that's the part I hate the most, but oh well, I ain't paying for it!

Hopefully the deal falls through, so that way I can say I have two cars.... haha yea right. I should know in the next two weeks. This pic is the actual car, sorry so crappy...

Hei juan!

that car is actually a very decent (not too ricey) car. jez change out the muffler. ya wanna be able to still hear into old age and the constant sound of bush-cutters will not help you that much. I've actually heard my uncle's 97 civic coupe with a really good muffler giving deep throaty sounds.... oops, did that come out correct? well.. ya kno wat i mean . c ya around mahn!

Hey Manny! I flashed my lights at you last week when you were driving around the parking lot near the tourism classroms at UOG, guess you didn't see me tho.. lol

Anyway,I hope I can get the car... It's over at Baby John's car lot next to Jack Peters in Dededo with a list price of $9,500. Daryl is trying to talk the price down for me, which I know might be easy considering the state of the economy plus it being a cash payment of around 7.5K.

heheh.. yea i did see you... but being an old fogie of 24 years of age, i have slow reflexes and was too late to respond.. hehehe...

Anyway, that car is pretty ok. it was in the car show a couple times if i am not mistaken. but wow.. the asking price is kinda high for a 98 even with all the mods. I'm trying to get myself a new car also. I really want a truck or SUV. We got too many cars over here at my house and once in a while my mom manages to get the cars stuck in the mud. So I need to get a huge truck to pull it out. hahahhaa... my mom thinks her Benz is invincible. I kinda lowered the car and that does not help the mud traction. She followed her comadre (the owner of Rambies) into a ditch and they both werent able to get out until i came with a rope and my car. imagine a Lexus pulling out a benz... that would have been a sight to see. I ended up using another guy's truck to pull it out cuz i couldnt find the hook place for my car. oh well... anyways, sorry for getting off topic.. but hope you get the car... at a good deal!

yea I know, he even put an ad in the paper for 10k.. good luck on selling it if its gonna cost that much. It was at Autojam and Import Night, maybe if I can get it repainted or something I could put it in next year's Import Night just for the hell of it... and for good parking! lol

that mud problem you have is easily fixable. just pave your road. We just repaved ours about 2 weeks ago... just in time for this new car! *crosses fingers*
