Skittles!
Skittles is a Purple (technically Amethyst) 2000 Dodge Neon, 5-spd … 61K miles … half the price of blue-book & a warrenty. :D
The purchase and delivery of this car was almost as much of a trial as getting my car to actually run a good quarter-mile.
Thanks goes to James (12secV6, duh) for test driving the white 1998 neon in NJ … which I didn’t get because this one has a Tach! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
To MisterJuice for a bunch of reasons relative to the car listed above. The weekend I was intending to take delivery of the vehicle, I couldn’t get anyone to drive me to NJ. Boon offered up the second half of his home garage to keep Path out of the weather until I would have been able to come back up to get him! … But on top of that, he also took off work that Friday so we could make sure my ‘bird was happily tucked in and the Neon was all the dealer said it was cracked up to be (for $1500.00). And then, I over slept and didn’t make it to NJ at all. – Boon, you own and I owe you! ... and Neon is good .... but [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img] SRT-4! (Thanks for letting me drive that thing!)
To my folks for giving me a loan to cover the price of the car … which absolutely blows my mind because they’ve never offered me money before … in my life!
And to Stefan – who was kind enough to drive me to PA not once, but twice for this car. The first time we didn’t get the car … because the banks were closed when we got there. The second time was last night … we arrived back in VA after Midnight. Good times Stefan – good times! … and I’ve got 0.2 liters on you. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
