Good deals on both.
the rx8. My mom cosigned with me on the car before but for whatever reason had to have it off her credit within a 2 weeks of letting me know. I shopped and shopped with no luck at all, found this car. It looked pretty good, handled really fucking good, and i could afford it so here we are. So far im glad I got it.

The integra- I traded a few cars and ended up here. I did this final trade because a freind had wanted a truck that i recently traded for and this teg grew on me, really fast . not to mention he hadnt had any issues with it and it seems to be a nice looking and reliable car, just slow. So here I am, 1.5 years later with no problems and still looking good.

Lets see............

The cougar i bought for the X-wife.. Im stuck with it after the divorce... Then in 07 the tranny blew and i needed a car to drive to FT lauderdale to do Port security detail for the navy. So I bought a civic off of here from a user. SOLD IT to me with a bad title and I couldn't register the car in my name or put the title in my name. Asked for help from him and he never returned my calls, pms, or e-mail. So I went shopping around TR for a shell. Found a clean title shell and did the swap. 2008 my son was born and needed a SUV... So Once again went looking for a suv... Found one on TR and bought it... Thats how I have my rides..

Always liked the 99-00 Civic coupe for a daily driver and decent looks so i got one when i couldnt turn down the deal at my job.Going on 2 years i dont regret it.

My Laser i got from you(edmel) for a decent deal(tranny computer was a pain in the ass to find) and now compared to 5 years ago have more expendable income to put into a second car.I think its "quick" for money invested and very reliable for a dsm.

lol I have no clue my buddy was selling his account on what he called the "blackmarket of WoW" lol It was a maxed char with everything needed, now that they are raising everything I bet in another 8 months when the new pack comes out you should be able to get around 4-5k for a maxed account with all the goodies.

Coming from my 500whp 2003 Cobra and my 400whp show/race ready S14, I wanted something that was quick, fun to drive, turbocharged, decent mileage, and great handling that I could live with and drive every day. Something that could pretty much satisfy every want and need in a car. With a budget of 50k, I "settled" for a low mileage 2003 Lancer Evolution and put the rest in the stock market.

In May I will have owned this car 3 years, which is longer than I've owned any daily driver. Its been a completely satisfying ownership experience
