Default Could'nt resist such a good deal!

I may have to change my sig. My uncle calls me today and asks if I know anyone who wants to buy my cousins 88' 2.0si because she is getting a new car for graduation. So, I ask him how much and he says $1,000.00. I was like WHAT! I just put a rebuilt motor in this car a year ago for her. The motor alone was $1,500.00 with a three year warrantee. Needless to say I showed up with a check for $1,000.00 a couple hours later. My wife was pissed! Another Car! For what! She'll get over it (I hope). The car is in pretty good shape bodywise and everything works but the A/C which just needs to be charged I think. So, after a good reaming from my wife, I'm telling her I can have my buddy paint it for $500.00 and turn around and sell it for $2,500.00. But, then I took it for a spin and I'm not so sure I'm gonna sell it now. I use my GXE as my daily driver but I think I might keep the prelude for a while and see what happens. If I still like her maybe I'll sell the GXE and use the lude as my daily driver. She purrs like a kitten and is definately faster than My civic was stock with bolt-ons. What do you guys think. Fix her up a bit and keep her? Oh, and it has a windshield banner that says, "Princess". Kick Ass!

Too bad ther is not much aftermarket support for that gen prelude. You should have seen me today driving around to my friends houses with that banner on. I told them I traded my CRX for it and they shit. It was hilarious. Yeah, pics, I really need to break down and buy a digicam. It has been ages since I posted pics. My cars have changed so much. Where is a good place to put my pics?

Cool, that would be great. My cousin and I just finished the turbo kit on his RSX and I would love to post pics of that too if I could.

Do I need all that? Would it be easier for you to just slap the pics on one of your pages?

Yeah, more than likely I'll fix it upa bit and sell it for profit. i would rather drive my GXE daily and the prelude does not have much project potential so that will probably be the outcome. Great car for a beginner though woth little cash. Definately beats the shit out of a DX civic or something.
