the death of my cel collection resulted in.....

Post by Carol »

.....

well, i remember some people were wondering why I was tearing apart my collection for money in a hurry, and well... I needed a second car because I didn't want to daily drive the prelude everyday. its a gas burner...and I didn't like subjecting it to all my driven mileages.

but i threw practical sense out the window when i came across a great deal on a car that ive wanted for years. great GREAT deal :D
And so...now I have a new addition to the garage again. And I'll be burning gas EVEN MORE than before...but, at least I'll be driving with a big smile on my face ^_^

8) hopefully i'll be back to cel collecting again in another year or so, but for now, I suppose I've re-resigned back to my automotive passion for another go.

thanks to everyone who've assimilated parts of my collections into theirs - I was supremely attached to some of them, but when I thought about it - I didn't spend as much time admiring them as I could unless they were threatening to leave my ownership...and I figured someone else would do better to appreciate them more frequently than I did. I hope you guys all keep your galleries up online, so that I can browse, gawk, stare, and reminisce whenever I surf online.

You've all helped me and came through quite quickly so that I was able to snatch this car before any other buyer came along :D

I'll still poke in here from time to time, check out what everyone's new treasures and galleries, and see what you're all up to!

Wooo Hooo! Fabulous new ride! I know it must have been hard parting with so many of your beloved cels ... but at least it was for a wonderful cause. Plus, you got a great deal and managed to make a dream come true for yourself ... so that's pretty darn cool, in my book.

Congrats, and I hope you can get back into collecting really soon!

wow nice rides!


is that an RX-7?! what year is it? if you don't mind me being nosey. It just looks so new! My dad drove around a -really- nice 86-88 RX7, like 10years old, but only had 36K miles on it... *Drools* when i was 15ish (I begged him to let me keep it, but he said no... bro's college was more important).

Oh well enough about my ancient history! Congrats on the new car!!!! and I totally underst and about driving with a smile. I just got a car/vehicle i've always wanted about 1,5 monts ago. ^_^ wooohooo!!! drive and enjoy it, it looks like an absolute blast to drive around! :D
