just picked her up on wed.

in minnesota z's are kind of scarce due to the cold weather in the winter so most people would rather drive evo's, STI's, SRT-4's etc...dont be fooled though, minnesota does have a hell of a car scene even though most of our cars have to be put away for 5 months out of the year. anyway due to the scarcity, i planned to find one out of the state. after saving up for over a year and a half and selling my old 99' turbo'd civic i finnally had a decent amount of money for a good enouph down payment so i wouldnt be paying the car off till im 30, so i started looking around. after hours of looking around on the internet to find the one i wanted and the price range i wanted, i found one in florida and was just about to have them ship it to me when my dad called and said he found one ten miles away from my house!! the weird thing was, it was the exact one i wanted. 2004, black, 6 speed (we all know how many auto's there are out there), and only 13,000 miles on the VQ. so i went and test drove it on teusday, and picked it up on wed.

i dont know...crazy story for me anyway.
gimmie feedback if you think the same.

Welcome to the site... however

First rule of Z club... If this is your first post, you MUST post pics.

 

Sound like a good addition to the fam...welcome~! Now pics or die!

 

haha, ill post them tonight.

 

Hope you saved for some Mod's

 

wooooo. Are you sure your Dad wasn't foolin around with a prayer wheel. It's an omen that the car will stay in your own family for generations.

Just count your blessings and congratulations on your luck. Are you in rural Minnesota or the city?

 

thanks. suburb of the city. about 20 mins outside.

 

Welcome to the forum Jake, seems like your Z was kismet & serendipity. Enjoy, and don't forget to post those picys later. We hold you to that around here.

 

haha ive been trying to post them...its not working for some reason

 

Are you hosting your photos somewhere http://www.photobucket for instance?? Once you've done that you can cut n paste the URL of the photo and use your little yellow box with the mountains. Does that make sense?

 

haha yea it does, its all coming to me now. its been awhile since ive been on a forum. thanks!

Jake

 

No probs.

 

I don't know about it being a crazy story, but congrats on the purchase, and glad you saved.
