Definitely
Sorry, but spork is right. the accident is going to be a decent hit in resale value. Now, factor in the pricing of new 370Z's that are a much better car, and you might be looking at mid 20's for a price... and that might even be a bit much. You could get lucky and find that one in a million buyer that 'wants' your specific car but at 30+ grand, he will easily find one accident free. You kind of seem like you are the same type of person as my brother... because you owned it, it magically makes it worth 25-30% more than a comparable car

What seems odd is if you aren't planning on selling for a year, why list it now?

^Like I said before, I'm just putting it out there so people know that it's for sale.

Yes, you know me so well lets go back to what I previously said:
I'm not planning on selling it for that price

didn't say I knew you.... but it makes no sense to throw up forsale without a true intention to sell. Regardless, you think you would put it up within the ballpark price you are willing to sell for

wtf... everytime I quote someone, it doesn't work. I guess the site has some bugs to fix.

Thanks again for the help, Greg. I got to use it last night and enjoy a movie. The room is too small for a projection system. But thanks for the suggestion! lol

Yes, I slept well at 0245. You need to stop drinking so much caffeine like those energy drinks.

Nothing wrong with them when taken in moderation. I think Greg has an IV for the stuff, and the bottle is in his pants. LOL

I don't drink caffeine after lunch. I usually have a cup or 2 of java in the morning, and that's it. I might take an energy drink before working out, but it has to be taken early afternoon.

I like Red Bull and Rockstar. Haven't had either in a long time, though. They're addictive, I know. On those long days, I just snack to keep the energy levels up. That's probably why you're tired. Gotta space out the food and fuel the body.

I swear to god that I'm getting sick and tired of this drive up to Sartell and STC. I kinda want to stop at Sugar Daddy's....

Found a cool, little coffee and dessert shop up there in Little Falls, and it's becoming my favorite place to stop when I'm in that area.

So how's everyone today?

Took my hatch to a body shop for some scratch and dent fix and repaint. Did not want to take the whole car in there and besides, it gives me something to do. Ordered a new "Nissan" emblem to go with the fresh paint. Got rid of the "350Z" emblem and leaving the spot blank (Not that I have anything against having it on). Gave the guy a drain plug to paint as well in case I decide to lose the rear wiper. I am expecting my "Heavy Duty" hatch struts from Z1 to help support my Nismo wing (Almost busted my skull one time).
