Re: The Journey Begins

That guy on the Suzuki side is the sales manager for both brands. He said the car came from Ottawa. His is very stock. He actually sort of offered it to me when I bought the Dark Teal. I think his plan was if I wanted his, he would take the Teal. They were all still seriously whining about how good a deal they gave me. During the negotiations, the owner got into a real shouting match with me, I thought it would come to blows, he actualy followed me out to my car as I was trying to walk away, screaming at me all the way. He still can't look at me.

Re: The Journey Begins
i would say the owner of scarboro subaru admitted to stereotyping/discrimination because of the way i looked during the negotiations. i had long hair back then
as for the jdm Alcyone emblem - i bought that from here on a group buy. i figured it would have really suited the black car - the idea was to try to buy the jdm rear centre light to make it completely unknown (as for company badging)

Yesterday was like a day like no other, as I was driving home from the office, I came upon two on the road. I thought "How strange is that" you might go a year without seeing one on the road I passed a liquid silver on Royal York going the other way. Then a guy in a red one pulled up along side me on the Lakeshore, He made a left onto Islington and I scooted around the block to try and catch him. He had parked so I parked across from him and got out and asked some questions, He was a little freaked at first. Really didn't know the significance of what he was driving. Said it had been in his family since new, I took down the details and have posted them in registrations He said they are probably going to sell it. I gave him my car and told him to call me. The car is excellent, only 118,000 KLM Now thats stalking!

I toyed with them for 3 weeks from mid January to early February. Each time I walked away from their best offer, I'd tell them that if they didn't sell it to me they would have to send it to auction and probably soon. I gave them all my card told them to call me when they did and I'd go to the auction and pick it up for $800. They'd reply that it will be "as is where is" not certified. I'd reply "You think I'm worried? I've driven the car twice, I know it doesn't need much" They'd all whince and then I'd remind them that my son-in-law was mechanic and it wouldn't cost me much to get whatever it needed done. The day I picked it up, the owner didn't come out of his office. They never had a chance
