Road Trip! (The time has come...)

Well... Tomorrow, sometime after noon, Phast SVX is going to jump into his SVX, Cory's (Phast's mechanic and Certed Soobie Master Mech) going to pick me up, and we're all going to go down to look at the '95 Laguna Blue in Rockford.

If all checks out, I have five $1,000, credit union-issued money orders in hand and will be bringing her home.

Wish me luck and solid mechanics!

That's awesome Knightwulf! I hope it all works out for you.

I know the first snow will be coming soon to the mid-west, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that this is the ONE!!!!

Thanks Chike.. If it doesn't work out.. It's going to be awhile before I get an SVX as I'm going to have to settle for the '96 Camry I found...

Ugh. So common and so classless..

I hope it works out for you. At least you get to se the car you're buying - I just bought an MR2 sight unseen.

Actually, I still haven't seen it.

Good luck, man - I hope it's the one. But if it's not, don't be afraid to say so and wait for the right one.

Still waiting to hear back from Cory.. Left a message on his voicemail. You know his schedule better than I.. Want to see if you can't get ahold of him and work it out? Any time's good for me tomorrow.. I need to get a bit of sleep before work tonight.

I would suggest brining FOUR 1000 dollar cashiers checks, one 500 dollar one, and 500 in cash. That way you can negotiate if it needs rotors, paint, tires, etc.

That was actually the plan. They're money orders, so I planned to cash one of them beforehand.

Thanks for the tip, though.

Thumbs up

Best of luck with the purchase. It looks a nice car in the picture, and they are not as bad as they are painted on here at times.
