I'll be damned, the forum at work.... The price just dropped to $2k with a $2900 'buy-it-now' take home. Y'all have her wondering if maybe it really IS a POS and everyone else knows it.

GU-RU! That's funny. Someone should send her a link to Manntis's site. That'd learn her!

Manntis,

I do believe the title of "Master of Space & Time" that you have earned from OVER 3000 POSTS in the rx7club.com forum.... hum... gu-ru? nah, I'd say more of a demi-god, but that's just me

Jon

if the front had to be replaced due to collission, they probably repainted the whole car. They would have removed the badges for painting, then put them back - only in the wrong spots.


...and think how high my post count would be if it included lounge posts!
