I got my rx-7

hello again sorry for the first intro but i need help. I am andres Garcia i live in northern Califonia. the way i got my rx-7 was pure luck. i liked rx-7 since ive first seen them in those need for speed games and i always told everyone that my first car would be a rx-7 (a FD) diffrent generation but its still a rx-7 ( i was about 10 to 13 at the time im now 17). i had finally got a job and was xaving money to buy my first car. fast forward a 6-12months cant recall and i had about $3,200 saved. at the time i just wanted something to drive a buckect would ahve been fine. my brother calls me and tells me there a white rx-7 for sale down the street from my house ( it got put there while i was at work didnt see when i went to work) my brother knows about my obsession about rx-7s. the next day i look at the at the car its 1991 FC 3S. i fell in love with it right away. the asking price was $4,250. the day affter so two days after they offiacly "advertise" the car for sale i have a talk with my mom we check car out we like or should i say me and my brother convince her. we then call the owners they come we chat my brother test drives it (its stick and didnt know how to drive stick i do now =) and i dont have a lisecnece still working on that) we manage th talk the owner down to 3,800. mom writes the check we get the paper work done, after all said and done the previos owner asks us if we checked online for the price of the car we say no but we did (kelly blue book price was qround $7,000 dollars

the best thing about the car is it was in mint condition and when i say that i mean it. it looked like it just came out the dealership as a new car.the guy was a nut freak whenit came to the car (he was retired and spent alot of time keepin the car in the best conditon possible). we later found out that they wanted to sell the car for two reason
check this out
reason 1) didnt have room for the car in the 1car garrage why you ask they just finnished buying a new corvette
reason 2 relates to reason 1) they wanted the money from the car to buy a brand new exaust sytem for the vette



TRU STORY GUYS HOPE YOU LIKE IT
