Well, tommorow a kid is going to test drive the Summit. I have my eyes on a pristine 1992 Eagle Talon TSi for $3,600 in immaculate condition. I'll keep my fingers crossed. I'll be getting around $3,500 for my car. |

Much like the mark-up on cheeseburgers bound for the North, you seem to be getting the better end of the deal on that one! |

I'm sure somebody has said this before, but the only thing "sleeper" about my car is when I step on the gas pedal...edit- oh yeah, Jeff told me I'd be his hero if I got near that much for the summit. Test drive tommorow at noon, I'm offering them $3,200. |

You have a very clean car but if it was mine and I could get $3500 it would be gone in a heartbeat. You'll love the TSi if you get it. Plus you can always pick up a cheap CSM shell later for the swap. Good Luck! |

NOOOOOOOO!!!!! CSM's as clean as yours are too hard to find. Youre already so far along with your car, a motor swap is no big deal! For all the right reasons, keep your summit!!!! |

Well guys, today sucked the big one. I wake up, give this guy "Dennis" a call to make sure the Talon was still for sale and tell him I'll probably be buying it in a few hours (I got rid of my car @ around 1pm.) I bring my car to my buddy Jesse's house who was going to buy it, we drive all around town, I show them my folder 2" thick with receipts, explain that the car is rock solid, new suspension, new brakes, it comes with 3 sets of tires on rims, a ton of old parts to mess around with, and basically whore my car. At about 2:30, we settle for $3,100. She writes me the first check for $1000, and I get into my car, and at about 3pm, I call up "Dennis" to say, hey buddy, I sold my car, I'm ready to take that TSi off your hands. What does "dennis" say? "Uhhh...sorry kid, I just sold it to some kid, better luck next time." Click. So, here I am, car-less, and f-ing pissed. But I was EXTREMELY lucky, I called up Jesse and said..."Uhhh...can we chat for a second?" I stop by his house, his mother immediately says, "Of course you can have your car back, you're such a nice young man, blah blah blah," and I return the check, and nothing has changed. Hillary is parked outside where she belongs. I think this is the last time I do something like this for a while. BTW, did I mention I hate Juneau? meh. -James |

She would have been sold for $3100 if i were you. Then pick up a beater for a couple hundred dollars while i save up some money to really buy the car i want. There's gotta be another dsm turbo around even if its freakin Alaska. Damn, move to Colorado already! |

Sounds like the Talon guy was a prick anyway. I wouldn't even want his car if he acted like that. I guess you could say that it was just meant for you to keep the Summit! |

Sorry to hear about that James. Well I had my Lincoln sale fall through just short of the first downpayment cheque. I had worked so hard and was going to even help to safety the car on the other side of the provinvcial border (because I hadn't moved on my $2000 asking price), but to no avail. The kid got a job in Ontario, and now had a three point distance to worry about that would have put the gas bill above his head. Bah, I hate English people from Quebec. lol .... nah just those that can't make up their minds in a timely fashion; sad part is that they would have been the perfect candidates - he had 3 other 1970's boats parked in his barn, some good (race ready) and some bad - can't put a magnet to them! Such is life in the car businass. |
