Lola, She is sold....

[heliochrome85]

She has been sold. The buyer came today, plunked down 26,500 for her, and on saturday, we will part ways with her. If its any consolation, they loved her name and have decided to keep it. She will be called Lola at her new home now. Its sad to see her go, but i already tricked out a mad Mini Cooper S. Don't worry, I will remain a hot blooded Petrosexual, even without Lola. And if it isn't too much bother, I would like to remain a member of the G forums, even if my G is no longer mine. Its been a great 18 months.

edit, i just noticed this is my 1111th post. how fitting.

Happy/Sad for you!! A quick sale!

You will have to turn in one of the twins, but that still leaves you a member.....

hey lola is gone to a new good home... don't worry about it.

You are a brother here! I will (not that I have the power to) but I will anyone that says different!

Good luck in your trips around the world... I will be firmly planted in Tampa Florida for Good!

it's a sad day at least she went to a good home.

[smockers83]

Good to know they'll keep the name--its like a dog, she wouldn't respond to anything else and give them the satisfaction she gave you. But 26,500, that seems like a really good price.

Bring up the Mini.

[heliochrome85]

its still aways away (2 years) but the one ive built, man. it would make you weak in the knees.

[Sentientbydesign]

Did I miss something? Why did you sell her?

[heliochrome85]

im leaving the country for med school. i wont be back til may 2010. as a result, there is no sense in keeping her parked in the garage, esp since my parents dont want to drive her. It just made more sense to sell her rather than let her devalue and go undriven. its tough, but whatever.

[AddictionG35]

I'm sorry that you had to get rid of her, when I lost my baby girl, it broke my heart, I still miss the way she held me tightly as I drove her hard (just the way she liked it.) Wait... uh... I'm sorry... we are talking about cars here, right?

Honestly, it's a sad thing to see her go, but at least she's found a good home that will not be changing her name. Good luck on you travels and school. And don't be like me when I didn't post for months after losing my car, as Tampa said, you are a brother here.

[TeflonG35]

I guess we should pour out some liquor for your lost hommie(lola).

[G_whizz]

Congrats on the quick sale! You did tell the new owners about NICO right?

You don't need a G to hang here with us..you better not be a stranger. Hell, when it comes to exam time.. I'm sure we can help!

[infinitgkid]

Hell, when it comes to exam time.. I'm sure we can help!

good... cuz i'm a college student and exams are a pain in the rear...

but, I am sorry to hear about you parting ways with you other half, and the way I see it you are still apart of this ballerhood we call the G-forums as much as the red ranger is to the power rangers...

I agree....On a side note...Where's BigWill? He's probably too engrossed in keeping track of his Lexi's fuel economy to come join us lol.

what kind of ****ing moron buys a used 2006 g35 for 26k private party??

[heliochrome85]

hey, lola is a clean car. she is worth more trust me. although an 06, original inservice date was march 1 2007, so it has an extra year of warranty. I also threw in the snow tires/rims, rubber mats, and touch up paint. I lost a couple hundred on the sale, but im happy because he seems to be as OCD about his cars as I am/was with Lola.

Looks like we have to make another poster!!

A lot of it depends on the local market and the condition of the vehicle.

[Tampa G35 Sedan 6MT]

I don't think that is that bad for a coupe?...

[Mark Linkous]

Hello,Sorry to see her go. Please stay around these parts. There are not too many car junkies/ indie music fans out there.Cheers,ML

[smockers83]

Did you get your new sig Tariq? My email has apparently been acting weird, just wanted to check.

[heliochrome85]

I did. I just havent had time to look at it. The guy is coming tomorrow to pick her up. Im stocking up on kleenex.

[Tampa G35 Sedan 6MT]

DOn't do IT

Take the G with you!

[heliochrome85]

eh, honestly, im over it. i am more going to miss it as a symbol of my youth. once its gone, im an adult and ready for that 2000 beige camry LE automatic.

[Tampa G35 Sedan 6MT]

Why don't you just jump off a cliff or something to kill yourself like tie a rope to a tree and make a nuse around your neck and pull the rope in your sun roof and drive really fast away from the tree!

Don't do it! Don't you dare buy a gold camry and change your lifestyle to be a grandpa!

[heliochrome85]

thats the current joke amongst my friends here. that once i get back to the US, its toyota time for me. in jewish racing gold. with the sporty wheel covers, and the F1-style toyota 4-speed automatic, for maximum fuel economy.

[smockers83]

Good gracious, no more going back to Syria for you. The effects of brainwashing are clearly showing. Someone save this man.

[heliochrome85]
