As some of you know, I recently bought a new car: zerothread?id=185597.

Well I didn't have much use for the Q because I needed soemthing a bit more practical. So I had a few people look at my Q, then I actually had somebody show up yesterday with $4500 in hand willing to buy it. But it was my brother's birthday yesterday and he needs a car badly. So I let it go to him for $2500. He'll be taking it away tonight.

I really wanted it to stay on Nico, but I guess with my brother owning it, it still can. I haven't driven it in a week, and no I really don't miss it either. I'm all Q'ed out. If I ever get another one, it'll be a brand new one when it's practical.

I had the opportunity to buy a Y34 (03-04 M45) or a 2003 F50, but the needed premium and the V8 made it impractical for right now. See, I'll be doing a lot of driving besides just my work commute. Lots of road trips. Plus, I really wanted my next car to be a manual, so that's what I got.

I'm very very happy with my Mazda 3. It's worth a lot more than I paid for it IMO. I'll still be around in the Q community here but I just had to announce that I got rid of it.

I also wanted it to be known that there IS indeed a demand for these cars, you just have to get the right person to look at it. It was tough to pass on $4500... Hell I passed on that amount on two seperate occasions - the first time I just wasn't ready to let it go. But I'm glad I was able to help my brother out.

So... do you mean brother in the way that white people use it, or the way black people use it? Just curious.

But seriously, glad it went to a good home. Not owning a Nissan/Infiniti is no reason not to stick around. Trust me, I would know.

It's my real brother. I'll still be around, don't worry.

See where the G (gniknave) states "my brother" instead of a brother.

Wait a minute, in conversations, my brother, oh nevermind.

Gniknave. Remember the Chappelle skit where he was the blind White Supremacist and the guy in the back of the room during the rally said "Brother Show us your face" That was hilarious!

The Mazda 3 is a nice car. You made a good choice. Good luck. If that new Mazdaspeed3 would've been AWD, that would be my next car. I don't know if I would like all the torque steer with 250 hp in the front wheels. That's going to be a bit ch. By the was, that car has a huge glove box. I think you can fit 2 six packs in there.

$4,500, twice?

Hmm....maybe I should start reselling Q's instead of 240's, lol.
