Its a Sad Sad Day

[Skelhorn]

Hi everyone,

well there a positives and negatives.

negative is my car goes on Monday. My other child! My beautiful, high horse powered peice of japanese engineering!

The positive- I pay off my car loan, my credit cards and another loan with the money I get from her

So all in all there is a good to a bad I suppose!


It does suck however as I have done all the little features to make this particular WRX different to every other in Australia....Oh well Thats life I suppose

 

[Grogshla]

Don't sweat it dude. You will be far happier and better off!!

 

[Wild~Touch]

Sometimes it hurts to be brave

Another car will come along when you're ready for it

Good onya

Cheers
Sandee

Get an 8 bro

Get an 8 bro

haha na man I havn't met a street legal 8 that can keep up with me, they are only good for a straight line. Plus the point of selling this is to be debt free and smart with money for a while...V8's in QLD are double to register what a 4cyl is....plus they are slower so no point!

I am getting a little 50cc scooter so peeps watch out, I will be crusing the streets on that bad boy haha!

LOL Rego in QLD sucks big floppy donkey you know whats! I can't believe my 1275cc engine costs almost $700 a year to register cause it has 4 wheels and a little metal body and weighs almost 800KG!!! On the plus side She will be worth money in the end and not become obsolete. Good on ya for getting rid of the debt tho. Wish my old man would do that somehow, instead of being mini obsessed and spending it all on parts!

 

[slim6y]

It's a shame about the car mate...

I've saved so much money since moving to NZ, getting rid of my Aussie tank, living within walking distance of work, and buying a car with half the cc rating and much lighter weight!

Plus - Rego in NZ.... Just $400 per year!!!

Insurance (full cover including third party), just $400 per year!

Petrol... Well, I walk most places - but petrol is expensive here... Now... I need to stop spending money on silly things and start paying off all my loans and credit cards too (that's in my plan).

 

[Skelhorn]

yeah thats why I am going to buy a 50CC scooter. I will fuel it once a month---So probably a massive $8 there to fuel it and it will cheap as hell to register, can service it myself and its only $1700 brand spanking new! So can't complain hey.

Will be a nice feeling to be debt free....to be able to take the wife out for a special dinner once a month, so go places and do things without flintching and going oooo S(^&* thats going to blow the budget!

When I have my Midlife Crisis 20 years down the track I will buy the new model WRX and work it lol

Rego here is criminal hey. And did you see recently the oh so very kind labor government has decided to freeze the rego for 3 years so it doesn't increase. HOW VERY F'ING NICE OF YOU. QLD has the most expensive rego in Australia. Its wrong! But thats life!

 

[pseudechis4740]

Nice wheels! Sorry she has to go due to financial circumstances.
Big cars in QLD are just money pits with rego. CTP and running costs.

 

[Jande]

Well if you ever get another one you know where to get the best deals on parts lol! And just think... it's only a matter of time before an exciting new project comes along. Great that it's sorted you out financially at least. Just pass the time now until you have to scratch the itch again! :lol:
Was a pretty fancy car, too.

 

[Skelhorn]

Yeah it is a fancy car Quite flash for a young 20's year old boy to own! But also doesn't fit baby seats quite like the new car we have haha. Will bide my time with my stoked 70cc scooter until the right funds come along lol, the next project might actually be a rx-7 fd3s!

 

[Mo Deville]

Thats a meen rexy bro, i feel your pain!

 

[fourexes]

It looks like every other riced up rexy I've seen get your money back while you still can, they're heading the same way as skylines.... Thats the problem with cars, it's pretty hard to find someone that agrees with you on it's value. sounds like you've come to a deal that would be pretty hard to find later on. Financial security wins over cars, if only I had realised that 10 years ago lol.

Hahaha yeah I have sold it at its prime, because its a limited release and has luxury features most don't have I got that little bit more for it. Plus its perfect condition and it is one of a kind
The price in the next year on this model will drop by about 4 grand I reckon so perfect timing MONEY MONEY MONEY!

 

[Justdragons]

That almost makes me cry, i have a silver my00 gc8 but no where near as clean as that bad boy. And i agree stuff the v8s, 4wd turbos 4 the win.. :d

 

[Skelhorn]

cant go past that rexie rumble lol. This has the leather, carbon center gauge pods, sunroof, carbon roof spoiler...just to name the pretty visuals...then theres the 12g of performance mods (

 

[Fantazmic]

You will be so pleased not having debt....it is what hubby and I did years ago....apart from our mortgage we paid off all our debt nd then had to tighten our belts while we got money behind us....and now we only spend what we have....best thing we ever did !!

Yeah thats what I am looking forward to, being able to also take the family out for dinner or something fun occassionally. I did however give the sexy rexie a massive clean today. Outside Polish, rim polish, windows....leather treatment, floor mats...dashboard etc etc...OMG SOOO PRETTY haha but its time for it to go! Will shed a tear when she's leaving on the trailer on Monday But will smile at what I have in my hands

 

[CaptainRatbag]

Its sad for you now mate, I know what you are going thru. I have done all the dumb things too.... went thrunthe motorbike stage,,,, the fast 4's.... the rotary stage and V8's...... but sooner or later you grow out of it. Now I am just happy to get where I am going and just drive a cheap bomb :lol:

Everyone is going to suffer soon when petrol gets up to the $3-$4 a litre mark.... the people with hot cars and 4x4's will be trying to give them away to buy a scooter..... you feel bad now for losing your t-rex, but soon you will be glad you did. In order to stop humans wasting the earths limited supply of crude oil, petrol will be so expensive to buy, people wont be able to buy it and economy will be everything.

Great you are doing this now while the rex is still worth something but sad for you too

 

[Darlyn]

Pretty blue, but it's just a car. (I am obviously a connoisseur of fine vehicles ha ha)

Hate those bloody scooters tho, very annoying..............
