Tell me about it. Its a dream. Its really pretty too. But at 180k miles on the engine I just wanna have all the plans and everything ready for when or if the engine dies on me so i can get the puppy replaced. I plan on doing alot to the galant, but I wanna keep it california smog legal, so its limiting me on the performance end of things. But I will be doing breaks soon as I get the car. But if you have any ideas please share em :)

Dont count on things just yet bro. Remember, you still have to come up with the cash for it :-P After that, THAN you can say its yours... for now.

[MissMaverick]

Well, I guess the cat's out of the bag, huh? Yes, I am selling the G. As the miles on the engine pile up, so does the maintenance work I have to do just to keep it running smoothly (keep in mind I bought the car with 150k miles on it, so I have to make up for the lack of maintenance from the previous owner for all those miles). I am working full time and going to school full time, and I would rather see the G go to someone who I trust that will take care of it, rather than see it fall into disrepair under my ownership. Don't worry though, guys, I won't be going anywhere...you can't get rid of me that easy. Someday I will have enough money to import a Legnum, and then I will be the soccer mom that can smoke any ricer. :firedevil:

Oh, and if you're wondering what I've replaced the G with, it's a 2007 Mazda3 5-door. It's a great car, and it has so much potential performance-wise. Kwikfox got me a great deal on it too, since he works at the Mazda dealer where I bought it.

Take good care of the G, Andrew, and she'll take good care of you. :-D

[evil-G-nius]

Sell out! I can't believe you would do this to me & Matt! There are so few of us 7G out here! How do we know this person you are selling too will show up to meets and what not!

Just playin

Good luck with the new car...still think you should have gotten the Mazdaspeed version...but thats just me! :bigsmile:

And to the guy buying the car...congrats! looking forward to meeting you.

[Airi Sweetheart]

Hell yeah im gunna take care of this car. You should see the amount of s**t I have had to go through just to get money that is MINE. Dont EVER LEND MONEY TO FAMILY. Its like sticking your **** in a bear trap and punching the trip lever. Its not worth it.

And for you Kwikfox Im getting the money so dfwai!(dont f***ing worry about it :P) Lol jk

[jake26]

andrea who am i gonna call now with my bumper installs..btw thanx for the help, may be you will find another 7g with lower miles, i seen few out here a 97/98 models with between 60k-80k miles, thats low!!.. may be you consider byuing another 7g who knows.. ttyl

[bronxbombr]

nice going

I would have gotten the Mazdaspeed version, but Chris doesn't get a discount, and it was about $10,000 more, after all the extra stuff they put on it. But hey, I can always slap a turbo on the 3, upgrade the supsension and exhaust, and then it will be about the same thing...with lower insurance to boot.

And I know it's kind of a let down, but don't worry guys, I'm hanging around...you're like brothers to me. Besides, there's gotta be at least one chick around to keep every meet from being a complete sausage-fest. :laughing:

Hey, you can still call me. Just because I won't have the G, doesn't mean I don't have the knowlege anymore. :-D I was thinking about another 7g, but I realized that I just don't have time for working on cars right now, so I decided to get something new that won't need any work (hopefully) for a long time, unless I feel like modding it or something.

[peanotation]

what the fuck andrea.

[Bezzle]

damn.what a decision.lol

well at least its still in the TGC family.

yeah, that's a good point. this is so sad, to see it change owners at least. i guess if you came to a galant meet with the mazda we might let you in, and then probably hang you. i think the mazda3 is a tight car though, i would kill to have the 4door version as a daily driver. stick around, you traitor...

lol.haha so inviting, wish i were in the area. :laughing:

Wow, I'm really feeling the love now...and who says I would bring the mazda to the meet? I would probably just roll in with Andrew and the G. I would have kept the G as a project car if I could have, but there just isn't space in the driveway for an extra car, and we don't have a garage.

And I WILL stick around, traitor or not. So there. :twisted:

I've showed up to meets with out a car, and with a saturn... :cool:

[krazienluv10]

congrats its gonna feel weird when someone comes wit ur car ... hope all is well...

[bronxbombr]

as long as it stays in the family.

[MissMaverick]

congrats its gonna feel weird when someone comes wit ur car ... hope all is well...

I know what you mean...it feels weird selling it. All is well here, I've just been overwhelmed with work and school lately, and I would hate to see the G fall apart because I don't have time to take good care of it. Andrew will take good care of it, and don't worry, I will probably show up to meets with him anyway.

Shell come, Ill drag her along, or shell probly drag me there :P and you know when people actually come to look at it I have to give her full credit, the most I can say about the car is that I get to drive it, haha. If I get to say anything, the most I can say is that I did was the rear break conversion whenever I actually get around to doing it. :) So its still Andreas work :) I just show it off

bah you know i'm just pissed....

[Airi Sweetheart]

bah you know i'm just pissed....

Why are you pissed at least shes not selling to someone who would never take care of the car, let alone keep it in the family. :) Ill take good care of it I promise. Plus I got some plans for this car. Soon as I actually get my hands on the car and I have some money im gunna make sure this car get loved more then Rosie ODonald loves her ice cream.

[dudj]

Miss Mav.. wondering how much ur sold ur car? thinking of selling my G also and get another Acura RSX-S for my girl plus trading her car too.

sorry guys just need to get rid of the G

[MissMaverick]

Well, guys, for those of you that don't already know...looks like Mr. "FINALLY getting a galant" went and found himself another car without telling me while TGC was down. I was mostly selling it to him because he was desperate for a car and said he loved the G, but since the deal fell through...

...*drumroll*...

...I'm keeping the G.

Yeah, I know, I gave you all a good scare. But hey, almost letting it go made me want to hold on to it even more. Feels good to be home, now that I have both the G and TGC back. :D

[DOHCstunr]

BOOST IT

[seth98esT]

BOOST IT

........ :biggrin:

Headswap first, I have the ECU for you :P

[rez887]

BOOST IT

X3!haha

[MissMaverick]

I will probably start with the head swap if anything, but first I'd like to make a dent in my car loan. It will probably be a few months before I do any major work on the G. We'll see what happens though, since I thought I was going to be waiting to do the JDM front-end, but you guys just kept giving me offers I couldn't refuse, and here I am with the JDM stuff now.

[evil-G-nius]

Damn it! Just when I thought I was getting rid of Chris! LOL

Nah I am just playin. I am glad you guys are sticking around. Welcome back kiddo

Hahaha...thanks. Just don't call me kiddo...it makes me feel like I'm 10 years old or something. :roll: :lol:

ok sparky! :lol:

I am just playing...I really am happy that you guys are sticking around.

[MissMaverick]

So I'm a dog now...sheesh. What an improvement. :P :wink:

We're happy that we are sticking around too...things just wouldn't be the same without the G or TGC. It's like family here, and there just isn't that kind of closeness among either Mazda3 or MR2 owners.

Hey, cool. I didn't really care about an upgraded sound system or navigation, so I just stuck with the 2007 5-door S Sport. Nothing fancy, but it is still a nice car (and it's stick, yay!).

Hey, if you want a nickname for me, I already have one. My last name is Lechuga, which means "lettuce" in Spanish (yes, really), so pretty much throughout my whole life people have called me Lettuce.
