She just doesn't see the potential.

no she doesnt. not at all.

i was like its the exact same as my old car. and the only response i can get is. not its not. its a piece of junk.

[XMDrifter]

she thinks its ugly cuz its crashed? he's not buying it to drive, hes buying it for parts to rebuild the one he just bought.

no, she hasnt even seen the crashed one. she is complaining about the Shell.

For most women, yes.

SPR, what you need to do is break it down, explain to her what you're going to do and what you are going to turn it into.

Maybe then she will see it.

[xmodzracer]

or tell her you will put a pink fluffy interior if she lets you get it... (then dont...)

[XMDrifter]

LOL that's a funny one xmodzracer.
but i think she'll be mad

their sales wont go plunk. they will keep pluggin along every bit as good as they were before. WRC had nothing to do with their sales. And subaru will still be running on the USA rally team.

Lol, girls don't understand cars... My GF just rolls her eyes and says "you dont need that" everytime I start talking about mine.

Anyway, road trips aren't all that bad. I've driven from Florida to Massachusetts which wasnt all that bad. I would have much rather prefered being in a truck though, Ill tell ya that.

Anyway, whatever you decide on doing, I hope you can pick this thing up. I wish I could embark on a project like this. I'd rather start with a fresh shell rather than tearing up and replacing everything from a whole car. But then again, I don't have a place to keep it, until I build my garage, which won't be till next year-ish.

So whats the plan man.... you gonna get this thing or not??

After patiently reading 5 pages of people talking a lot of crap I expected page 6 to offer me some photos of two busted up Impreza's sitting next to your Camaro but no it was just more crap.....

If it was me I would just dip into the Camaro fund so you can get this thing heading to you, you'll make money off of the spares you end up selling so you should be able to get it back pretty quickly....

well waiting untill the 31st to see if the wrecked one is going to climb out of my budget or not.

and ill know after the first of the year if im going to have the cash for shipping or not.

[xmodzracer]

Yeah!!!! Do It!!!!! It Will Be So Worth It In The Long Run!!!

well of course its worth it. the point is... im a grown up. i have bills and responsibilitys. not getting my electricity shut off at my house for 10 months seems more important to me than a STi shell....

money doesnt grow on trees.

[xmodzracer]

that is very true. sorry for the previous post...

OK I'll keep patiently waiting to see what happens, if you do go ahead with this its going to be very interesting to watch....

To true my friend! I'd love to throw more money into my Mustang but I just bought a house, have 2 cars to pay off, decided to get married and have my pending greencard application to deal the money for the car goes down overnight!!

Good news though I finally found a decent mechanic to help me with the more complex stuff and it turns out that he's part of my misses family, which means family discount on labor!! Now if only I could afford that S/C.....

im really trying! im really am! my buddy is letting me borrow his sti on the 31st so i can mob the closed iccey freeways for the 90 mile quest west to the auction so i can bid on the sti! if i get it... i will buy the shell 100% no matter what the shipping cost is.. and just tell the poor camaro its not going to get finished as fast as i want. if i dont get the sti.. well ill still work on the shell. but not promised. its only 4 days away i think you can make it!
