My insurance after that accident that destroyed the tC is WAY to high for a new car or any w/in the last 3 or 4 years.

The good news is there r a cpl of 83-85 corolllas on sale in the area, so... AE86, trueno, etc. here I come.

AE86?! are you serious? those things go for around 8K don't they?

that would be crazy, maybe you could get a 1J in that thing.


wow that was more intense than that one time I forgot how to sit down...

The rims look like cheese graters b4 the accident, even worse after, I was still kinda pissed at myself when I saw it at the salvage yard so I took nothin' but the ez stuff, sub, amp, etc. My friend gave me a ride in his Accord, so not much room anyways.

As far as the new car goes, the 2 or 3 I looked at were already somewhat modified, after purchasing, unless I can get more from the loan, not much will be done 'til I get over the hill that the accident created.

I also cant really say for sure if they r true AE86, but I'm not looking for a purebreed, just fun and reliable transportation.

Since I was makin' monthly payments, the value is gettin paid by the insurance and GAP is covering the rest.

I won't even tell u all what my new insurance was quoted at, so I'm buying used.

Nevermind that AE86.. The drifting frenzy made its price sky-rocket. Find yourself a 300zxTT or a Datsun 240z....mmmmmmmm....

240-260z has been the 1 I've wanted for awhile, but I don't want it for my main transportation. It would be nice to have 1 for a track car though.
