the blazers and nets are having discussions...oops, i mean last night, i was driving down a busy street and a black '93 se zooms by going the opposite direction. 3rd gen SEs are extremely rare around here. especially black VEs. so after a little hesitation, i flip a biatch and chase after him, stop at a light and ask if he wants to sell, he says yeah, i ask how much. ""$4,500" i think to myself "yeah right" and say that that car isn't worth that much thinking it has a lot of miles on it. i ask if he would want to trade, my car is kind of beat up looking although i just washed it earlier in the day, and he didn't seem too interested. then i say i'd flip him some extra cash, so he points to pull over as the light turns green. we do, i find out it has almost the exact same milage as mine (101,400). i offered $800 in addition to the trade, he seemed interested and wanted to test drive it today. his car has no dents or damage, but mine has a tweaked hood and core support, a black bumper and 1 bent exaust tip. plus a long key mark along the right fender and passenger door that some unknown loser of a person made. of course his car is a lamer auto with velour interior opposed to my 5 speed with black leather so there are some downgrades that make the offer more fair. of course i deliever pizza so i wouldn't really mind the automatic and when it dies, i'll just swap in a 5 speed. the velour is probably more comfortable as well and i was planning on getting a katzkin set to replace my current leather anyway. hope the deal works out, i did hear him downshift once and it sounded like a chainsaw, i'll find out today probably during the test drive. if it all panned out, i'd have a clean black 93 se automatic for about $435, considering my current damaged maxima after insurance check, ended up being free plus about $365. i won't pick bones and factor in the registration costs but still $435 for an unregistered 100,000 mile black ve is a good deal if you ask me probably shouldn't count my chickens though..

 

thinking out loud?

 

sounds like a reasonable trade to me

 

i won't even stoop. nope, just passing time, have a nice day.

 

well if you think it's a good deal...then go for it. we can't really judge since we can't see the cars side by side.

 

Post pics when you are done.

 

There aren't any VE's in Portland because I have all of them in my garage
