HondaBoy Wants to Buy my Max

Ok....heres da deal. Have a few partners into cars and racing...I consistently hand most of my friends there own A$$'s when it comes to racing, however one of my pals tends to take the but woop'n personally every time. He's adds all sorts of crap to his car (accord) but nothings help'n em. I don't have crap on mine when it comes to performance....just a drop in K@N, thats it. The other night, we were all drinking at the barracks, and my boys like "Yo, I wanna buy your car". Im like "whatever, sure thing, hit me off wit 19k and it's a bet (basically F'n around wit him)" he's like "cool".........now, My friend is spoiled, so I know he has the money, but I still didn't take him too seriously (Im mean after all we WERE drinking) but just yesterday, sober, he approached on the same "wanna buy" tip. What do you guys think? I love my car....no....I LUV MY CAR! But in light of the situation I was thinking hmmm.....19 will probably let me get another one, same year, same color and with the same Cosmetics I've got on her now (she's loaded...sooo beautiful) but minus the mileage and little dam specs up front in the paint from highway travel.....Maybe even with cash left.....what do you guys think? Should I do it?

19K for a 97 Max sounds awesome. are you going to include the aftermarket rims, or you gonna put back the stock rims?

He wants her as is.....17' Chrome Mas Italy Rogers and all....but.....but......I mean....SHE'S like my first "dream Car" people...theres a lotta sentimental value to her even if she's got 70,000 miles on her. She's NEVER given me so much as peep when it comes to performance. I KNOW he's probably going to go all "Rice" crazy on her if I give her up and....i don't know. MAXINE deserves better ......am I being too difficult here? Should I just wake up and smell da dam Coffee...HELP! Im so confused

CAPITONE, listen to me VERY carefully you bish:

First are you auto or stick ??

Ok this is what you need to do my maxima friend:

Sell that damn car. Buy a '95 Superblack SE 5spd w/around 50-60,000 miles for about 9k. It will probubly of been driven by a granny due to the low milage like mine was. Then with the extra cash, get rims, clear corners, suspension, tint, exhaust, intake, and SUPERCHARGE it. Then with the extra wad of $$$ you have take your girlfriend out, buy her somethin and impress her, and put the rest towards your bright future in your job!

Bad idea selling cars to friends. If its a good friend, help him find a car (maybe 5 speed 5th gen max). If you don't care, sell him yours and get a 5th gen

Capitone, my brotha, to basically sum up what I told you earlier:

1)Sell your car to the rice boy

2)Buy a '95 5spd and supercharge it

3)be prepared to be one of the fastest cars on the road

4)invest/save/spend the rest

I dont know what rank are you but I know you dont make that much, you can go out and search get another 97 supercharge it and mod it a bit more than this one and still spank him bad, or you can get a 5th gen in stick for about 17k. This is a hard decision and I am feeling you on this one.

I've done neither. After all....he is my friend even if he does drive a Honda. I told him I wouldn't sell, then I told him why....somewhere along the lines of "You idiot!!! Stop being lazy! Just get yourself one and Mod it however you want, Save Ya Dam Money, I don't have the heart to Rob you". As for money, I KNOW he has the dough, this Honda he has now is the only car he's held onto for over a year, prior to that, he was buying cars left and right....Sh*t his moms got em a GS 300 for his birthday last year, but he doesn't do anything to it Mod wise, he just drives it on weekdays. He drives the honda on Weekends when all of us are out and about.....I won't speak much more on it....to have that much loot at your disposal disgusts me....IM STILL PAY'n on My MAX!!!
