All right, so I've wanted a new car for about a year now, and I went back and forth the whole time between different cars. GSR, MKII MR2, Lexus SC300, Audi A4, but I always in the back of my head wanted a S14.

Well, after a long wait, I finally found the one I wanted.  I just finalized the deal earlier today for a 1996 SE 5-Speed.  It was exactly the car I wanted: black, manual and low miles (58,xxx). Also, it doesn't hurt that the interior looks brand new.

I'm at work right now, otherwise I'd be out driving it, but I drove it on the freeway on the way to work and it is definitely a lot quicker than I thought it was going to be.

On a less enthusiastic note, while on my way to the mechanic to have the car looked at, a lady decided that she wasn't happy with her lane on the road and decided to come into mine without looking and without a turn signal, causing me to swerve into the turn lane to avoid contact.  That really would have ruined my day.

I really liked my P10 Infiniti G20, but I already like this car better, it feels good to stay in the family though

damn... im startin to think that maybe ppl have this unknown sense that kicks in when someone with a "new" car is around, and makes them do really stupid things causing us to almost wreck our new cars... <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/alien.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':alien:'> &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/hmmm.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':hmmm:'>
