How long have you had it? :spot:

Why do you get rid of cars so frequently? :huh:

I bought it June 7th, 2003.

So roughly 2 years and 3 months.

:getdown:

Many reasons...

I get bored with them, have different needs in a vehicle... a couple of times I sold cars because I needed to save money.. The shortest amount of time I've owned a car was a week.... I totalled the car on day 6.

Yeah I know that, I seen the clean lines up front, and it's just my opinion, but having it on the dash is more retarded than having it on the front of the car, which I guess the whole point of my post was to just say I hate having to have a front plate :mad:

The only time I have the plate stuck to the windsheild is when I'm driving it. It's on suction cups, it just pops of easily.

Technically, my front plate mount is not legal. The law specifies it has to be at least 12 inches off the ground, and with my car lowered it's only 9 inches.

does Gwydion ever PM you asking to buy it back?:) Looks pretty damn good for a 8 year old car.:cool:

I think he was pretty much ready to be out of a F-body when he sold it. Dunno if he misses it or not, but I'd never sell it anyway.

I've put a lot of work into it since I bought it... I've spent more money on fixing it than I did buying it.

I've got you beat. I owned a Cavalier for six years and my Trans Am for four years before I got rid of them.

But congrats on owning the purple colored car for as long as you have.

I'm sure a lot of people have me beat... my ex-GF has had her Integra for 15 years, she bought it new and it has 270,000 miles on it now.

My Formula is just the car I've kept the longest... because I think I love it more than any car I've ever owned..

Now teh PuRpL3 has a brother :)
