It was a bright summers afternoon - and I was on my way to GTAutos to pick up my r33. My bro was driving me in his S2000, we have the top down - and Im so eager to hand over the Bank CHQ for $17,000 and get the hell outta there in my new ride.
First thing I see is that Jarrod was washing my car - man did that car shine that day. The new HR Racing Rims, the fresh interior - gawd, I would have thought I died and went to heaven!
Hurried in, and paid the cash, Waynes dad quickly went through the warranty - and then I got handed the keys! But first problem! The cars immob locked the engine and I couldnt start it up. In my hurry, I couldnt figure out what was going on - then my bro told me to press the unlock button, and presto - she let out an almighty yawn!
I close the door, and Look around - this is my car now! I couldnt believe it! 6 years of working in retail paid off! As I drove it out of the dealership I couldnt help but have a huge grin on my face! You know that new car smell that we all get when we first get our skylines - that was what I was getting high on that day!
Still remember I wasnt getting used to the gears and all - as the honda civic had a very light clutch - this was more heavy. And gawsh! The turbo! It was sooooooooooooooooo nice!!! And the sports car ride...I was heading down mountain hwy that day - and it was just like wow! I remember I kept thinking "man im so glad I didnt end up with that non turbo supra!!"
I swear, I will never forget it - its just the most awesome experience when you finally own something that you worked so hard to get...
