Title: ever sell and miss it? :(
Post by: ZachS on January 29, 2003, 06:21:56 PM
My TGP is officially gone now.  It sat in the garage for a few weeks waiting for its new owner.  The new owner has plans for it... so that is a good thing.  But I feel like a part of me is gone.  :(

I've got the DOHC Z34, and I DO like the car and the broad power range, but I miss the turbo torque.  I miss the mystery.  I miss beating fox body stangs, and 3rd gen F-bodies.   I miss my car.  :(

Sucks now... because God knows I cant afford another one.  One of the reasons I sold was because of all the mileage that I was putting on the car.  Now I'm all moved in to a new place, and I've got a 5 mile drive to work each day.  Just makes me wish that I would have just stuck it out.  

Know anybody that has a TGP (i'm not picky! :) )... and wants a nice black Z34?   :cry:

Anyway... just felt the need to post.  Havent been on the boards for a while now because I've been so busy with work and stuff.  Hope everybody is doing Ok, and everybody is having fun with the boost.  :)  

Take it easy all,
Zach

Who would want that ugly Z-34  :!:  :?:  :idea:  :?  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

No really, that a very nice consolation prize.  I owned a 3.4 GP b4 the TGP and they are nicely comparable.  I believe the 3.4's have a slightly better final drive ratio of 3.44 vs 3.33 so they do a good job also.  No sunroof so it's probably a little lighter.  I will trade you for my extra TGP.
It doesn't look that good.   Take care.

Hey guys...

Thanks for the props on the Z34.  Got a lot of miles... just bc of all the driving I've done in the past 8 months.  Has like... 145K?  Runs like a champ.  Trans shifts like new.

Just had the Audiovox 995C alarm/remotestart/keyless system installed. Two way remote, window module and the works.

System in it is sad right now.  Has Infinity 4X6's in the dash, cheap sony 6X9's in the rear.  Car is completely re-wired stereo wise.  Had the shitty Bose system, but I ran all new Monster Speaker Cable to the speakers.  Had plans for a big bass setup, so I've got two 4ga power wires ran VERY nicely, but no amps or anything yet in back.

Pictures in just a minute...

Good looking car man. What year is it? 145k is a bit more than I would like, but maybe we could work something out. Tires in good shape? Interior with any blemishes in upholstery? Oil or Tranny leaks? Windows seal? Shakes or shimmy's while your driving it? That sort of thing... 8)
