Stress, stress, stress... He is kind of my last hope before I sell the car to a garage for quite a bit cheaper... I'm leaving to Japan in 13 days. The guy is a mechanics, and he comes down with his wife from a town 1 and a half hour away from here... He comes with the money and is motivated.

Wish me luck guys, it's actually the first car I ever sell lol.

Here is what could be be my next car for your time :)

Japanese Celica 2000GT, the ones with the proper 140hp engines (the US 2.0 and 2.2L were making less than 100hp). Yup, DAMN sweet hehe :)

But it's a possible choice among many other.

Sonofabitch! You do realize that a classic fastback Celica is on my "Top-3" bucket list, right?

If you get it, what would I have to do to ride in it?

I don't know what the other options are, but this sounds like the best choice to me! ;)

I am also biased since I love classic JDM and am a die hard Toyota fan.

You're in Japan? If you're in Japan, not much, just come and say hi. As I said, not sure I get one yet. I might go with an Hakosuka converted Skyline, an Alpina C2 or B6 (engine size to be determined) or many, many other cars haha.

First I'll probably buy a cheap ass miata as soon as I arrive though, the "proper" car will come during or after winter.

I copy past what I answered already: "Hakosuka converted Skyline, an Alpina C2 or B6 (engine size to be determined) or many, many other cars haha."

Could be a 240Z also...

No, sadly I'm in America.

I specifically plan on one day buying and importing a '77 GT RA28 18-RG W50 from Australia at some point in my life.

thx... he'll be here in 30 minutes. I never stress much, but for some reasons, selling my car for the first time is terribly stressful to me haha

I can understand the stress. Hang in there.

Ah, suppose I should have read the other comments.

In that case, Hakosuka. Always Hakosuka. haha

Well, it's not gonna be a "real" Hakosuka... same engine, body, same everything, but it will be conversion. I can't really afford a real one for now haha

The converted Skyline is about twice the price of the 2000GT... So I don't know... I'll see when I'm there I guess :)

With a screen name like this, you better come to Japan some day, I will gladly show fellow Oppo members around :)
