    Do it! lmao!
    It is going to the shop Monday, if all is well I AM doing it ;)

    He curbed the car and needed a rim and a steering component replaced. He claimed it for 2500, but I'm not sure why. As long as the frame isn't bent, or hasn't been straightened, I'm going for it.

    Ya they are a terrifying prospect lmao, I would not be going for it if the car did not have all service records/history etc.

    Also that it was a one owner car, which are positives.

    I should know tday or tomorrow if I can get the car, couple more things need to fall into place first.

    After 7+ months of car searching, and another 2 weeks of finding an auto shipping company...The Car arrives tomorrow evening.

    Already bought some lighting upgrades (LEDs), looking at (Lighter weight) Competition rims now.

    OK no more pictures until it is a picture of your specific car ;)

    Two weeks with the Mazdaspeed to get a stone chip in the windshield...sigh.

    Rust proofing tomorrow, kinda sad about that.

    Have a 1995 Corolla with 135,000 miles on it. Bought it new.
    It is so quiet it is amazing. Fun to drive the 5 speed, gets 30 MPG or better. Great car!

    small car vs' powerful barge car in a cat & mouse game.
    this was me and my friends.

    toyota corolla. me.
    ford elite/ford torino and monte carlos. friends. all are so much faster than my scrapyard little 4 banger.

    they rarely caught me.
    the main reason... they weren't as nuts and they can't drive and what they used was to big for tight driving.
    dicks.

    if you're gonna play cat and mouse you had better be willing to do 70 over several sets of speed bumps, jump highways, and blast around like a dumb asshole.

    toyota corollas are tough little shits.

    Hold On
