Finally decided on a RL

Hert · 07-05-2008, 02:06 PM

After car shopping for months it came down to drive quality + looks + price and the Sky won by a long shot. I signed the papers on a 08 red redline thursday night and have to wait till next thursday to pick it up!

Either way just wanted to say thanks, been reading these forums for a month now and the information discussed on here made me aware of a few benefits and problems that I wasn't aware about.

Little info on me:

22 year old male in Toronto, Ontario. I am a full time IT Management student at Ryerson and I work part/full time hours with Weston Bakeries. I used to drve a 1999 Jeep TJ with a 4" susp lift and 33" mudders. I really just wanted something that was quick with great handling. Evos are ugly, convertable is a huge plus

Also I really just like the initial reaction I get from people when I tell them I bought a Saturn! Now I just gotta figure out what mods to do first.

Peace
-Mike

Smart decision. Remeber, you are buying more than a car with a Kappa vehicle. You are joining a club made up of some of the greatest folks on the road. Congratulations neighbor!

Congrats on the Sky!

Thanks guys,

Yeah I'm even doing operations and support for Weston's right now, so I'm even working in IT. Must have something to do with being so bored sitting infront of computers and wanting fun cars.
