Heh, for real, I was relieved when I sold my car but yet sad at the same time. I really do miss it, it was my first "real" car in terms of insurance, car payment, title, and everything including repairs and all. But that Talon seems pretty nice so what I have to do is just look at it and if I like then i'll buy it.

Do anyone of you guys no any reliable dsm's (turbo of course) that are up for sale besides that one? Thanks for the comments guys.

reliable dsms. lol I thought you already owned one...you should know by now.

by my experience, reliable dsm means it is running > 50% of the time. still, i choose a fun dsm 50% of the time over a slow toyota 100% of the time.

I call my dsm reliable if it continues to move under its own power. Right now it is "reliable" if I don't go into boost, but it still gets me a-b. I don't like the problems that cause them to stop moving altogether, those are more annoying

Just make sure you can drive it after you buy it. Unlike me who bought his new car and its been sitting on jackstands since. Mainly b/c Im po' and spent all my money on the car. But all good things come to those who wait. Hence my big 16g arrives today
