This was the message I had waiting for me at home.
After I drove all the way up to Antioch (about an hour).
I called him from my cell phone like 10x. I called him once from my house phone. It wasn't the first ne or the last one and he was too lame to think "Gee -- I didn't get a message. I know he has a cell phone, so maybe I should call that other number..."
He said he thinks he's getting a divorce. Turns out that she didn't want to sell the car for some reason. I don't really know what the deal was, but I'm looking at the bright side. The Golf was a reasonable car, but I was making a few compromises for it.
So -- screw that. I'm on the lookout for a 300ZX. 8)

what a douche.
though, i can't really feel bad that you didn't get to buy a 21 year old car. You say "21 year old" like it's a bad thing.
Old cars are great. They're prettier and when something breaks, you get to make the car even better than you found it. | | From: | lishd |

i'm all about chris's '68 mustang. i even helped him buy it. i can't get excited about a car from the early '90s. Seriously -- that Golf had enough zip to it that it made me consider it EVEN THOUGH it was front wheel drive.
The only two things it needed were a new muffler (the dude put a motorcycle tip on it for reasons I will never be able to understand) and the clutch pedal readjusted. | | From: | lishd |

at least you can take comfort in the fact that he's getting divorced. True. The car's getting revenge on him for having been defaced in such a manner.
I'm OK with being an agent of justice. |
