I wrecked my new Honda!!!!!;(
Just kidding. Haha. That would be pretty Sh*tty ey? Anyway, after having my new Honda Accord Coupe V6 for like 5 days I sold it for more than I got it for. This guy appoached me at a stoplight and asked if I was interested in selling the car. At first I told him no and that I just got it but then he said he would be willing offer a fair amount for it. OUT OF CURIOSITY, he said to meet him at this Jamba Juice near by and we could talk about it. We met up and he asked to look at it. I took him back to the car, showed him the inside, exterior, told him it was still under factory warranty, etc. He liked what he saw and then asked to drive it. It was then I was getting a little nervous. Who knows what this guy could have been capable of doing...
I decided to let him and we went around the block a few times, he gunned it a few times on clear straight aways, and then proceeded back to the Jamba Juice. We both got out and he said he liked it and wanted to buy it. I hesistated, one because I JUST GOT THIS CAR (and if I was going to sell it I wanted MORE than I JUST PAID FOR IT), and two...IS THIS GUY FOR REAL? I told him again that I just got it and he interupted me and offered 11,000! Inside I was like DAMN. I didnt pay even close to that. He told me he needed a decition fairly quickly and after telling him to give me a few minutes I told him "Sold"
After that he said he would give me a call on Sat. morning (this all went down Fri. night) and he would pay it in either cash or Certified Bank check. I said the bank check would be fine. So came Sat. morning and I got the call. I had spent Friday night making up the bill of sale, etc. I met him again at the JJ (not too far from my house) and he handed over the bank check (which happened to be a Bofa check, same bank as me). I handed him over the keys and said the same thing the nice lady who sold me the car said...take care of her. Just before he left I asked him why he wanted this Honda, since he drives BMW. He said the car wasnt for him, it was for his daughter who happened to have the SAME car but wrecked it about a month ago. Apparently she was really attached to the car and he wanted to buy her the same car. He said he told her about it and she was extatic.
So after handing over the title, and keys, etc I went to the bank deposited my check (yes it was good), and headed home on the bus.
Here is the next part of my story...I am now the proud owner of a VW Jetta GLS Turbo (Wolfsburg Edition) 2000. I got it for a STEAL of 7,500 from this nice gentleman in GA. It is STILL under factory warranty, has been kept up to date on everything maintenance wise, CLEAN and I mean CLEAN interior (still has a brand new car smell), no defects at all. This guy is an older guy who bought this car for his wife who passed. Since then the car has been garaged (why it still has new car smell) and he just wanted to get rid of it ASAP.
QUITE A STORY EY?! Anyway, I am no longer a Honda owner but I will be around here still saying hi, posting a few, etc.
