1 video card, a storage HDD and Win7Pro to go on my computer. Then I start saving for a second car. Wonder what I'll be looking for... Maybe a 3rd gen coupe? I'm pretty set on either another J or another Corolla. Either will make me happy. Something I can drive until something goes horribly wrong rendering it irreparable.

My sights are now set on a 3rd gen J with the LN2 and a 5 speed. I know the LN2 better than the LD9 or ecotecs, so I can keep it going without sending it to the shop. We'll see what Kijiji holds over the next few months. All the used 7 and 8 gen corollas are ratbagged or poorly maintained, and I'm not spending a bunch of money just to get it through inspection. I want a car I can get going for cheap and have fun modding.

Not a bad price for the mileage. Never had to deal with pulling a trans, but I hope I never have to.

It sure beats paying upwards of $2,000.00 for a rebuilt transmission! It's a complex job I must say, very time consuming! Not to mention you gotta rip apoart 1/2 your front end!

If I had the money now, I would. As it stands now, I have a yogurt container with $42.50 in rolled change to spend on a car. I wish I were joking.

I need to get rid of my 2nd gen. If anyone wants it and has the means to haul it to where ever you want, its yours. Free. Just take it from my yard here in GP.

I'm probably gonna be selling my cavy come spring/summer once I find the truck I want for a decent price. Looking for a '07 & up Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon, crew cab, 4X4, 3.7L, Z71 Off-Road Package.

Spring/Summer is about my buying time. Do you have a price in mind?

I'd probably be asking around $1500 - $2000 o.b.o. when the time comes to sell my car. It's a 2001 Chevy Cavalier Z24, metallic silver, 2.4L, with 297,000 km on the body (some minor rust) and engine (which still runs strong!!), I recently replaced the 5-speed manual transmission (the used one has 70K on it, and shifts like new!!), and the clutch assembly (now has about 25K on it). All of my "add-ons" are in my profile, you can check em out there.

Given the price and what you've done to it, I'd be glad to pay somewhere around there. Just let me know when you want to sell, and we'll work something out.

Come spring/summer time it'll be pushing just over 300K and i'll sell Brad those parts he asked for seperately, so id probably ask around $1500 o.b.o. for my car

Consider the rest of the car spoken for, then. I'm fine with stock headlights, and I can probably order new sway bars.

it'll have the OEM bar back on it either way for up front, rear isn't really needed unless you have other suspension mods for it.
