Greetings From Eastern NC
Hello Aleromod.com
Adam - from eastern NC (stating the obvious already), I just yesterday traded my '08 Honda Civic, on my, shiny new to me; '01 Alero GLS.
The perfect example of grannys car. It was serviced at the same dealer since new, every single record of service, and already had the LIM gaskets done by the dealer. All for the tune of $4500 including the neg equity I rolled.
I have to say I love this car already, quirks and all. Already filmilar with the family, the girlfriend drives a 1996 Olds Cutlass Supreme CL Sport, (I had to the LIM gaskets myself ) But now I know how to do them. Well maybe thats a lil too much enthusiasim about it. Anyway pics soon to follow.
****UPDATE***** = Pics

$398/mo for 4 more years vs. $100/mo for 12 months
Ricer image, lack of TORQUE, even though I work at a Honda Dealership, I see every day in the drive lane the problems these newer (all makes and models) cars have. Anything 2002 and back is built like a TANK not a barbie car.

pie = cupcake = cake... all good.
Hurricane = Hana = Rain = Suxors
GM = Darside = Round three for me, First was and 83 Caprice, that rusted to dust and round two was
Just didn't really care for it and needed 2 more doors, but the 4-door was/is pretty fugly. That pic was with the Eibach Prokit and it still looked like a 4x4
