My new car!! :D

[BloodMittens]

Well it's been awhile but I sold my Cadillac SRX about two days ago in full to a rather rich father who wanted to buy his son one for his 16th birthday. And now... it is time for Ashley to have a REALLL car

It took me awhile to find this beauty. But finally I am going to own one of the rarest cars in the US

Especially in IL.

Google Image of a 00' Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 *o* Ohhh it's mine nao.

Joey Feng's Skyline of Chicago. One of the 5 or 6 Skyline's in Illinois that are known.

ANNNDDDDD the baby I am buying from a man who needed to get rid of his Skyline because of his fiance and soon to be born twins:

She will be mine. I'm taking the two hour trip to get her next week. I CANNOT WAIT

My insurance each month is going to be a HUGE HAUL of it's own. Lol.
Wish me luck driving stick with my left hand!

Skylines are AMAZING. I wish they were legal here in Virginia, but I don't think they are.
Congratulations to you!

Haha, I'm a huge car girl ever since I was little. I always believed my dad wished me to be a boy, so that he could have a son to raise up on cars, but he made due with me. Lol.

It's a 2000. And I will be most definitely racing it at least twice a year at a drag race special my dad goes too :O It's gonna be fun.

Well this one was actually purchased in California by this guy's friend, from a company that brings them into the US, makes them legal (but doesn't do anything to the engine or exhaust) by going through all the paperwork that normally I would have had to go through. I am not sure about all the legal stuff the company had to go through, but I know they just didn't swap the VIN's on it or anything. Apparently Illinois is actually pretty lax on driving foreign cars, so I didn't have too much of a problem getting the title in my name or anything. Insurance was kinda annoying though since I'm only 20 and I have two cars under my name.

So apparently his friend bought it, the guy drove to get it about 3 years ago, fixed it up, made it look amazing and now unfortunately he had to sell it. But of course I promised him that he will get frequent updates on the car

It was like his child. I don't blame him.

I will not suggest buying one unless you have the type of money needed to take care of it and... pay for the insurance. My insurance went up almost 250% because of this car. Nooooo joke. It's very expensive to own, and it's not like you can use it for a everyday car obviously. Mine stays in my father's work garage and I take a 2003 Olds Aurora to work and such.

Oh, and you get pulled over a lot. I've only had the car for two and a half weeks and I've gotten pulled over 3 times already. Mostly because the cops didn't believe the car was street legal, when it is. One of the times was when I was downtown for the Air and Water Show this last weekend

That is such an awesome car!!
I love me my cars, and the skyline is up in my top 10! One of my friends had one and let me drive it on a few occasions... I never wanted to drive it home and never give it back

Have fun with it!!!
