Cars

Happy Thursday Everyone! For me, today is my Friday and I'm so happy this weekend is off to an early start. Even though I'm working, somehow my body still knows it's summer, which thus forces me to stay up late almost every single night. Matt has literally had to kick or push me out of bed this week. Ahhh so looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow :-)


So today's topic is CARS. Here is a pic of me with my favorite car at a car show I went to on vacation this summer.




Ahhh what a beauty! She's a Mustang but that's not why I liked it. The COLOR, of course!! I love neon colors, especially lime green. But anyway....take a look at my real dream car.




It's the MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE SPYDER. Every time I see this car, I gasp at its beauty. I think I like it because of how sleek and modern it looks. Sporty, yet not TOO sporty. And I would take it in no other color than burnt orange. Maybe some day....

But unfortunately our budget could only afford this:



This is a 2001 Hyundai Accent that we just recently bought. Isn't she a beauty? I know you're probably jealous. But we figured it was time to buy a new(er) car before the Grand Prix was too far gone that it would have to be hauled away.

To wrap things up, I'd like to share the Craigslist ad I would have written for the old red. Enjoy.

FOR SALE!!!
2001 Grand Prix Special Edition
Up for sale is a brilliant red sportscar that would be perfect for anyone, young or old. It is like mint condition minus the following :
Paint job is flaking off (but the red parts are still shiny)
Power steering rack leaks (no power steering, grows great muscles)
Dent in passenger door (door creaks open)
No A/C (hey, just open the windows)
No heat (wear a parka in the winter)
Defroster is extremely slow (just plug in a hair dryer to warm up the windshield when it's iced over)
Passenger seat belt a bit beat up (dog ripped it up)
RUNS GREAT!!! Come look before this one gets away.

In the end, it sold for $800. Of course my husband made the ad sound much better and some desperate young man drove away with it the same day the ad was posted. We pray for his safety.
