New Car

Today I traded in my 2000 Toyota Celica GTS for a 1991 Toyota Celica Turbo AllTrac.

It's cool.

I don't get it until tomorrow, though :(

Ooh. New toy!

With plusses:

1. It's way cool
2. Insurance is significantly less because it is older
3. No car payments
4. Alltrac = Full time all wheel drive
5. Turbo = cool
6. Being the production version of Toyota's rally car, it should be great in the snow (and I can laugh at all the SUVs that aren't great in the snow).
7. It's fairly rare

Minuses:

1. It's fairly rare (parts are expensive)
2. It looks like most repairs are labor intensive (expensive)

However, I'm going to try to do as much work on it myself as I can (I figure I can buy a cheapo used Civic/Corolla/Echo/whatever with the money I'm saving if something catastrophic happens and I'm without a working car).

Hopefully it won't come to that, though.

Sweet! Pictures?

I'll take some after I get the car (should be ready soon ... )

cool! i can't wait to see it :)

Yeah.

I need to get un-lazy about it, take a few digital pictures, and post them.
