Danny, you are so right. I get the urge for a 3G again but honestly I think that ship has sailed.
At least for the time being...
A new one will certainly pop up.

Alright, fine...
a couple months back, I got to thinking about how deeply invested into the 2004 I was becoming and I started questioning my decision to sell the KBP in the first place. I don't think I truly appreciated the opportunity to get it back the 2nd time around...I did have a knot in my stomach when I sold it in September of 2020 though, especially the day I parted ways with it but at that point, it was too late. No ragrets..Mainly, it was knowing I would likely not rebuild something that I knew that well and that had that many high end modifications to it.
Anyway, about 2 months ago on a whim, I texted @nist7 late on a Saturday night asking how he and the wife were doing and how the blue car was. To my surprise, he told me all was excellent but that some circumstances arose that made him consider selling the blue car. He said he had planned to text me to let me know and what a serendipitous coincidence that I had reached out first. I knew it was a move I would make in a heartbeat so we struck a deal that was fair to us both...and I bought a one way ticket to KC. Flew in Monday morning early, drove 11 hours to Birmingham the first night...then home through that storm on Tuesday for an additional 14 hours and a total of 1600 miles. Averaged 29 mpg driving it however I wanted to...
Thanks again, Ming...modern day classic IMO and I won't make the mistake of letting this one go again. It's getting bumped down to bottom bitch alongside the S2000. If I have to thin the herd, this is a car I would not at all mind daily driving. A couple of odds and ends to address and eventually I'll deal with redoing the bumpers and maybe more...but in the meantime, I'm in heaven.

The real reason I bought it is because THE penguin once sat in it and drove it
Thanks brother, flip the channel! You're watching Lifetime and you meant to tune into Cinemax back in the day!
LOL, we shall see if he comes through. Otherwise, I think I have some ideas for where it'll end up. Either way, loving this platform...always have...always will.
