This is your webmaster speaking. I would like to make anannouncement. I built this site because I love the MX-6. Ever since I first saw it 3 weeks before I bought mine in an autohunter I knew I had to own one. I loved my current car, a 1989 Thunderbird SC, but it was to large and heavy, and I wanted a standard car. The 84 Nissan 200sx's clutch was shot as you will read below so that didnt work out. It was then that I set out to find myself an MX-6 LS for not to much more than what I sold my T-Bird for.
Timeline of My car purchases and Events
October 8th, 1998
One day before my 17th birthday, I purchaced my first car. Sitting in a sandpit with a flat front tire was A 1989' Ford Thunderbird Supercoupe. 1989 Motor Trend car of the year, the Extremely agile luxury sports sedan won my hard earned $2,000 that it took to take it home. Little did I know the car was worth more than $4,000 to the right person. Guess the previous owners didnt know that. 210hp Supercharged 3.8l v6 engine, Leather interior, power everything, ajustable air ride suspension. It had it all, along with 143,000 miles. But it didnt matter that the origional supercharger was only rated at 110k miles, I had my first car.Fall of 98, November I think
2 of my friends and I got this idea that it would be really cool to buy a rally car and beat it in the woods for fun. Then take it out and do cookies on the lake in the winter. So we found our perfect rally car. A 1984 Nissan 240sx. It was perfect because it was, a standard transmission, 4cyl with 8 sparkplugs (we felt that was better for rallying incase you blew a plug you could still run it and it wouldnt cost any money) The struts were shot which make driving through the woods 3x more harsher than it really was because the suspension magnifyed the rally experience. 3 hours after we bought it the clutch blew. The engine had 197,000 Miles. No wonder huh?March 19th, 1999
However completely unrelated to my car owning experiences, on march 19th, a friday I was nearly killed in a car accident while riding in the passenger seat of my friends 91 thunderbird LX. See pictures of the car and wonder how I survived (HERE)Spring of 99'
My friend and I picked up a 1990 Pontiac Grand AM with a "bad wheel bearing" for 300$ and after fixing some surface rust and the bearing we turned around and sold it 11 days after buying it for $2,000 I used the Money to buy a Kawasaki 650sx. A standup style jetski which ive had a lot of fun on this summer.Friday, August 27th 1999
I picked up my 93' Mazda MX-6 LS in maine. I had to drive 2 hours each way to pick it up.
