just 9k, will try to get it down to 7.5 or 8 with the Lancer as a trade in if it drives well. The kind of bang for buck I was looking for. The more I find out about this car the more I like it.

Finally a win?

Fun to drive and in great condition, got it down from 9k to 7.5k after opening at 7k. Actually returned to the first guy I visited. The lead mechanic had convinced him to put this up for sale usually he doesn't offer rare cars like these. I wonder if the lead mechanic did me a solid because he knows I was looking for something like this there is only a total of 2 of these models for sale in this country and I bought 1 one of them.

Will pick it up thursday. It's not the car I expected to end up with. Half my budget of 15k even.

Overall I just love the design. From some angles it looks like a sports sedan:


and from others a hatchback or crossover


It actually won a Red Dot Design award.

In ways it reminds me of the Lancer. Consumer model based on an iconic Fast & Furious / Need for Speed race car: Lancer Evo. This one again reminiscent of another favorite of mine, the Hyundai Coupe. The best engine config too. They launched these with a 4 cilinder 84hp engine and replaced it with a 100hp turbo engine which this model has. It gives it the punch it needs to overtake and accelerate faster. The other model also doesn't have the nav system, LED lights and better rims etc. . I might give it a single offset hood racing stripe and a windshield sticker to give it a little edge.

The German girl is still in touch. She reminds me of the German Latina has the same dream too, opening a bar in my town. But this one is still hopeful and joyful not jaded and defeated, not a single mom. I told her pics or it didn't happen when she went to bed and while she kept it classy she got the message that this is more than 'friendly' so I'm not complaining about a long distance text fling with a 33 year old.
