It’s a weird day today. And I’m sorry if I kept some of you guys in the dark. But I sold my STI today. I did not advertise it anywhere or put a part-out party...just word of mouth, until the right buyer at the right time came in. And it was quick and smooth. I guess you can say, “another one bites the dust”. And I’m sad to let her go. But it’s been 5 great years, and 60k+ miles of pure torque and power...I can say that I enjoyed my car to the fullest. At least she will be going to a good home.

It’s weird because I normally don’t get attached to cars as much. But this car is different, with so many stories to tell from every part that was installed, to every nook and cranny...there is a story to tell. But then, I also realized that it’s the people who I will miss the most...the camaraderie and brotherhood of HIIC is just awesome.

It’s weird because I’m not saying goodbye, but probably will take a long break. Priorities and lifestyle has changed and it’s just time to move on. I will still be around so please no tear-jerker comments on here. I can say that I made lots of friends here and they will always will be.

If you want any hiking hook-ups, just send me a message on FB. You guys know where to find me. The HIIC Ninja will most likely carry on the legacy of the infamous HIIC Cruises, I’m sure.

In the meantime, I will go get myself a base Ford Fiesta. I’ll put a super charger on it and beat some ‘lil *** neons. Then I’ll put some chrome plated rim covers and muffler tip from Walmart and start smoking some imports, y’all!

Well, I’ll see you guys around...(from my rearview mirror).

 

Sucks that u sold it. But know what u mean. Hope ur back into a suby sooner then later.

 

Like I told u before sad to see you let her go...but on to bigger things...Besides u can always come back...

 

Sad to see the STI go Ted, but GREAT CALL on a Fiesta!! I <3 the Fiesta.

 

Dang. Sad, but sometimes just gotta sell um. I wanna sell my lgt but seeing many people try over the years and noticing practically no interest, I know it won't happen.

 

Oh god don't remind me, haha. At least yours is 5 speed! Try selling an auto!

Anyway back on topic...

 

lol, now u know why i called you this morning.

yes, BIGGER things...


lol! sorry joey....i was joking on that one. i love fiesta's too, but the thing is too manini for my gears.

 

it's a tough market for sure...that's why i did not even bother posting it.

 

Is the LGT that bad?

I'm loving mine and the fact that it doesn't attract any attention to me is a bonus.... I really like it that it's stealth.

I'll be keeping mine for a few more years until the new breed of Subies arrive...

I guess to each his own...

Ted, I hope your next car will be a better one than the last! Think positive!

 

No, don't get me wrong I LOVE the car to death. I just have no motivation to keep modding it (nor the funds). Even though there's tons of mods I can do still, personally I feel like I've "maxed out" on the car. I also love how under the radar this car is, but unfortunately that's what makes it so darn hard to sell. No one knows about them, or their potential. I just want a new project but can't afford to keep the lgt also.

 

 

I-Club is going to miss a great organizer and friend. Aloha, don't forget to beep if you see us in Ewa.

 

Sad to hear that Ted...at least it's gone to a good home.

Dude...I miss my Leggie...you'd sell yours?

 

Ya know... when you have a LGT that can outrun and outhandle almost any car on the road and yet keep it looking and sounding stock... it's a very good thang.

You should see some of the drivers' faces of total disbelief and shock when they notice 'grandpa's' Leggie keeping up with them and then passing them... very quickly.

And no matter hard they try, they simply can't catch up. It's a great feeling...

I simply LOVE being in permanent stealth mode.

 

Thanks, Simon. Although that better car will have to wait a while...



hey now...no be li'dat!



Thanks, Dan...thank you for "being there" all the way...

too good of a home...she might get too spoiled...lol.
