About

Started really getting into cars when I turned 18. My stepdad didn’t want me to get my permit when I was 16 so that’s why I didn’t really get into cars until I was 18. In 2009 I purchased a 1993 Toyota MR2. It was a non-turbo model that I got for $1,100. This was the car that really helped me learn about maintenance. The car broke down a lot so with the help of my mechanic uncle I learned a great deal.

A couple of years later I purchased another car and it was a black 1995 Nissan 240SX. I’ve always wanted a 240 even before I owned my MR2. I was never able to find a clean one until I saw this ad on Craigslist. It was going for $3,900 and I knew I had to get it. I called the small dealership and checked it out the next day. I test drove the car and everything felt nice. The car was in pristine condition. I knew I just had to get it! So after a bit of back and forth we agreed on a deal at the price of $3,100 out the door.
