greg1647545532 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Well, you're not the only one who thinks I'm retarded. CL keeps "ghosting" the ad. The version that finally stuck isn't nearly as gay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

87GT Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 Here let me help you 2005 Toyota Corolla LE This '05 Corolla was purchased in the Summer of '04 at a small dealership in Bellevue, Nebraska. Things were different then; we were young, optimistic, in need of a new car. She came to be known in our minds as Carol, the Corolla, but in our hearts she was basic transportation. We shared some good times. Well, commutes mostly, but dammit if they weren't completely uneventful commutes. Life was good. Carol moved with us to Washington DC, where she quietly tolerated the shift from country bumpkin to big city glamour. Sure, the commutes were longer, slower, more frought with peril, but she never complained. Thoroughly satisfied with her reliability, we allowed her to settle down and transport a family in Ohio. Sadly, things weren't always easy for Carol. She was recently involved in a front-end collision. She's been repaired, patched up by modern technology. But some say that when you look into her eyes all you see are replacement headlights. Maybe she's changed. Maybe we've changed. Our transportation needs have certainly changed. But I believe that deep beneath that hood lies a 1.8 liter engine just eager to crank out another 150,000 miles of forward movement. The car has been pampered with Mobil 1 oil and filters its entire life. The 60,000 mile service was performed at 56,000 miles by a reputable Toyota dealership in Arlington, VA. The front brake pads are newer Hawk HP+ units, and can stop the car as fast as you'd ever need to stop a Corolla. To eliminate some of the unsightly wheel gap present on all Corollas, this car has been fitted with Tein H-Tech springs. The wheels. Ah yes, the wheels. They're green. Scratch that, they're British Racing Green. Why? Look, if I can't explain it to my wife, my parents, or my friends, don't expect me to be able to explain it to you. I just did it, OK? And now they're green. Rest assured that the stock 15" alloy (non-green) will come with the car, as well as the stock springs, a couple extra filters I have lying around, and anything else Corolla-related I happen to find between now and the time of sale. Please respond via email to set up a test drive. The car is located near the OSU campus and is available just about all the time. * 83,000 miles * Automatic * Phantom Gray Pearl * 1.8L 1ZZ 130hp 4-cylinder * Front Wheel Drive Optional Equipment: * Power Glass Sunroof * JBL Sound System with 6-disk in-dash CD changer * Alloy Wheels VIN: 1NXBR32E65Z370356 PRICE: $6500 OBO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted October 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Well, you're not the only one who thinks I'm retarded. CL keeps "ghosting" the ad. The version that finally stuck isn't nearly as gay. I didn't say retarded, it's just the wheels, springs, and special story about a Corolla of all things, you're special.

Patterson Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 If only it were a stick. I kinda like the wheels, the rears need spacers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
