Default Xa Coupe!

Well, Well. Some of you may remember me talking bout selling my old car (the one i had before I bought my AU Fairmont). The Corsair.. Well, Today I was talkin to a mate my older sis went to school with. He has an XA Coupe, which is unregistered, but has the 351, 12 slotters, good paint (a few dents) no rust and the interior needs work... that he wants to get rid of to buy a small car for his Wife to run around in coz the ELXR8 chews the fuel. When he asked what i got for the corsair, i told him i still had it, and he said he'd give me $1000 cash, plus the coupe, in Exchange for my Corsair... So,... coz I cant drive a v8 for another 2 yrs legally... IM PRETTY ECSTATIC.... might be able to spend a lot of time & money.. and have a HOT COUPE!!!!

Your rating on this forum has just soared.

Of course, if you'd like to make a tidy little profit on the coupe, I sure there are a few hundred people who would be able to help you out.

I call shotgun.

Wasn't there a thread a while back with a guy saying he got a coupe cheap? "Totaldriver" was his username, hope it doesn't turn out like that.....

I think this is a "Totaldriver" situation LOL. Although I just looked at her last activity on here which was 07.01.07 so she might be out there having too much fun in the coupe.
