Goodbye NFR AP1
So I drive up to Charleston to ship my car out and they give me the finger telling me that I have to have the OEM key in case the battery dies and they need to get in the car ( uh hello this is why you disconnect the battery and have the hood latch undone...r tards) so in turn I give them the finger and "thanks for nothing assholes" look...not realizing that I am gonna have to go back there on a day or two...so I make my way over to Grainger Honda to get an OEM key programmed...yea waste of 53 dollars...anyways to the main point of getting an AP2...my AP1 has been running great ever since I have had it ( aside from the clutch ) and even all the way up to Charleston and back...so as soon I get the new programmed key and fire up the NFR and drive off...right as im getting onto 516 East she is running like a bag of ass sputtering along no power whatsoever and sounding like a misfire someone in there...I take it easy all the way to Southern Motors and they run a diagnostic on it thinking that it might be the plugs or a bent/broken valve...cant be a bent/broken valve cause I havent sucked up ANY water...I avoid that stuff like the plague...hopefully its just the plugs cause a head job is almost 3grand...anyways they put it on the lift and show me and now I know why there are no VIN numbers anywhere to be found under the hood...this has got to be the worst welding/bondo job I have ever seen...the radiator is bent up like a "v" there is overspray everywhere all the way up to the front wheels...horrible there goes depreciation value...so after the fact I say why dont you just trade me the yellow AP2 for my NFR...and ten minutes later were doing up the paperwork process...alas the banks were closed by the time it came around to getting lender answers so I will be sticking around until tomorrow afternoon to hear back from them...hopefully everything will play out good and I will have a 2004 Rio AP2 with 14000 miles on it...wish me luck y'all...I might even be able to make it to one last Thursday meet who know???



I saw that Rio on my way to work this morning
