Allee Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 I'm currently in negotiations to buy a car from a dealer in Orem, UT. If it all goes OK I'll be flying in to SLC in a couple of weeks to drive it back to Calgary. Any Bomber locals that would be willing to meet a fellow Bomber at the airport, and maybe lend me a couch for the night? I can bring alcohol of your choice as payment :-) Damn shame it's a little early in the season to go riding, but what can you do - besides, I really want to get this car back to Canada before the Canadian government starts regulating ... And if said Bomber member was anywhere around Orem and wanted to volunteer to check out and test drive said car for me, that would be totally awesome too. I'm having to rely on pics and service centre inspections at the moment. Any help would be appreciated! Pic of said car shoudl be attached - isn't it cute? suzuki.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilledog Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Please email me with info. You might have to watch the twins for a couple of hours ;) Orem is around 50 minutes from my home. dave@hardbooter.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyYT316 Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Hey Allee, I'm in the Provo/Orem area and can totally go test drive a car for you! I could even possibly pick you up at the airport, depending on the day and time you come in. I'll have to see about setting you up with a couch or something to crash on, but I'll look into it for you. Looks like a nice car for a little high speed rallying up the canyon! just kidding, looks like a good car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted October 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Dave, that would be great if you had a place to stay. I'll drop you a line on PM tonight. I'm thinking the weekend of the 16/17 will be the earliest I can get the paperwork done and get up there. Andy, if you could go and check this out in person for me, that would be awesome! I have to stump the non refundable deposit by the end of the week and it would make me feel much better to have someone who has seen it in person. The dealer is Classy Car Buyers, address 986 N. State St, Orem. The guy I'm dealing with there is Ty Robbins, he'll be back in on Thu. Tell him Allison sent you. The car needs a front wheel alignment and 2 new tires at the moment, they'll be getting that done for me, but it might show up in a test drive. If you could get out there that would rock! Thank you! And yes, it does look like a nice little car for some backroad fun (hee hee). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyYT316 Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Hey Allee! I'll go and check out that car today after work. What kind of car is it anyway? I can't tell whether that's a Suzuki or VW logo on the grill. I'll let you know tonight what I think of the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted October 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 Oh, sorry - Suzuki SX4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyYT316 Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 I went and checked out the car last night but there wasn't anyone there so I couldn't test drive it. I'm going to try to go drive it this morning if there's someone there. It looks good all around, and looks like a great deal. My friend did a car history thing and it looks clean. I just wonder why a new 2007 with 14k miles needs an alignment. But for now I give it a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyYT316 Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Hey Allee! Totally go for the car! It runs really nice and it seems like a fun car to drive. Seems like they fixed the alignment already. I give it :biggthump . Get down here and get your car soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted October 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Andy, thank you so much!! I really appreciate that you took the time out to do that. I owe you a beer or three! That's great news, I have to go off to the bank in an hour to arrange the wire. How exciting!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncermak Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Allee-- You definitely win! Andy is a great Guy, but he doesn't drink! no beer required! (although I'm sure he'd accept a new Prior when you come in form Canada!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted October 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Oh well, it will have to be a pizza or something. The Prior is out unfortunately, Buying this car will mean eating Kraft Dinner for the next four years ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronG Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 WOW, these bomber members really go out of the way for a fellow carver, I am touched that this is such a tight community that people would do that for one another!! On a similar situation, I am looking to buy a Ferrari Enzo, it is located in Park City, the guy only wants 500,000.00. Andyor Tille could you drive up there and take it for a spin?? The guy wants a deposit to do that, just slap it on a credit card and I will square up with you when I get there. Just kidding!! Allee, congrats on the new ride, looks like all time 4wd, you will be flying to the slopes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyYT316 Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 No problem Allee! As Noah said, I don't drink. But pizza or anything is always welcome! Let me know if you get lost in Utah and I'll help you out. Opening weekend for Park City is Nov 16th too. Let me know if you need any other help!
