sorry to hear, I'm in Hawaii Which Island? Oahu? Honolulu is the biggest city, a friend of mine here has a 98 CW one and another has a 01 PY.

There is another PY that parks on the top of a parking structure near my condo and I can see it from my unit.

Good luck to you.

i wish i could say yes. rebuilt motor and the price was ok. 1900 bucks to get it there. i was just looking at the pics as they loaded it up. the biggest reason i am sad is that i HAD to sell because i lost my job. the car is fun to drive. she will be missed fro sure.

There won't be snow, but you might have to rethink the salt part...

Sorry to hear. I feel your pain. I had a dry spell in work last fall, combined with tuition costs I sold mine. I deeply regret it at times and it can be quite depressing. The silver lining is that I'm almost out of school and you will find another job (I hope it comes soon.) It's better to have loved and lost etc right? You'l get another one, mine will be my first purchase after school.

I remember counting around 7-8 R's on the Big Island at one time.

But damn, shipping from PA to HI is going to cost a lot. L.A. to HI is just over a $1000, probably more now.

Dang! And I never even got to see it! Hope the new owner will take good care of it. Any plans for buying another later on in life?

Once you get back on your feet there are plenty for sale. Plus now you can test drive other cars and see how they compare before you were to get another ITR.
