Goodbye to legend :( - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

jacob666 · 04-28-2008, 10:50 AM

Some of you may be familiar with this car, most of you may not be. This was my first car, 1990 Buick Century Custom.

*yes i did change it to say "Century Turbo", sad thing is many believed it to be a century turbo, including a Marine Recruiter*

Yesterday officially it is demoted to just another buick century and no longer in my care. Spoiler is gone, stripes, seat covers, hub caps, CF trim, intake, exhaust, everything.

Now most of you will probably get disgusted by it, but it was legendary around here. I've never seen another even close to it, and it was special and unique. The only riced out car around here to actually have colors matching (silver spoiler, stripes, skirt, etc) It was known in probably a 100 mile radius. even drag strip workers, city officials, and even Judge Harris knew it.

Flame if you like but this isn't about "LoOk Yo My WhIp iZ FlY" or anything. I didn't seek fame, try to look the fastest, and never raced it. this is just a memorial to my actual "Grandma's buick" as implied in Tokyo Drift lol

Have a nice day and farewell Century!

not gonna lie i usually laught my ass off as cars like this pass by, but i understand that it was important to you, and while i dont understand why you would do that to a century, its cool to know that cars can be so sentimental to people. on that note

RIP

How much did you get for it? I will be very disappointed if you accepted anything less than two 24 packs of Coors.
