Default Picking up my New car tommorow Morning!

So last week my 89 hatch bit the dust on me. The timing belt went and in turn the cylinder heads were damaged. I sold it off for $400 to guy for a project car. Now tommorow morning Im going to pick up my Black 99 SI! I got it for $6500 with 140k on it. The only problem is Iv never driven a stick haha. Just thought Id let you guys know! I have Pics fo ym old hatch uploaded and will have pics of the SI uploaded in a few days.

sweet find

SIs are always fun to drive and its a learning experience with the stick. it will take a little while to catch on but itll be worth it in the end. it makes driving a car a lot more fun.
