Does anyone know where she is now??
« on: December 17, 2011, 18:18:44 PM »
Hi one and all, long time away. Sold my baby as insurance got too high on a retirement pension :'(. Especially with the modifications I made. If anyone knows, or see her, please ask the owner to contact me as I have some bits and pieces I never got to fit, and if the new owner wants them we might be able to come to some kind of arrangement. the car was traded in for another car :-X. Cheaper insurance ;D. I saw it advertised on PISTONHEAD. Check it out on }}}

DanSE4, What makes you think yours is any better? I looked up your profile and noticed your only a pup. As you get older you might learn some respect. But I doubt it. MATE.
Le probl?me avec vous est l'utilisation du COPAIN de mot. Je ne suis pas votre Copain et je ne fais pas depuis un moment vous supposent la voiture est chaque choix de . La bont? de remerciement que je suis deux fois vous vieillit et s'est d?velopp?e pour respecter des choix de gens. Je n'insulterais jamais quelqu'un la fa?on que vous faites. Un jour et cela peut ?tre bient?t, vous la voiture sera dans un cimeti?re de voitures ou plus mauvaise. Peut-?tre quelqu'un r?primandera que vous avez fait ? votre voiture. Donc je sugg?re que vous gardez vos remarques stupides ? vous.

Well, I'm getting on a bit and I agree with their comments - if less bluntly expressed. However, each to their own and if you liked it, and the person who bought it liked it, that's sweet - it'sc ertainly a lot better looking than some of the monstrosities people produce.
Making semi-literate use of the Froggie language to try and score some points for your bruised ego is for LOSERS - now, if you'd used latin or classic greek, then I'd be impressed.

Haha, I agree, since it's been near to 40 years since I took it at school, and I could understand little more than half, I had to use babblefish to translate - very funny.

I assume the use of "mate" by y'all is in the sense of a friend, or not friends, rather than you'd like to mate with each other - or not?

to be fair with silvergriffin though. pepoles oppinions on here are blunt as hell ha.

he obviously liked it thats why he modified it like that for himself not for others, pepole could of just said not my cuppa tea or something or not what I'd of chose...... No need for hope its in a scrap yard like. You saying you'd put a perfectly good calibra to scrap cause you didn't like the bumper and lexus lights???

Personally, I'm not a great fan of the 'ferrari' style side panels, or the protruding front 'bib', but as far as can be told from the pictures, the work appears to have been done fairly well and some people would like the two-tone interior.  I certainly don't think it was "one bloody awful Calibra" - that's a bit harsh...

Yeah, bit harsh Dan. It's not my cup o tea but the guy was asking about the cars whereabouts, not for opinions on its styling.
