Thread: Anybody from near BC in Canada need a NX parts car?

its too bad, i could have used it for chump oh wells ..

sad to see it go

I "should" have let it go 5 years ago when the Transmission, and then 3 months later the engine gave out. $4000 spent! So, I'm not one to give up easily. But again $4k for a reliable car for 5 years is good money spent.

But - and this is funny - I said I'd be in a better financial position 5 years from then and hoped it'd last for that long. And it's almost to the day 5 years (I remember because it was a couple of weeks before Halloween...)

I do wish it waited just 1 more year, but it did buy me time to save for another car. As the poet Jagger said "you can't always get what you want."

I'm now 49 and I bought it when I was 27. An amazing chunk of my life was spent with that car. My 12 year old daughter teared up when I took that cell phone shot of it being hauled away. And my wife, who isn't a car person by any stretch, touched its roof and said "goodbye old girl" which surprised me.

No, this wasn't just a hunk of metal that took me from A to B, that's for sure. I'm sad, but like you said happy that the parts or some of them will live on in other NXs.

the fact that its a white hardtop and i haven't owned it since its been on canadian soil is saddening to me :P

Oh wow I can't believe that hardtop is in a junk yard now. I just recently saw another hardtop on Vancouver, B.C craigslist. It was a white 1991 NX2K hardtop with 95k kms on it. Looked like an amazing buy. Unfortunately it was thousands of miles away from me.

I've had my NX1600 - now SR powered - since December 31, 1992. My kids have grown up with this car, learned to drive in it, race it, and have tried to buy it from me. I can appreciate the sentiment - and if I wasn't in Ontario I'd have come to get it. That is, unless NXpartsource beat me there! Good luck with your next car!

My buddy went out to have a look at that car.

^^^Oh yeah. How was it?

The car had some rust and the rare blue interior. We passed on it..... I don't have room for another nx atm.

Oh ok. Yeah I thought rust might be an issue on a Canadian car.

That's not always true. Lots of rust free ones up here.
