I bought this 2006 Kia Rio 5 SX with 42,000 miles for only $4500.

The owner, a friend of my GF's, wanted $6000 for it and I jokingly said that I would give him $4500 for it.

I didn't know he had been trying to privately sell it since December and he accepted my offer.





$4500 and it has a 10 year / 100,000 warranty. DAMN!

My GF gave her mom her 2006 Chevy Malibu Maxx (gas guzzler) and will be driving this Rio 5.

AND she has given me the green light to MOD it out.

...goes to look for the biggest tires I can put on it.

OH, and this was my 1000th post.
