i'm new and 17, got my 1994 se from a dealership who got it from an elderly pilot. 65,000 miles, looks like it has a new alternator (the sticker looks new) and it'* hard to believe the interior is a 1994 it'* spotless.
i've already been HIT twice. the day after i got it a friend and i were on our way home from the ramp park an hour from our house, guy infront of me signals a right hand turn, i slow from 45 because he'* slowing down to turn. The guy behind me doesn't slow down and rear ends me. i pull over but the guy jets and im not familiar with the area at all so we call the cops. good news is, his liscense plate fell off and all it did was mess up my bumpers finish and some sort of absorbers between the frame and bumper. guys car got impounded and he still hasn't shown up.
month after that, same friends ditzy sister backs out in her f-150 as im pulling into their garage to load our bikes up because it'* raining. he tells her to wait til i get in to back out but she goes anyway and im holding the horn down they're jumping around like idiots waving there arms and she still backs into me and caves in my back driver side door. if i pulled up i would have gotten hit further back. pulled back i would have gotten hit further forward it was un avoidable. she hit 6 things in 3 months it was pathetic. so it'* all fixed now and going strong though.
