I miss my G20

[David Pertuz]

I replaced my G20t with the Beige Transportation Appliance (BTA) in 2011
because I had decided I wanted to get something with under 100k again that
required less maintenance due to stuff wearing out, and my grandfather's
insanely low-mileage and well-maintained 2004 Accord became available and
it was So Not Me but too good to say no to for the price (I bought it for
my budget rather than what it was worth) so I bought it and sold the G20 to
a friend, who drove it for many of his grad-school years until it became
too high-maintenance for him at 230k+ miles and it was scrapped under that
California scheme. He is not a car person, but he really enjoyed driving
it. In 2014 I went on a 3-week road trip in the west with the BTA and hated
the damn automatic and lack of practicality and have been scheming ever
since to replace it with something that is more fun/interesting and has a
clutch pedal and, ideally, has a liftgate. Or, if it's a nice W124 wagon,
no clutch pedal is fine.

In that vein, I saw this very nice-looking P10 G20t on Portland CL today:

And this made me think, "I miss my G20." and "why don't I sell the BTA and
just get another G20t and I will still not have a hatchback/wagon but it
will at least be more fun, have a stick and I know how to maintain it."
Nice P10 ts are impossible to find. I don't know what the mileage on this
one is (I wrote the seller to ask some questions) but it seemed worth
sharing.
