<p><font face="Arial">List:</font>
</p>
<p><font face="Arial">It is with mixed emotions that I announce my purchase today of my first non-SR20DE car since 1991. After much deliberation, I bought a 2007 MazdaSpeed3, and I am very psyched about it. However, that also means that I must now sell my 1993 SE-R.
</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">I have driven an SE-R my entire professional life - almost 16 years. I bought my original black SE-R in March 1991 during my last year in law school. It was my daily driver and best friend until I wrecked it in August 2003. I then bought my current daily driver, a cherry 1993 SE-R. It has been just as fun as the first SE-R, maybe more so. I really drove this second one the way it was intended, and I actually placed second this season in STS in my local autocross group. What a blast to throw into a turn!
</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">But the nagging problems of an aging car are starting to become too much to tolerate on my 50-60 miles per day commute. I still LOVE to get into it every single day to drive to work. But it was just time, ya know? Anyway, I will list it on the forums soon.
</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">I can't wait to pick up the Speed3 tomorrow to drive it for the first time as mine, but I hope to stay in touch always with the SE-R community. Thank you all for everything you have given to me (and so many others) since I joined this list in 1996 - over ten years of helpful, knowledgeable, and often very entertaining guidance.
