Well kids, it's been a long while since I've been on here. After college I moved to Atlanta, as most of the old regs know. I'm finally selling the ole Kouki and looking for a good home.
Car is currently in the Brentwood/Franklin area of Nashville. I'm in Atlanta and will have to drive up to show it off, etc. so serious inquiries only.

I'm the 2nd owner of the car and have owned it for 7 years. Most of the miles are highway from Nashville - Knoxville for school. After I moved to Atlanta, they were highway 30 miles/day to to/from work. Never been drifted, never been interested. Many people on this site can vouch for the car over the years. On to the info:

GLWS bud. It would actually be sad for you to sell this. I can't imagine Richard without his S14.

Windshield is still cracked.
Window was replaced 2 days after being broken back in 2011.

Car's Title is completely CLEAN even thought car was totaled by insurance.

I was actually getting on today because I had realized I didn't make that clear

They didn't give the car a salvage title when it was totalled? Thats pretty much standard operating procedure. Then from there you can repair the car and get a rebuilt title. Regardless, fair price for a good looking car...is this the same one that went through a few owners on this forum?

Yeah man, I moved for a new job. Been super busy these last couple of years and had to take a hiatus from the car scene. I've tried to jump in here to lurk every once in awhile.

Insurance kept the title completely clear, I was surprised when they told me too lol.
As far as owners, I'm the 2nd. Car was traded into a Nissan dealership by a middle-aged woman in Germantown, OH. I bought it from there my senior yr of HS and had it shipped to Nashville. It's been in my hands only since.

okay, I've worked in the rebuilding of salvage title cars (totaled cars) for 6 years and from my experience of close to a thousand cars, "totaled" and "salvage title" go hand in hand in TN. It's synonymous. If I'm wrong, please direct me to some kind of source to enlighten me.

Insurance told me that it was "totaled" and still had a CLEAR title. Sure enough it did. When I went to register in GA it came up as a clear title as well
