Mine looks just like midnight. I bought it brand new in 08 I was 18, it has 130k on it now and watching this video hurts Gerb, idk if I'll ever let mine go. Thank you Midnight for all the lessons you taught us and thank you Gerb for sharing your time with her with us 😢

RIP to Midnight. You were one of the very first KZbinrs that inspired me and helped me when I owned my FG2. Ironically enough I sold my Si for a FK8 Type R and I sometimes really miss the 8th gen so I get how you felt when the car was totaled/gone now. Hopefully you get this next FG2 running soon so it can inspire me again to buy one of my favorite cars I’ve ever owned. It’s been one hell of a journey, looking forward on what’s next to come!

It’s a shitty feeling brother, onto bigger and better things of course! Keep grinding bro, you’ll never forget this car, but you’ll find something to make you just as happy, trust. Not even gonna lie, cried the first night I sold my first cars, I had two first cars, inherited, 94 F150 4.9 Inline 6, 80k miles, and an 89 Mustang GT 5spd, 90k miles, around 17 I went on vacation, came back to them sold from under me (my mother and I had a very bad relationship at the time) .. yeah I cried dawg 🤣 I still think about those cars, Everytime I see one of them, I think about them. Shit sucks, I’ll never get over it lol one day maybe, I’ll have another mustang.

Ik how you feel. I owned an 8th gen for like 7 years and had to let it go. Thankfully got a 10th gen Si and I gotta say it feels like I’m in my old 8th gen, but with some new bells and whistles and a turbo slapped on to it. Will never forget, my 1st car since I got outta high school. Miss it to this day 😢

I sold my 8th gen to carmax that it was in mint condition paint was perfect only problem was the fan ran long and killed the battery but I had a new vehicle already purchased. I will always regret getting rid of my 8th gen I will never find another in great body and paint condition for what I paid only $3,000 for it.
