If I realized that I would get a response, I would have left it on originally. Okay, here it is. All feedback will be appreciated. Keep in mind, this dream occurred at the end of last year. Since I recall it so vividly a year later, I figured there must be some meaning.
I recall being at an automotive shop, to have my current vehicle maintenance. While in the shop, I noticed a red (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamthemes/colors.htm) sports car on a rack, and instantly realized that the vehicle belonged to me. I had no feeling of exuberance about knowing this, but it was a matter of fact. I spoke to a mechanic about the vehicle who reminded me the work needed and the cost. The amount of money (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/m3.htm) it would take, was miniscule, but I did not have that amount available at the time.
Shortly afterwards, a female mechanic approached me about the sports car. I remember her having manly features, and her telling me that the other mechanic was wrong in his assessment. She reminded me that the car was in for a routine maintenance and would cost less to be fixed than quoted. I felt consoled by her assessment and directness with me, but I still had to assess whether to get the car fixed. She suggested that I take the car to another shop, where she did mechanics work on the side. I felt comfortable in her self-confidence.
I started to look at the car's interior. It a convertible, similar to the old Porches, with beige (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamthemes/colors.htm) interior but did not have air condition. I remember not having concern for the lack of air because it was a cool part of the season (maybe early fall or spring) and found no immediate need for air. The car had creature comforts that I was okay with. There was an original factory radio, but not cassette or cd and manual mirrors and windows. I briefly began to analyze my options. However, when I turned around to tell the mechanics that I wanted the red sports car fixed, I noticed that they were taking it off the rack and pushing it behind a tall chain linked fence (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/f.htm). It appeared to be impounded.
I went to a mechanic to inform them of my decision to take the car with me. When I went to get the car, it was gone. I was told that it had been taken to another area of the shop and I would have to take an elevator (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/e.htm) to another level, where it was being stored. I got on the elevator to descend to the location of the car, and but noticed as the elevator closed, there was no interior light. I began to panic and quickly tried to open the elevator doors, but it was too late. The elevator began to descend and I was petrified (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamthemes/feelings.htm) in the dark (http://websearch.cs.com/cs/boomframe.jsp?query=dream+dictionary&page=1&offset=1&result_url=redir%3Fsrc%3Dwebsearch%26requestId%3Db07f72af5ad6639a%26clickedItemRank%3D3%26userQuery%3Ddream%2Bdictionary%26clickedItemURN%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.sleeps.com%252Fdictionary%252Fdictionary.html%26invocationType%3D-%26fromPage%3Dmainmenu81%26amp%3BampTest%3D1&remove_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sleeps.com%2Fdictionary%2Fdictionary.html).
When the elevator doors did open, I quickly got off and begin to search for my little red sports car, but could not find it. I became panicky for a moment, and finally someone informed me that it was over in a corner. I went over to the area, found it and felt comfort in seeing it. I told them that I wanted to take the car with me. I went back to the elevator to return to the upper floor and felt overwhelmed with fear of having to ride in the dark elevator again. Another guy also got on the elevator with me, and began to push a button to close the door. I panicked and told him that it would be dark, but in the process of warning him, the lights in the elevator came on. I felt a sense of comfort in the lights being on and having someone ride up with me.
I drove the car (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/c.htm) off, feeling wholesome with the wind on my face and the top down. As I neared the shop location, I noticed it was a dilapidated barn (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/b.htm). I could not find anyone in the shop, so I left to return home. Upon getting there, I noticed that my computer (http://www.dreammoods.com/dreamdictionary/c3.htm) was beeping with an email. I read the email, which was from the previous shop. They informed me that they would fix the car for even a lower price.
