cars

I actually jus got my license like three weeks ago, and my parents bought me a car. They got a me 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee. My mom wanted to get me a smaller car but since I always have hockey or my surfboard I convinced her to get me a jeep. It was only $4600 with 83,000 miles. Any mods I have to pay for, so I put in a cd player.

thats funny... a year ago, the V was all you could talk about.  and now, a Maz... get real.  and how old are you...

ohhh, dont get me wrong, I love my V. But there are just some things I dont love. I have had countless problems with the rear diff, and wheel hop problems. The dealers have been great, but its just so inconvient. I also want a more luxurious car, and something with a little more sex appeal. Plus come on, Ferrari Engine :)

Yeah, because those engines are known for their reliability.

look man, no offense, but at 18 having mommy and daddy pay for that kind of stuff... so you can have sex appeal. i guess i just disagree with your parents approach. when you have worked and purchased that kind of stuff with your own money, then we can talk.

and thats not just directed towards your situation. i see too many kids taking advantage with what is given to them... and don't understand the value of money.

but hey, i never had it all that rough, but i still had to earn what my parents did for me.

He'll find that out when he needs a 30k mile maintenance on a 4 year old car that's out of warranty. Then again, he probably won't care.

My uncle, who has more money than some banks, got his son a car for his 16th birthday. I wish I could've seen my cousins face when he opened the garage to see a VW Passat. And not that a Passat is a bad car, but with my uncle being able to afford quite a bit more than that and him being a car fanatic himself.... I'm sure my cousin was expecting a little more.

you'll be able to find something decent for 4 grand, consider yourself lucky for getting all of that from your parents.

i'm looking at buying a 1989-1990 honda prelude or CRX. even though i'll only have my L, i may buy one this summer or just wait until a year from now. but i'm stoked on it. i already have 1500 in stocks and will earn around 2 grand in the next two months if i'm lucky. my budget right now is around 3000 CDN.. honda's are reliable as f*ck though and even their older models don't look out of date. good on gas too.

prelude

crx

I want another CRX.

Kristin says they're ugly and that she wouldn't let me get one.

So much fun to drive...

so i've heard. nice little pocket rocket.

the prelude is supposed to be a blast as well.

i can't wait.

who ever said mommy and daddy paid the entire bill? And yes I know about maitinence and reliability issues with Maserati cars. I will not buy the car without an extended Warranty. I have looked into Maseratis warentty program, and it is surprisingly pretty good. Most of the cars I have looked into do come with a lengthy warranty.

thats the corsa

1.2 is the engine size. truswt me the car doesnt look anything like that now

Defender

[Kovy_Ribs_Fedo 3]

wow, I would have liked to get a defender.

My father let me use his Lumina 96, I'm happy he let it to me so I can go where I want and such.

[kmatt333 0]

'85 Cutlass Calais (in late '96). It was turd brown, which is fitting since it was a true POS.

Also, if your parents are giving you ANY money for a car, you should probably kiss their asses at every opportunity. ;)

I had a CRX , It was a awsome little car , great on gas , fast as shit , Sunroof. They stopped making them but are in the works to start making them again !

Honda is the way to go if you want a great car for a decent price, If you can get the crx for a good price , get it !
