Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

I think you got what you paid for, that's all -- there's probably more wrong with it. But hey, it'll get you from A to B.

There's a complete difference between the way you said something, and the way Rubix did.

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

Oni: Depends on what you're after -- personally, at this age, I wouldn't mind having a ****ty car as long as it had decent MPG (otherwise a ****ty car is actually more expensive) -- sometimes the additional investment is worth the long haul. I'm not going to worry about car aesthetics until I have more than enough to cover all the expenses.

But I mean, there's nothing wrong with buying that car as long as it does what it's supposed to, really, but I think for $1600 you could have gotten something better -- especially if you're needing cardboard to keep a window up O.O

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

I owned an Infinity G20 a while back as well. The parts are rather expensive, the engine is easy to work on as far as top end work goes, but if any internal breaks, go buy another car, its not worth it. Mine had an automatic transmission that clunked when it shifted from first to second. Later on in it's short short life, piston ring blew, which is known to happen easily on these cars, and I had to say bye bye to her.

Cars I've owned?:

1992 Ford Taurus
1999 Mercury Cougar
1994 Infinity G20
1989 Chevy Blazer
1994 Volkswagon Jetta
1987 Jeep Wagoneer
1993 Toyota Celica
1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT
1987 Ford Festiva
1993 Geo Metro
1995 Ford Aspire
2007 Dodge Caliber

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

Oh me next, cars I've owned:

1986 Olds Cutlass Cierra Stationwagon (it got the ladies)
1971 Olds 4-4-2 W-30 (it actually got the ladies)
1991 Audi 90 (I loved this car dearly and my sister wrecked it)
2005 Ford Focus Zsomething (love this car but it'll never top the 4-4-2, in fact nothing I own ever again will unless it's a better 4-4-2)


lolo ds had a wagoneer those were the ****. Was it one of the ones that got like 8 mpg?

I mean look at this beast

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

I own a 2002 VW Jetta, GLS 1.8 Turbo, and I love my car.
Volkswagens are by far the best type of car that I've ever driven.
I'm crappy with keeping the maintenance on it sometimes :/ so the fact that it's survived this long, is amazing.

As for your new baby, sometimes, what other people see as junk, turns out to occasionally be fantastic.
Old cars were made more sturdy then these flashy pieces most people are driving now.
Good luck

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

I've owned a 91 Buick LaCrosse, or some ****
car was in such ****ty condition under the hood, and it smelled bad

Second car was a 96 Toyota Corolla, very nice and dependable car, wouldda lasted through college, till it got "totaled". It was PARKED on the curb in front of my house, and my idiot neighbor hit it head on and cracked the axel. Folks at the shop said it might as well be totaled... and the check for the damage was $600 more than what I paid for it :P.

With the $3600, plus 800 I was willing to spend, I got this:

02 Civic, bought it like that. ****ing love it.

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

yeah but with all the broken **** on it (and the **** you probably don't even know about) i'm going to say you still got ripped off.

and i'm not jealous in the least. i have a 94 honda accord with 175K miles on it that runs like a champion and gets 30 MPG. couldn't be happier to be quite honest.

Wrong, this thing runs like a beast, 26 MPG.
Your car is also like 15 years old, don't be a hypocrite.
And even if something goes wrong with it, my dad owns the Yellow Cab in town, so free mechanic all day.

Re: Introducing: My New Baby.

plus yours is all broken and whatever

so mine is better peace

Fock yes it was, it was the most gutless V8 in history.

Pretty much all my cars are gas savers now, except the 3000gt, which is just my toy, and unfortunately gets between 3 and 12 mpg, depending on how hard you drive it xD
