Indeed. Two vehicles ago I put myself under a 6 year loan for a new car. My previous and current vehicles have been used and I straight up paid for them up front. As long as you're careful you can get most of the 'new car' feeling if you have the means to save up for a while beforehand and go with something used.BoringSupreez wrote:Now that sounds nice.

Re: What car do you drive?
Just bought my first new car a couple of days ago! Since the company I work for is moving buildings around December (double my driving distance!), I figured now is a good time to replace my aging (not-so-fun) Ford Escort. Great to drive and gets 40mpg - awesome

Parked next to my wife's nearly paid-off Cadi - she was kind enough to throw me on the plate

Three digit readings - haven't seen that in a while.

Re: What car do you drive?
All these cars... uggh, I get cramped up pretty easy in my legs, cars are rough on me. Some are better than others, I honestly don't know how you Europeans do it...
I'm a Texas boy though.
'78 F150 Super Cab, with a 472. Currently just painted primer grey and primer black. Dual exhaust, and I'm working on getting some glass packs for it. (Thinking Orange Peelers, but might go with Purple Hornies.) Bought it off of my Dad, it was a case of love at first sight. I only get 10 MPG, but looking this cool has its disadvantages.

I'm 6' 1" and with my seat all the way back I actually have to stretch a little but to fully press the pedals. Don't know if I could ever go back to a small car now though.
And I definitely couldn't do ryan's miata.

I got my Enthuza NB Speeder (custom Borla exhaust) last night and will be installing it today. Think I might upload a video.

Re: What car do you drive?
My first car was a 1993 Honda Civic DX. It was a darker shade of blue, didn't go past 50 mph (I avoided highways and took back streets) and stalled unless the lights were turned on. It had 178k miles on it.
My second car was a 2001 Honda Accord EXL V6. I paid $2000 about 3 years ago and although it has cosmetic damage and a tiny bit of a misaligned front axle, it was a great car. The V6 kicked ass, everything worked perfectly but the 6 cd changer and it had AC and power doors and windows. First leather car too. I gave this car to my mother so she enjoys it for the smooth ride. 127k miles.
My new car, which is the first car I ever purchased new is a 2012 Honda Accord EXL V6 Coupe. I love this thing to pieces.

Re: What car do you drive?
i drive an 06 escape for work, also have 04 escape and a van that my wife drives. wanted some sort of 5 speed that was cheap and maybe throw a few mods on to drive around on weekends or something. always liked the looks of the eclipse. dumbass on the left that sold it to me wired up the hid headlights/fogs all shitty which may cost me replacing that but all and all is pretty clean inside and out.
