new car

zhd1000 · 05-21-2003, 11:03 AM

as many of you now know my car burnt up last friday and now i'm looking for another GT.. i was thinking about what i should do with the money left over from the insurance company and here's my choices

1. kit a body kit (*** front and rear, SC/T rockers and spoiler) and SD hood

or

2. buy lots of go mods (i already have the SLP exhaust on the way)

i'm going to have the money for the kit soon so i thought do the kit because i probably wont be able to save up that kinda money again since i'm going away to college next year.. but i can come up with money for parts when i'm in college... so what do you think i should??

for those who didn't see here's my 99 GAGT

yeah but how much would a SC plus intall be?

AMRAAM4 · 05-21-2003, 12:26 PM

1SeXyGA · 05-21-2003, 12:56 PM

what happened to your car?!?!!

mfuller · 05-21-2003, 01:08 PM

Hmm....I think I may have heard about this on the news a few nights ago.....was the car just off Bell School Road?

Anyway, I'd get the new ride and put any extra towards school.....education is the best investment.

I want to know what the heck happened to it?! Fridays are evil. That's when I got rearended.. I would just stick with using the money for educational stuff.

Spend it on education, then when you get near the age of 25 you can get the big boy toys, well whatevers left come then. But education is the best investment!

Ya thats for sure. I cant say I didnt think the same when i bought mine.

Not too many other cars out there that are better than a civic.. have SOME speed... and some nice looks... for 200-250 a month.

Well, Im gonna be 23 in november, so my father made a deal with me since Ive been displeased with my GA(which I paid in full). He said if I can find a Camero SS that is worth enough to buy (mint basically), he'd go halves with me on it. So I've been looking

2002GT · 05-22-2003, 08:44 AM

right on my nugga!

WTF are you talking about??

Why don't you take your DSM garbage to the DSM boards. Personally, you are beginning to be another ackbar. When will you realize Talon/Eclipse are junk? There is a reason they stopped making them that way. The best return on investment I have ever heard is to sell a 99 GAGT in good condition in order to drive a POS 95 Talon that is no longer made....

And FYI..who paid $5k to run a 14.9?
