MY CAR
For those of you that remember my civic....It now looks like this:
http://www.pbase.com/image/15827417
But it used to look like this:
http://www.pbase.com/image/15115929 .
I was thinking about selling it, because of all the 2k1 problems I was having with the car. I sold everything that I had put on the car, and was going to sell it as soon as the weather became warm. I then decided to keep it and drive it stock until I finish paying it off. Now im back to what I wanted to do in the first place, but not for the reasons that I had before.
I still dont want a car payment which I have now, and I also do not want a stick shift, which I have now. I was thinking about getting a bigger car, preferrably a 4 door that I would be able to buy in cash and not have a payment, even if it isnt a honda. I know I will get flamed for this, but I would consider buying a KIA or a Huyndai....They have excellent warranties, and they are cheap. I am not going to mod the car....I will just put my system in it and drive....Im done with the modding...for now.
I dont know why I am posting this, maybe because I cant make up my mind on what to do. Maybe you guys can give me some advice.
Thanks in Advance.
