Good deal, too bad American cars are built to break down whereas Japanese cars don't die.

it has 138000 miles right now. and actually the car was made by mazda. it was mostly mazda parts including the engine and tranny. which is why it dosent suck.

you can post pics of your car or what your parents drive. bikes, and ect are also welcome.

Ive had a history of cars. three to be exact.

my first car i bought when i was 16 and it was a 1999 ford mustang GT 5 speed manual. I BOUGHT IF FOR 5000. it was stock never did anything to it. dont really have a pic of it anymore. but i wrecked it on the highway from a tire blowout at high speeds causing me to hit the median.

my second car was a 1998 audi a4 2.8 quattro with a 5 speed manual.. I BOUGHT IT FOR 5000 i had it dyno tuned, cold air intake, flowmaster exhaust. it was doing 210 HP. i wrecked it one day while it was raining, i had hydroplaned on the highway and hit a tree.
Here is a video of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EctAuZpHe2o


My third car is a 1993 ford probe gt with a 2.5 v6 engine and a 5 speed manual.. I BOUGHT IT FOR 1000, it needed alittle engine work. it has cold air intake, magnaflow headers, magnaflow exhaust, short throw shifter, stage 2 clutch because im turboing it soon. its currently doing 190 HP which isnt much but it only ways 2700 pounds do its light as fuck for the power.
here is a video of the exhaust. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IRl1Xhy1js

but a desk top isnt portable. thats why laptops kick ass.

Could have gotten quite a lot better for the money but that still isn't bad.
Please do tell???

Because I'm quite interested.
You could build something quite a lot better then that for the money.
As for laptops I can't be bothered looking, but I'm positive you could find one a lot cheaper.

this is also my laptop for college, so its completely portable. it only ways 5 pounds too :)

I have no idea how good that is, but the processor looks good... I think.
But welcome back, how did it go with the car?

apparently the shop i took it too just moments b4 the crash accidentally leaked some sort of chemicals on one of the back tires, causing it to slip. i should have a new one in december. im getting either the same one of a 1998 BMW 328is

What about insurance?
Surely that would pay for you if not to get a new one to get some thing almost as good.

i paid 225 a month for liability and comprehensive coverage. i cant afford full coverage. so i dont get anything. my insurance drained my bank account.
