'86 Civic DX hatch $300
'91 Civic DX sedan $600
'01 Mercury Sable $10,000
'92 Dodge Stealth $4,500 (Sold last car to brother cause I wanted a 'Tuner car')
'91 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 $2,000 (had to rebuild drivetrain)
'93 Dodge Stealth R/T Non-Turbo $500 (had to rebuild drivetrain on this too)
'08 Scion xB $15,995
'04 Nissan 350Z Touring $17,000
Daddy didn't front me any cash in any of this, though he did co-sign on the loan for the Sable as I was 19 at the time.

yea .. these kids these days .. think they can just go out and buy whatever car they want
you really gotta go through some cars first .. no way a 17 year old could have a 350z
1) 06 pontiac aztec (dads car during permit / not mine)
2) 1955 ford f100 (never drove it but restored it most the way)
3) 96 taurus (first car .. wooo)
4) 1994 mini cooper (imported .. old style)
5) 93 taurus
6) 85 f350 dually
7) 94 f350 diesel
8) 81 f100 (mind condition)
9) 89 supercharged mr2 (almost done fully restoring it)
10) 91 turbo mr2
11) 91 z28 camaro convertible (almost done fully restoring it)
18) 07 350z w/ 3000 miles
im missing alot of cars out of that list b/c I cant remember .. but thats most of them .. still have 9 through 11 too (possibly for sale)

Yes, you. I want your parents to see your shenanigans and the way you treat kids who are pampered and spoiled. Shame on you. Shame, shame.
*sarcasm*
I'm just praying they take his computer privileges. That way he can't run to My350.com and tell us fanciful tales and so he can't fap to anything and he gets outrageously bad blue *****, that way he knows what it's like to be an adult.

This culminated in the acquisition of a 2001 Mercury Sable for me lol, not quite a 350z. :-P I got there eventually though.

I'm proud to say that I'm 18 and have worked hard the last two years to pay for my z and finally payed the final payment last month, now I'm just waiting for the title to be transferred from my dad's name into mine. I can definitely say that I appreciate the vehicle a lot more paying for it myself than I would have if my parents would have bought it for me. I'm just glad now that my money can go into modding it and I look forward to going through the process of building it myself instead of buying a car that was built by someone else.
