The Eclipse is paid off correct?
Keep the Eclipse and save your money. College was some poor *** time for me. Part time job at retail is horrible.

All offensive statements/racial slurs are "just an expression". Way to go genius.

Now for some hard evidence: Let us look up the word Jew in the dictionary, shall we?

Noun.
A member of the people and cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who trace their origins through the ancient Hebrew people of Israel to Abraham.

PHRASES:
"jew someone down" (OFFENSIVE) bargain with someone in a miserly or petty way.
That is VERBATIM what appears in my dictionary, yes even the "(offensive)" part. Congratulations even the dictionary labels you as offensive. Bottom line you need to be more careful saying ignorant slurs like that. You have officially been noted as ignorant in my book. Judging by your blatant disrespect for other people's cultures I think it's pretty obvious maturity is a quality you seem to lack. Good luck in life with that attitude.

I don't need your respect or anything. I am very mature i think and i am always told. I appologized for the offensive slang if it offended anyone so stop trying to act like your great by telling me how mean and ignorant i am. Thats settled.

Back to the OP, yes my eclipse is paid off for and at this point my mind is made up. I have extra money because of scholarships i received and grants and somewhat of parental help and due to my very good job.

Now im just trying to figure out if i should get an 03 or spend the extra money for an 04.

Stating that you are mature does NOT make it so. You are far from it. Once again, IT IS NOT SLANG. You've probably had anti-semitism (along with a bunch of other bigoted examples) around you your whole life. That's why you don't see anything wrong with the slur.

If you had any jewish friends (which I highly doubt) would you use the "jew them down" statement in front of them?

Actually i grew up in a school with a town with many different races.I have a couple black friends that we would make fake racist jokes at each other all the time because i grew up with them and we were close. Also yes i knew a jewish person who was very very funny and outgoing and although he was just as white as me i would make a few jewish jokes and he would call me a honkie. Not to say that it is right to say that on the internet and one again i apologized but yes I do have friends like that, close close friends like that but that's the type of town i grew up in it's not being bigoted to any race or anti-semitic to the jewish people. So as much as people love to do on the internet and guess what type of person they are in real-life im sorry to say you are wrong. I was in the wrong because sure i could have offended someone but i apologize for that. I even have an ASIAN friend a few years younger than me named Andy Vu that is a gymnast and run up walls and do flips and back flip off 10 foot tall structures. I always say "DAMMIT ANDY VU QUIT BEIN ASIAN" and he just laughs all the time. At least in the town i grew up in becuase we had so many different cultures, not to say that there aren't towns more diverse but one of the best ways most people seemed to cope with it is make fake racist jokes with their friends a little bit and if neither get offended by it it shows the trust. Now i don't say these all the time at all but i was just making the point that in my life in my HS years yes there were plenty of times where i have made and have had fake racist jokes made at me because it's funny and shows that there is no barrier and we are just friends.
