Sell the accord, keep the civic, and be a college kid with money in the bank. Nothing wrong with that!! Buy a nice car after school is over.
I could probably do that with the Civic. The only problem is during the winter. I'd hate to drive that thing in the snow after just painting it and what not. But I suppose thats why I put a lot of clear on it.Hmmm, how about you sell one car, make the other car into a good reliable daily driver and work on school, when you're done with school go buy something nice.
An Audi would be nice, but again, the maintenance.. I'm not too confident with German cars so that'd be an added expense..Audi all the way....1.8T. AWD,, great gas milage, nice interior, and if you decide later you want to mod, its easy, get an APR Stage 1+ for some added power or turbo swap for even more power...
Thought has crossed my mind, but I'm just not too sure how I'd get around in the winter time. Maybe I should just keep things the way they are.Sell the accord, keep the civic, and be a college kid with money in the bank. Nothing wrong with that!! Buy a nice car after school is over.
Thats not too bad. I've never actually been in a Maxima. I should probably sit in one. From what I hear they are actually very nice. I always thought they were kind of an econo box.02-03 6 speed maxima for sure! not sure what they go for now, but im guessing $10k, maybe less.
i used to have a 03 6 speed with nothing but a cold air intake on it. it was the nicest vehicle ive ever owned. very comfy, very quick, and it got a true 29 mpg on the hwy.
8k might be a little much, but I'll look into them. Hell, I'd even settle for something with some mileage. I'll be keeping this car for quite some time after I get out of school I'm sure.I paid $4k for my 99' with 98k on the clock. The newer 02/03's are starting to go for around $8k in decent shape.
It's not that the Civic isn't worth it, I definitely enjoy driving the car and having the pride in building it myself is definitely a plus too. The big thing with the Civic is that it is nowhere near close to stock, so the Honda reliability is essentially gone. I would like something that I can jump in every day and know that it's going to make it 500+ miles without a single problem. The Civic hasn't been too re-assuring in that respect. But, it has been on the road for 5k+ miles now with no problems in it's defense ^_^Aww sad, Matt is going to sell his car. I completely understand where you're coming from Matt. It sucks always having something to fix or work on. Especially when the car just isn't worth it.
My dad's friend just picked one up for 14k with only 37k on the clock. I think its an 04. I like the car a lot. It's roomy, AWD, and reliable as hell. Definitely have been considering one of these for a while. We will see what happens with the rest of this winter. I think that will be my deciding factor.wrx wagon. those are going for pretty cheap these days.
Impalas are good looking cars. I've never really sat in one though. Is it fairly comfortable?Don't laugh but I love my Chevy Impala. I got it back in July and havn't got a bad thing to say about it. I got a 2008 for 12,xxx and 36,xxx on the clock. I am sure you could find yourself a cheaper one that is a little bit older. If you are looking aroud get the LT with the 3.9 liter in it - easy give away is that it has dual exhaust.
Thats also a possibility.. I have always liked the look of the older Imprezas and if I'm not mistaken the older outback looks virtually the same from the front?Older Outback! I'm a sucker for a late 90's outback, white/gold combo with mesh wheels. They look so awesome, they have sort of an agressive rally stance, because of their height and their spoiler and scoop.
Haha new Taurus twin turbo?? Hello 20-30k!Wrx would be they way to go. If you got something new maybe the new taurus............ Twin turbo?
My Accord is dependable. It just has a lot of miles on it (290,xxx) and it has just about had it. I do have a complete un-assembled F22 sitting in the shop for it. All brand new parts, basically a brand new engine. The thing that is holding me back from putting it in there is the rust on the Accord. The rear quarters (above the wheels) are getting pretty bad. The passenger side I was able to stop but the driver's side is rotting horribly. I con't mind it too much, it's just rather annoying.What's your Accord like? A car like the Accord seems to fit the bill of what you're looking for.
+1 on the Maxima idea also...
