Heh...I could buy FIFTEEN cars for the price of either one of those
Sorry Skoo...I guess I can't be of much help on this one...I have no idea how to waste money:p
And you call yourself a fan of horror:rolleyes:

*Sigh*...I almost had one JUST like the one in Phantasm...For only $1500!...But, it was outta state, the guy didn't think I'd actually come and get it (that was his EXCUSE, but the TRUTH was, he found out he could get $7,000 for it...ASS), and he sold it right out from under me the very day I was gonna pick it up...Actually made me more sad than mad...It was a damned sweet hearse...

Heh...Yeah...AND, we had all discussed it beforehand...It was big enough for the whole family AND for band equipment (Dustin was really looking forward to it, too)...It had double doors in the back, and we were gonna use the rollout thingy in the back for when we went to the drive-in.....Seri was just as dissappointed as I was when the deal fell through, cuz I had told her that I would give it to her and Shane as a wedding present when they got married next year...Anyway...
The guy who was selling it, inherited it from his brother who died, so he had NO idea what it's real value was, that was why he was selling it so cheap...Apparenty, someone clued him in....That's just my luck...
Don't think I'm ever gonna get an opportunity like THAT again...

i used to spend like a maniac.
Now im trying to save and just budget.
Trust me, i dont make alot - i get by.
Ive come to a point in my life where its time to stop spending and start planning. That way i can afford to spend int he future and not be stuck in a job i dont like - "just getting by"
u know?
You obviously have NO kids.

no doubt you'd mess with the engine, so the tech would be garbage, infact ruined.

I asume you've driven an s2000? and know what the vtec engine is like in the car, since it's one of your options.

No offense homes but those are both really gay ass cars.. My wife wouldnt even drive those all 4'11 115lbs of her. Do the right thing and get yourself and F150.
I had intentions of posting a response, but I'd biased towards a diffrent automaker. In the interest of not starting a flame war, I'm gonna keep my comments to myself. SO.........my own bias aside, I hate the cooper, so i suppose the honda.

I wanna new car. I want the new Mustang, and I'm not even a Ford person. I just like the classic muscle car reinvention that it has. Fords are not know for their horse power, though. I love a lot of horse power.

You like that you are going to love the new camaro. and wait until 2008 for the new challenger from Dodge.
They are both way retro looking.
I would drive this if money was no object. I am a partial to trucks.

Shit forgot.
Skoof stay with the Honda. And check out the Mazda I believe its the Mazda8 with the rotary engine. Looks similar to the Honda.
I work at a VW dealer and to be honest German engineering aint all that good.

That's what I wanted when my car died-I went with the Ford500 instead because my husband said the Mustang would be 'not practical' phhhttttttt.
Oh yeah-the Honda looks good Skoof

I can barely make out what I'm looking at in this pic because my computer isn't loading the pic right or it's just real fuzzy.
Anyways, I have a 1949 Cadillac Hearse. It runs and all, the brakes are out though and we can't find a new master cylinder for it. But yeah, I thought that might fit in this thread.
And SKOOF, go with the Honda. It looks cooler.
walk - its better for you and the environment
