    Posted: 29 May 2006 at 8:35pm
First of all "hey again" its been awhile since ive been on here, but not that any of you missed me anyways. Now for the topic of my business I am once again consulting the almighty forumers for advice on a.. you guessed it.. a new ride. The word on the street A.K.A my Aunt has told me that my dad wants to buy a new car for my H.S graduation, so far my informant hasnt revealed any information on price limit, how "new" or if he has something in mind, im assuming whatever the circumstances it will be my choice within limits. So i have a few ideas in mind. Im not totally sure what type, im just lookin for some ideas. For some reason im drawn towards a 2005 mustang G.T... but i have MANY ideas in mind. I ride i am currently pimpin (sarcasm) is a 1995 honda Accord Ex-R (V6,leather,sunroof,C.D, power everything).

Dang wish my folks could have afforded to pull stunts like that.  But i dont think id opt for a car of any sorts.  A nice small pickup is FAR more usefull.  If ya wanna go fast nothing beats a bike.

...maybe for your case, but i never felt a truck was necessary for me, let alone more useful...and bikes are certainly not for everyone either (i can see what yur saying though)...

...good luck with whatever ride you got (and the v6 accord isnt a bad car).

heck tell your parents they can buy me one too.

is there a certain type of car you want. have you looked into a tiburon? I think they are pretty slick, the brand new ones come with a v6 6 speed.

APU ill pick you up after i get back from beach week. But anyways, im keeping my options extremely open, due to the fact that i know so little about my options. There is a NICE prelude for sale down the road for me that i wouldnt mind acquiring. And on a side note my son is doin just fine, he's 18 months old now. And you all may be wondering why my options are so open with my car selection, well its because my, was girlfriend, now FIANCE has a 2001 Accord EX-R that will be our family car. My new vehicle will be our backup/fun/whatever car, and therefore can be just about anything. We really like S2000's but theres no back seat at all, so right now thats out of the question. So yea, keep em coming.

The new TDi Jettas are wicked sweet, fast as hell, and fun to drive in the 5spd.

Im looking at several different cars right now from a Type-R Integra, to a Honda Prelude. VTEC would be nice but i'm not sure if I would end up getting either of those cars yet, there's still other possibilitys.

i drove a few type-r's at a teg meet once and they're amazing (said to be best handling fwd ever)...its hard to find one and they're usually at least triple the price of a similar gsr/gs/ls integra, but worth it imo. if i didn't go the sedan route, i'd probably have a type-r.
