All of you women must be getting paid more than us guys, because I'm hearing a lot of "paid for all of my carS...". Whatever the case be, that's good.
Getting at least the insurance payment from parents must be nice. It adds up.

I know I dont really count cause I am a guy and all, but I have owned 3 vehicles and paid for them myself.
1st car: 1983 Mercury Marquis station wagon(baby blue with the fake wood paneling on the side) nice leather seats though. 2nd car: Beater 1970 chevy pickup. Now: 1999 acura integra ls (stock) that I pay a horrable interest rate for(never financed a car before) and to top it off 4000 dollars a year in insurance. And that is with no tickets. Thank god I am in the military and the government pays for my housing, cause I cant afford much else. I guess the point of my story is that usually someone takes care of their vehicles better cause they are paying for them and not mom and pops. At least, that is how it woks with all the people that I know. |

I totally agree with you guys on that too..I mean I posted what I drive awhile back in this Thread. I admit, my mom and dad did pay for my 94 GSR Sedan but that's also because they bought my bro a 2001BMW. The point is, they may have spent $5600 on my car, but I payed for my jdm dc2 front conversion, my b20/vtec with JEpistons, my JDM interior, and some of the other goodies I have on my car...To me, that's not so bad for a high school girl
But yah, Props to all the ladies..! And yes, to the fellas too! |

well..i guess i really can't say much since my folks bought me my car...a 93 honda accord...man when i saw the car the first time i thought my parents must've been on the bong one too many times...
the exhaust had a huge crack...it sounded like i had a 4" exhaust on a stock lx muffler...the engine idled crazy...it died on us 4 times just trying to get it home...that was $4700 well spent..then i had to spend another $250 of my money getting the car to even run...i could've told them the moment i saw it that the car was a p.o.s. but i decided hey they were kind enough to buy it for me so i can't really complain...still driving it even though i've gotten into a wreck...damn woman turned left into me when i was in the middle lane of a four lane street...i was like wtf? well..i got $4000 for the car so i'm giving that back to my folks...cost me $1000 to fix the damage...so all in all the car cost me over $2500 to fix the problems it came with and my folks $700...not too shabby...and yes i've played mechanic on the car and done some dumb things...the car's still in pieces actually...stripped everything out but haven't had the time to put in my springs and struts...one of these days... |

Re: How many of you girls buy your own cars?
I saw this post, and I must say that I give mad props to y'all that are paying for your own stuff. I'm still my dad's princess, and I will forever be my dad's princess, but that's me. I'm getting a swap and a lowering kit for Christmas, so that's really exciting, even though the swap is for the same engine/tranny that I have now (I have a blown tranny now. ) Anyways. Mad props to y'all, and good luck with the carS
PS- That also means that I'll have an extra b16 laying around. Anyone wanna buy it? PM me for sure. |

Wow, a lot of you girls are hard workers Props to all of you. My parents bought me two cars: a 98 Honda Civic Ex but later sold it and got me a 93 delsol si b/c I could reach the pedals better (haha)... also b/c it had lower insurance and I have three strikes on my record lol
Anyways, now my del sol is sold b/c I transferred to a 4 yr college & am living on campus. My parents strongly discourage working while I'm in school. I guess it has paid off b/c I am a senior at UCSB at 19 yrs old I am not looking forward to paying for my future car but I will be so proud when I finally do I'm glad a lot of you girls actually work for your cars b/c I know that many guys think that they are the only gender that does |

Re: How many of you girls buy your own cars?
Hey I am 24 married with a 3 year old and yes my husband paid for my 94 Honda Civc. But guess what I am doing all the mods myself. I am proud to be a girl that can actually do more work on a car than most guys claim to . I worked as a paint prep for a bodyshop for almost 2 years. I can't wait to actually getting started with real mods!!!
And for all that doubt ricers are KICKASS!!!!!! |
