What are you doing with your tax refund?

I haven't even gotten my w-2 yet, but I already know what I'm spending it on. It's going for a downpayment on an S2000 in a couple of months. What about you?

If I get enough, an exhaust, if not enough for that then a Kimber or another nice .45, and if not enough for that...a week long drinkathon.

Paying off the bill from the true duals. And all the little shit I have had to buy recently for the car.
Hoping tune gets covered as well.


Oh yeah...O2 sensors too. Stock ones didn't like being abused....they aren't switching properly anymore.

Kind of OT, but did you ever get that dent in your car fixed? Weren't you going to sell if afterwards and get something else?

Got it fixed this week, for $40 from the mexican body shop next door at work, looks great too.

Gotta love the hookups.


And yes, it's for sale.

Either a downpayment on a new ride or a 12-gauge.

Re: What are you doing with your tax refund?

drugs.

actually, i haven't got mine yet, i think i get something like 100$ from working the summer, i don't remember. the damn government took away an ass load of money for my pension plan. the way i want to live (and drive) i don't plan on living long enough to collect that, what a gyp.

Just kidding about the drugs. Kids, stay in school and don't do drugs, or you'll end up like my cousin (that's a bad thing).

Re: What are you doing with your tax refund?

I'll probably use all of mine just to pay for my fucking insurance. My insurance is WAY too much considering I don't have any infractions on my record (Went to traffic school), and I have no counts on my record. Oh yeah, i'm paying $1500 a year for my insurance.

I just figured he would be buying some colored pieces for his interior.
Probably just paint it though.
