Ok, hopefully i'll get a job at SK SPEED... BUT, i'm honestly thinking of going all out and getting a second job at night...mainly like home depot/supermarkets that pay $8-11 hr for like 4-5 hours a night..then working a steady 40hr a week job (hopefully skspeed) on top of that.
The goal here, is to save up as much money as possible to get a car i REALLY like...i'm not talking like 30, 40K...just about 12K and under... I already did the math, and it would take awhile...BUT here's the kicker, what my friend suggested a while back is to sell my car (which i could get $2500 easily) and basically not have to worry about gas/car insurance...
If i do that, i'd be saving an extra $250 a month in insurance money and like $150 in gas....
As far as the car, i cannot, and DON'T want to finance..period..i'd rather wait it out and buy it out right...and get the sales a-hole to lower that price.. (i'm a good at that stuff :-)...
PS, it would be hard in the sense that i'll be working alot of hours a week, and working on like 3-4 hours of sleep per night.. AND i'd have to get a ride here or there, and use public transportation...although my 21 speed can get me to alot of places..lol..

As far as the cars i'm really interested in...
the big $$ would be for a low mileage, 00 to 02 GT stang, 5spd V8...
98-00 camaro 6spd V8 which i could get for under 10K with like over 70K on the ticker..
95 5.0 stang 5spd which might come modified, exhaust, blower, chip, etc..for like 5-9K...with over 50K on the ticker
OR...as my best friend suggest, just get a 90-92 5.0 foxbody for under 5K....and put some work in it..mainly work for reliability..before performance... THIS IS by far the most fun car i've ever been in...but i like the fact of having a newer car, especially the 00-02 stangs..
