thinkin about givin up..

[KaotiKCamaro5]

Kindof down in the land of f-bodies.. my car has been taking a crap left and right on my lately guys.. i'm starting to have my doubts about even being able to afford a new car now. Do you guys think i should keep my plan and buy a Trans Am or give in and buy something that's good on mileage and wont kill my pocket book?

*its always been my dream to own a beefed up V8.. but now im not so sure its gonna happen... any input please guys..

[Genopsyde]

as much as i love V8 F-body's I hafta give you an honest opinion...Get something economical until you're financially stable enuff to get a LS1 car.

[Savage Messiah]

I'd say a cheap, reliable econobox until you can afford the 8

[KaotiKCamaro5]

eh.. i dont want a cheap reliable car though... (what do you want me to do buy an Eclipe?) its either a 4X4 SUV so i dont die goin out to the farm or the TA... guess it all depends on how it goes friday at the bank...

[WeirdRich]

Purely because no one else has suggested it yet, Id say go with the V8 Trans Am. You may be eating Roman Noodles for a while, but at least you'll get to Walmart faster

[FormulaLT1]

NOW!!!!!!!

you have to decide what you want in life. If you like having a lot of money to throw around and spend without thought be like most kids and get a honda. But if you want to put your money to good use you can afford a V-8 with a job. My first car is a Z28 and i just don't spend money like i used to. I'm actually saving more money now than when i was when i didn't have the car.

[Twitch1]

Yeah, just because you buy a used econobox doesn't mean it'll be trouble free. Any repairs you can't do will cost the same per hour as a V-8 car and parts are relatively as expensive. It could be more costly than a less troublesome V-8 car.

There are just some cars you wouldn't want to be associated with or seen in, like all of us. Choose wisely.

yeah man i know things may be hard i cant get my ls1 untill after the summer you gotta pick your spots in life get what you can handle, no need to get something you want and cant afford it then have to give it back thats the worse, it may sound corny but one thing i have found in my many travels all over the world and my now 30yrs in life sometimes waiting is the best thing to do.

[tacoma man.]

none of my business, but is you car paid for ????
if so keep it for a while and save for that T/A. you can do it!

[cuda_dude]

Kieft... i know what you want to hear.... GO BUY THE TA! .... you will just be kicking yourself later on if you dont buy it... your getting a good deal and it works for your life style..... the TA will be good on gas(probably around 20mpg) ...... so go get it.....

either that, or everyone else on the forums dissappears.

imoh, patience is a virtue. you can get yourself an economical car and save up to buy your dream car. the ends justifies the means, you have a cheap efficient car then you can save money and work up to what you really want in a car. you will prolly be more satisfied that way, rather than ending up with a car you like, but dont love...

Im with John here, get what u want or u might regret it later. I would take the risk and get the TA and figure the rest out later. U say ur car now is taking crap left and right the TA couldn't be anyworse. But like i said to before test drive it first.
