bugs are sweet. the old ones i mean. the new ones are nice, but nothing like the old ones. i can drive a standard, but youre lucky. all your cars have been manual. all mine (all one of them:) ) is an auto. grrrrrrr i've been driving for a long time also. i have relatives that farm in arkansas, and so i would take their vehicles out in the fields and play around. i would drive on the roads too, no one cared. they're all nice country folk, lol

i feel for you dude. i hope i don't get any tickets or get in any wrecks. a friend w/ a '93 NA MR2 rear ended someone, and i think someone hit the back of him. needless to say, he was very very pissed. its a nice car. has rims, exhaust, not sure what else.

Lsnapl, you're in Newnan? Sweet! I'm right next door in PTC/Fayetteville! Other 240 people on the Southside, I'm amazed. I'm surprised there are many people on here that are near Atlanta at all.

You can take your time, I get my license in July, may not get a car til December 03'. Though I am more than likely going to get a 240, so that part is easy.

lsnaple, mines a '95 w/ the facotry color change paint stuff. i can't remember what its called. blue emerald or sumthin. its like purple sumtimes, blue, and kinda green other times. i love it. its a slugomatic, which i dont' love, but everything else about it is awesome. its a 7 year old car w/ 115k miles so it has its rattles, which i really don't like and worry about more than i should, but it runs great. i might could head down to see ya sumtime. who knows

yea thats cool,im just a senior in high school, and the other guy with the 240 is in college,and another friend is going to buy one goes to the same college.i dont know which 240 i should get now.i had a fastback and i wouldnt have sold it except to get a manual.i would love to get a 97 or 98 but i dont want too high payments, or payments at all.or maybe ill get a 95/96 with high mileage and have no payments.but i have a friend that has a 92 hatchback and may be willing to sell it to me for extremely cheap.then i would have some money to mod it with.decisions, decisions.what do yall think i should do?i have a month to decide.im going to go mainly for show now,since i have had 2 speeding tickets.but some things are necessities and are going on like i will put an exhaust on first.

Interesting... show now. That makes sense w/ 2 tickets, but it sounds a little ricey, depending on how "showy" you're going to make it. The 95/96 would probably look better, you could throw on the slant eyes from the 97/98 models and make it look real nice pretty cheap, especially in combo with some other simple body mods. The earlier one would be cheaper, and if you plan on doing an SR swap, it would definetely be because you have to have a newer engine when you replace one in GA. It really depends on what you want.

if you consider 25 days forever to get to 16, then what do you consider the 5 years it's going to take you to get to 21? :D

25 days is nothing compared to 10 months, but you're right compared to the 5yrs for 21. Oh well, just live your life one day at a time, whatever happens, happens.

what i mean by show is black paint on a c-west bodykit,lowered with some nice wheels.preferebly the s14 with the slant eyes.no gay s*** like apc stickers or any other stickers at all.no neon lights under or on the car(damn washer lights).maybe a wing.if i do,nothing huge.but FIRST, exhaust.love the low deep tone,with some other performance,not too crazy though.just like an intake,header,and pulleys.hopefully thatll hold me off untill my insurance will lower.oh yea,plug and wires,need to get a good spark with better air.sound ricey too you???i dont care,thats what im doing,mainly cause i cant afford any more tickets,and more performance parts=more tickets(for me).now tell me what you think.not trying to sound offensive.

Sounds real nice, I'm gonna check the C-West site, they seems to have really big, sometimes gross, body kits. As far as the wing, don't go erector set and it should look pretty nice. It sounds like you're going to do a good job of a show car. Maybe we'll have a Southside 240 meet late next year, that'd be pretty cool.

Man, I can't get any tickets or anything. If i do car is gone :(. Insurance is soo much, so that's pretty much what my parents told me. I have been pretty responsible so far, at least in not getting caught. Just don't do anything stupid, like spinning out in the rain, especially if you have bad tires that's pretty easy in rwd, i found out the hard way....

They have a real pretty S14 kit, simple all around, small lip spoiler in the rear, it would look real nice, there S13 kit is just too big, as is the S13 spoiler.

I found that out 2 also watch out for black ice, I was hoping to sell my Mustang and get a 240 but I guess totaling has the same effect (except for Insurance)

Now I like what I hear, wingless cars have more class, to me. It sounds like you're going to make a real nice show car with enough power to spank a Civic when necessary (there are so many of them here, sometimes I just want a bat). We'll have to meet sometime, being that we're so close by. I really didn't expect anyone on the southside of Atlanta.
