What's wrong with financing?



Just personal preference. There are decent cars to be had for 10k and under.

2006 intrepid. My dad bought. I would rather drink a jar full of aids than dealing with that car or a Chrysler car

Buying a Honda Civic Si. Don't get me wrong, it was a good car, but it just never did it for me. It was a blast to drive, it actually handled pretty good after some suspension mods, other than that the car was stock, down to the airbox. I only bought it as a cop-out because I was still under 25 and my insurance frowned upon anything even somewhat sporty, the civic was the only reasonable thing I could afford to buy and insure. It just seems like everyone who buys the si really wanted a wrx, Evo, sti or whatever car the bros are into now. Needless to say I ended up crashing that car stupidly on some backroads with some bald tires on wet leaves in October...not a smooth move. Ended up ordering a 2015 wrx and I'm happy with it. Has some torque and is excellent in the snow, even on just all-seasons, shit, my neighbor has a new one and he ran the fucker through the winter on stock summer tires lol, sadly I spent the extra cash and got some conti dws, after smashing my civic my driving confidence wasn't too hot lol.

1992 jeep yj 4.0 litre i6

In 2007 I was on a 1600km trip from one base to another for a course, about 6 hours in I put a rod through the block. Tow $ back 6 hours then a flight to where I was headed originally. When I came back home I pulled the engine and sold it as is.

Bought an EXP Turbo at a car auction many years ago and found out the previous owner raced it in some stock class at the Mid-Ohio sports car course. It was quick as hell and fun being a five-speed....unfortunately I quickly ended up putting a hole in a cylinder about the size of a half dollar coin.

Blew that bitch up good...

Spun a rod bearing in the original ls1 in my Formula. That's about it outside of self inflicted shit and nearly killing myself in my Trans Am in a thunderstorm.
