today i bought a 1998 Civic

good choice, how many miles?

I almost wrecked my car this morning.. I was in middle lane doing 85 cars on both sides, this douche in front cuts into my lane less than 1/2 car length in front of me doing about 5 miles less than the speed limit...

I slammed on breaks, ass of car started to slide out, I dropped it to 4th gear and regained control..

I also hate people who cut me off!!!

 

[squatmonkey]

I love civics, I had a 95 and drove the shit out of that thing. Im actually going to Honda next month. They sell about 150 cars a month and we sell about 40.

97,000
not bad for a 10 yr old car
plus we know the guy who owned it
actually his brother had it first
but he was a cop who died in the line of duty

cool.. My mom had a civic when I was a kiddie.. She was a single mom and that car got us everywhere for a long time.

yeah im a fan of hondas and toyotas

im keeping this car until early '09 when I plan to upgrade to a late model - im thinking of looking at nissans and mazdas as well

 

[squatmonkey]

They are great cars,very reliable just gas and go ( not much gas either). You should be very happy.

yeah its a little small on the interior
and i had to compromise on the 5spd - i really prefer an automatic

yeah subaru is an option for me as well down the road
will be living in wisconsin and will likely make much use of AWD

 

[squatmonkey]

Subaru makes really good stuff. I love the WRX STI thats a bad mofo. The outback is real nice to our Volvo XC 70 competes with it, real popular out west not so in Alabama. People around here love their SUVs still, I dont get it.

 

[SaladFork]

I might go try and sink my car today.

 

[squatmonkey]

Make sure its running, that way they total it.

Not trying to total it lol...

I bought my wife a 2000 Subaru outback sedan limited
flawless condition and I bought it off my mommy and she pampered the thing, and my father is a FANATIC about his cars
bought it with 64K last year and have about 75K on it now
4 banger is good on gas too

I couldn't drive it myself everyday, the drivers side room left to right is not big enough for a big hunka like myself.

 

[squatmonkey]

We have alot of high end stuff where I work $50 to $60k and I drive this shit around during the day but when I get off work I get into my $500 piece of shit s-10 pickup with rust all over it, because it gets 25mpg and my Navigator gets only 12mpg.

 

[timtim]

i usually try and not mingle with people who are financially unable to afford having a driver take them to their destination rather than drive a honda. some may say im priveleged, i disagree. i think you "drivers" are just too poor for me to actually sustain life around. drive. what a novel idea.

hello lumberg

You sell cars?



You're no monkey of mine!

Why is it car salesmen have the reputation of a child molester anyway?

Why is it car salesmen have the reputation of a child molester anyway?

the correlation is the bait and switch.

both car salesmen and pedophiles bait you by offering great things like a new car or candy and toys. then they pull the switch and theres $5000 extra on your bill out of nowhere or you have a penis in your mouth/ass. bait and switch.
