Well, most of you might be thinking...not even 17yet...got a Celi GT auto...93 RX7 Twin Turbo...how the hell doe she afford these? Parents must be rich....uhm no! So that's to clear that up. I pay for all these cars out fo my own pocket. I currently work two jobs and maintain a 4.2 GPA so puh!

Anyways, I have collected a few cars in the past few months that are like Grand Ams and whatnot (under my parents' names but i pay for them) I buy them with body damage and have them repaired and then sell them for more. Well I got enough for a good down payment on another ride...what you think about this?

Spec-V

I'm thinking this would be the car I wouldn't store in the winter, unlike my RX, and I don't know...just drive it whenever I'm not driving the Celica? This would also give me a car to drive during the winter...then cut the insurance on my Celi and don't drive and with the money I save from not driving the Celica...I could throw in a 3SGTE? I don't know though. What do you guys think of these?

i dunno about that- even though se-r's are quick, its really not that great a car... The shift likage is notchy, its small inside, and it's resale value is still up in the air- and my guess is it wont be that great... You are better off diving the celica in the winter and storing the RX-7, in my opinion- its not worth a new car payment for a nissan >> but yeah it all boils down to what you like- but like i said yeah- 15 g for a se-r- id rather not...

Yeah I agree thats a lil over priced for a used spec v, they are pretty good cars though, just when you have a celica (daily driver) and an rx-7 (the fun driver) no real reason to get the sentra.

yea when i turned 18 i had 3 cars... unlucky me :-(... well if you want to buy a third car go for it.. it will help you out trust me it will... and yea i didn't think you could get higher then a 4.0 GPA?

I love Spec-V's as far as speed goes (only ridden in ones), but it is kinda cheap on the inside. Save your money, Celica's are fun.. buy another 6gc!

macavely, they could be on a 5.0/6.0 scale. My school is a 6.0 scale.. it's all based on what AP/PAP classes, etc. you take.

Here we have a 4 point grading system but if u are taking AP courses that have a 5 point grading system your average can be way above 4.0 depending on how many AP classes u want to take.

dont buy a nissan! DAMN, if ur gonna drop 15 grand for a new car when you got two already, take that and move out!!or at least buy something useful...rx-7 = fun, fast car. celica = fun daily driver. Get a 4x4 truck or somethin so you can experience off road driving. Just my 1/2 cent >>

I was actually thinking like pimping out a Wrangler with the inline 6 cylinder and 5 speed. That'd be so much fun! Great idea!!!!!

I just bought a 2000 Rodeo for the winters. Already threw a system in and planning on brush guard and nerf bars..

For that cash, you could buy another 3-5K Celica and drop in the ST205 3S-GTE...and then some. Forget the Sentra.

My RX was stolen...

your car was stolen???!!!!

Yeah. Parents were home yet sleeping...and their cars get the garage...so my RX was sitting outside (only another week before I throw it in storage) and I took the Celi cuz there was snow on the ground. got back at around 3am and it was gone...no joke.

Yeah, I had vandalism and theft coverage on it. AND yes I called the police...they say they haven't seen one around at all and can't really do anything as there is no evidence and no trace of the car. I didn't have an alarm yet...but it's ok. Insurance money is good and I'm looking for a new one today. Found a yellow 93 I like.
I hate people...

Snadman is a nickname I was given a while ago. I live in Blaine

I'm guessing right now, that your RX was nicer than your parents cars...why dont they let you park it inthe garage? My Celica is nicer than both my mom and dad's vehicles, so I get the garage.

damn dude that sucks, i would beat the **** out of the person if i ever found out who it was

I'm thinking I know who. One of my aquaintances (I say aquaintance because he isn't a friend if he stole my friggin car) who I race with at the Airport autocross track...I think it was him. I was looking for him because he knows a lot more about Rotary engines than I do and I was going to ask him to go along with me when I went looking...no one has seen him since the day before it happened. That ****er...if I ever catch his ass I will kill him.

Well, my car's value was around 20k and my parents drive a Navigator and a 626 with the JDM swap. So their cars get the garage over mine. For now, my Celica's doing fine and I was going to have to drive it anyways in the winter. Tomorrow I get a call from insurance company and they'll tell me how much they're going to give me.

Dag, that is terrible! I hope you get your car/money and the little coward that stole your RX-7. I'm happy for you that you had insurance. Who would own an RX-7 and not have insurance? >> . Any thoughts on the Sentra still? Or has your mind changed? If so, to what?
