• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

haha thats very true, as far as a car it was a cheap and fun build but hondas are like a$$holes everyones got one lol i just didnt like the crowd they arent like most of the gp guys
 
Hey a thousand dollar gtp. It will still run just not well

Honestly get a cheap ass Honda that way you won't mod it without embarrassment. It will get good gas mileage unlike a gp (I did 32mpg on my stripped down beater coupe)

Get something with a stick. No matter what if your a car guy you'll enjoy driving it. Pay in cash for the full amount and then beat on it every day till your out of school and can afford to work for what you want.

If your dad is just gonna pay for it than still get a 1000$ Honda. They last forever with maintenance
 
i got my gtp for 1200 with 138k miles runs perfect even had the water pump replaced all new belts and all fluids changed before i picked it up and it gets 32mpg all day every day not a single problem out of it
 
my dad came home today and said theres a 08 G5 manual. not huge into G5s but its a good car and has 42xxx miles on it. i cant easily afford it just have to pick up hours this summer when i get out of school, maybe a secong job.
my main questions are~
does it getannoying drivinga manual for 3 years?
are G5s good cars?
 


stick is always the way to go if the car you want has one available and if you know how to drive it lol its better on gas as well
 
just talk to your dad seriously about it, as much as any of us would hate to admit it or not, generally our dads are normally are looking out for our best interests and trust his judgment
 
yeah but he told me to get a cavalier so i dont trust his judgement to much haha i know hes probably right but its a base model and i really will miss the speed of my grand prix but i proably need a slower car to be less stupid. has anyone owned one? are they as good as cobalts?

lol........i have driven a few cavaliers, not a huge fan cobalts are nice but id only drive the ss lol what exactly could you spend without getting a loan?
 


I drive a stick everyday in my fiesta. 100hp of meh. But I usually see triple digit speed on my way home from work.

The fiesta is alot quicker than my brothers civic. The fiesta was an economical choice. I needed a new car and to rebuild my credit. Two birds add I never miss a payment and it gets paid off in the years. Not bad for a 12k$ car out the door

probably like 3k and the only problem is i dont have a ton of time to look becauce i need a car for school and work
 
test driving the G5 tomorrow after work, this thing better be good on gas becasue i am not buyin it for its speed thats for sure
 


What did you think of the G5?
My dad thought I was a fool for buying a GTP, but I am enjoying. You should buy an econo-box with a stick and if you're going to throw parts at it, only throw handling parts in and enjoy the twisties and good fuel milage.
I'm closer to 30 than 20 and I only now can finally afford to put a little bit of money into a semi-fun car.
I'm with everybody else who says that at 17 you shouldn't get yourself too far behind in money. If you can afford to pay cash, buy that car, but take out a small loan on it and build some credit, when you get older and are ready to buy something bigger, you'll be happy that you did.
