Don't want her to have a nicer neon than me. Although my neon is nowhere near nice right now.

She's not too big on neons. She likes the way they drive but she's looking for a convertible. if i win the lottery i might wanna pick myself up an srt4. Saw one online a few towns over from where i am. damn it was beautiful

those mitsu's are junk trust me i used to own one

that one as way too many miles on it bro, i would pass and find something with less miles on it that she would enjoy just the same. And just my .02 but if your buying this girl a car you betta be saving for a ring so you can marry her, cause thats alot of love for her just to be your girlfriend.....LOL

When did you own one???

I'm with KracK. WAYYYY to many miles for that price.

Look harder and make her a little more than a "girlfriend"

1999-2000 right before i got my neon, the damn thing was a piece of crap the motor mounts went up and the interior started falling apart, the check engine light stayed on and all i had was a muffler added and to top it off the car was brand new with only 100 miles on it when i bought it and i only had it for 6 months.

way too much....you can find eclipse converts around here for like 13k with 30k miles or less

I'm with Krack and Opi, that is one hell of a gift for just a girlfriend.

Moparty08 · Post by **Moparty08** » Fri May 16, 2008 12:30 am

Well i guess fiance actually. just still say gf. I bought my friend a car last week. I'm actually looking to maybe get something else as well. My insurance right now is close to 200 and with this car added it will kill my pockets even more. She's also interested in a celica. She was looking at a few hondas but i told her i wouldn't buy one

Post by **racer12306** » Fri May 16, 2008 8:19 am

why? because they are great cars that take a beating and still drive great. yeah don't get one of those

Moparty08 · Post by **Moparty08** » Fri May 16, 2008 8:41 am

The one she was looking at was a beater. with even more miles. I told her we'd keep looking maybe find a better one. The other one was like 13k and i don't have that much. I'm looking in the 9k and below range

Wait you are 19 and buying your girlfriend a car? I don't know your situation, but most guys at 19 won't have a the same girl in 2 years. Good luck! I wish I had your kind of money, I can't even afford a ring for my girlfriend!

Most! I started dating my fiance at 17, 4 and a half years later we're still rollin'.

Moparty08 · Post by **Moparty08** » Sat May 17, 2008 6:57 am

me and my fiance have been together for 3 years now. I don't see how we'd have a problem in the future. I own a house and we have a baby on the way. I'm starting HVAC work in the fall with her uncle making 16.50 an hour 40 hours a week. The pay will only go up from there. We are looking like we will have a pretty good life. We've been threw shit and back but we're still going strong.

Wow congrats! Most people around your age are not nearly as mature!

Although I was 20 when I fell in love, (at first sight) Mandy was 1 week shy of 18 when we met. Long story short, I proposed at 3 months and we were married at 9 months. Here we are next week we will have been married for 24 years and going strong. It does happen.

As for the car, I would have to say wait and do some more research. I also believe that a 2002 with 122k doesn't sound all that great. Hell, I only have 60k (reached that this Thursday) and my Neon is a 2000. I'm sure a better deal will present itself.

That's because you are a freak

I have just shy of 112K on my '02. It's been great to me...but then again your girlfriend doesn't want a Neon

We found a car. It's a 94 olds achieva she fell in love with it. It has a rebuilt engine and the engine has about 50k on it. It is fully dynamatted. it also has new brakes and rotors, nice rims, a cai and a nice pioneer system. It also has a custom paint job. Let's just say with my stock neon i'm a little jealous haha.

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Sat May 17, 2008 1:33 pm

i will never ever buy a modded car. Generally you know it's been beaten to piss.

unless i personally knew someone who owned it and how they took care of it.

Moparty08 · Post by **Moparty08** » Sat May 17, 2008 2:15 pm

Yeah i know the person i bought it from. They took care of it. It was his parents car then he got it and did work on it with his dad.

It's a sparkle blue. It's actually pretty nice. and the car's a coupe not a sedan. It's actually not that bad. I like it. And it's better that we don't have car payments right now too.
