need help.

[Slo86Bird]

i might be sellin the bird cuz my mom says "a v8 is too fast for you cuz u gotta lead foot"

so with that said, if i sell the bird imma get a 4 banger. what should i get?

i was thinkin slobalt ss or womething. just no civics or ***** like that.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

You can speed in pretty much anything. Did you try telling her that it won't happen again and then prove it? or use it as an excuse to let it all out at the track?

[Slo86Bird]

i got 2 speeding tockets and had my license a little over a month...think shell believe me? no i dont think so lol

[chrisfrom nj]

you can get a speeding ticket in a geo metro

[Slo86Bird]

i know lol. im also lookin at gtis

[BonzoHansen]

I got more tix in my Civic then all the other cars I've owned combined.

I'm guessing a high school kid can't afford a cobalt ss - they are pretty new, right? Get a $500 beater POS. Keep the chicken. Make her a deal, no tix for a year and you get the bird back.

[Featherburner]

Honda Kick N Go. You'll get no tickets with that.

[WayFast84]

get a moped.

He has a go-ped. But I feel that let mom take the bird from you for a year. Drive something cheap and then get the bird back like bonzo said when you show here you've been doing good and I am not sure a front wheel drive car is good for you because you'll end up off the road from tray sliding.

[SpeedMetalT/A]

Tray sliding FTW!!!

[trashman01]

go get a escort(like a 91-95 2dr with a 5spd) cheap, good cars, REALLY good gas mileage, the wagon my buddy owns gets 38 on the highway, that was with three of us, and 16 wheels/tires in the back lol

[Mike]

a gti, cobalt ss, and other cars in that class, would probably be faster than your third gen anyway

[79T/A]

First of all, you need to learn how to talk to cops. The words "Yes sir/ma'am" and, in a pinch, "Really?! Wow! I apologize; I didn't realize I was going that fast!" saved my teenaged ***** many times in my youth.

Seriously, though. Slow down. If you pled guilty to those speeders, you're an insurance nightmare. Young male drivers get screwed from the getgo. I agree with the Ford Taurus. Good getaround car.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

2 tickets in 1 month? Damm son. I've never been pulled over in over a year of driving red cars and the Camaro and I've done some stupid stuff....105 mph in exploder at night....some donuts, quick peels....

And 79 t/a whoever it was said escort not taurus

[88Z-Man]

I feel for ya. When I was 17 wanted a 74 T/A with a nitious hook up from the guy down the street from me, used to drag with it and kick a**. Well pops found out and that ended that. He said no hot rods. So when I turned 19 I went out and got the Iroc. Had it ever since. But like everyone says you can speed in any car. Just get a something you and the parents can agree on and lighten up the foot. Easier said then done. We all most likely did the same things at 17.

[mtnhopper1]

When I wan in HS, my friend's mom said the same thing. He wanted to buy his neighbor's Torino GT (a la Starsky & Hutch), but she said it was too fast. Instead he went out and bought a '77 Grand Marquis wagon (the one with folding headlights and the wood on the side), bought the motor (351C) from his neighbor's Torino, and we put it into his wagon in shop class. He didn't even bother to paint the wagon. It was ugly yellow, had woodgrain paneling on the sides, and no hubcaps.

Needless to say, his mom wasn't amused. He did get to keep the car through the winter. It wasn't that fast, but that thing could smoke the tires for days, and it could do donuts anywhere. He went through nearly all of the 15" tires that were laying around the HS auto shop that winter.

She made him sell it in the spring, and he bought a Dodge Omni GLH-S. Basically, the moral of this story is that his parents turned him into a ricer.

Whoops! Gotta lay off the cough syrup.

[Stroked355Z28]

I know its hard sometimes, but just take it easier, and talk it out with your mom, maybe you should invest in a radar detector, Later, Jeff

[Slo86Bird]

i have a radar detector. for some reason it dont beep! it dont get the guns which sucks. idk what imma do. im tired of my car anyways, i wanna 4th gen. well see what happens. i always get good deals on cars but never have money for them but now i gotta ok payin job n well see what crawls up my ally. i know of a 87 chevy 1500, shortbed singlecab, 350 4spd, lifted 11 inches and has 38 inch tires and the guy wants 5k, new paint, clean interior, runs amazing. but idk yet.

Another cop magnet.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Tired of your car already?! I'll take it off your hands for 5 bucks lol. How can you get bored with a car within 1 month? Hell my first car didn't make me bored that quick and it was a 96 olds cutlass supreme w/ the 3.1 and 10 sec 0-60!!!

[Slo86Bird]

i had it for 7 months i think. i get tired of things fast. obviously. i know the truck is a cop magnet but i wouldnt speed haha. itd be outta gas by the time i was at 80. i dont drive alot so i dont care too much about gas prices. and soon i wont be driving at all so i really dont care about gas prices....what im thinkin about doin when i lose my license is get a 110 cc motor n out it on my bmx bike so i have some sort of transportation. haha.

When you lose your license? Not if but when? Obviously you have high hopes. I would think you'd be better off just buying a cheap moped/goped/scooter.

[Slo86Bird]

i have a goped, hate it. i want something i could ride in snow lol.......wanna buy the goped?

[BonzoHansen]

Oh, and that truck likely will not pass inspection. What are those tix now, $180?
