Well...I was in the market for an auto for now. The next ride will definately be a 5-speed but thats not for a while...gotta pay this one off first, and then maybe enjoy a year or two without car payments!!

Why were you in the market for an auto?
It's a long story with my car...(the shortened version):
I had just turned 15 when I bought my '92 GXE. It was a deal I just couldn't refuse from a friend!! It needed a new tranny...so I got it for a pretty good deal ($1500 + $2000 tranny = $3500) plus maybe almost another $500-$1000 in miscellanious parts like brakes, muffler, etc. Anyway, the law here in NJ is at 16 you get your permit and 17 you get your license. Me being 15, I couldn't drive it, so my dad payed insurance on it and he used it for a year. I got my permit now, and I decided that I'd rather have my dream of a '97 SE instead of the '92 GXE. So, I began my search. Went to dealers, but had no luck (too much $$$...one dealer wanted $19,200 for a '97 SE Auto w/ Only S&C Pkg. and Sunroof). I found one in the local paper fully loaded '97 SE Deep Evergreen w/ Tan Leather, Bose, Sunroof, ABS, and all that. I went to look at it, and the car is immaculate. And there you have it. Thus, the '92 GXE is for sale for $4800 (I really only want $4500) and I'm getting a new '97 SE. Some of my friends say that I'm crazy being on my 2nd car and I don't even have my license, but I'm proud of myself because I am paying for everything myself. It's gonna take me 4 years to pay it off...but at least it'll be mine and I won't be like some of the spoiled kids around here who drive brand new cars that their parents bought for them and still hit their parents up for gas money. (No flames intended if this is you)
End of my story!!

What are some good ways to get enough money? im in the market for a 97 se 5spd..a black one..it doesnt have to have leather, but it should be in good shape. I know some webdesign stuff, how did you do it?
thanks

Ok this is the one time i will agree its cool to have an Auto.. my Stepmother had a 89 SE 5spd and my brother just got his license, but they thought it might be a bit powerful for him at 16 and that i agree with

hehe, 100 a week. thats nothing when you start modding your car. I did the same thing when i was 16, now I make 400 a week (Im a student, give me a break) and I still dont have all the money for the mods and car payments. Its like a have a hole in my pocket. Hmm and Nj insurance is a *****. But hey its all good. hopefully you dont like some where by Hamilton or there might be trouble

Man....once you get old enough...start waiting tables somewhere....I'm a student, and work at Chili's...and if I work a full week...I can pull over 600 bucks...AFTER TAXES!!! It's amazing...only problem is you usually have to be a little older...I live in Chicago...and the min age is 19....I'm 20...turning 21 in May Modding the car IS expensive....and even with my 600 bucks a week, which is rare cuz I'm in school all the time, I still can't mod fast enough...hehe

There are several places around here to work too that offer more than min. wage ( up to 9 and hour ) I'll just save it all up, cuz money will be goin strictly for the car. mom said she'd pay for insurance. man i cant wait! now they are sayin that they are gonna propose a law down here that for 6 months after you get your license (16) you can only have fam in the car with you..but thas fine.. me and my max will make very good friends

Welcome to the fold, Nick! Don't worry about the auto! I'm told that Don's VB mod will spice up the tranny!
