how about just finding a way to earn some great, honest money?

 

.

 

Amen to that

 

Go to college, get a real job, and buy a used Maxima. You can buy all the mods you want.

I'm still amazed at all the people in here who buy new cars, blow everything on their cars, and go partying yet they still live with their parents. I like nice cars too, but damn, if I was still living with my parents at age 21+, I think I'd feel like I wasn't making much of my life. There's a lot more to life than cars and drinking. Just my opinion.

Im in college, i already bought a used max, now im just working on the job part

 

i just hope your credit card debt isnt as high as the back of your car



for me, i live at home, work part time, go to school part time, and slack full-time. maybe thats why i have almost no mods?

but mostly I drive around the Ginza strip in my 89 RX-7 high-beaming peeps, earning money the fast way.

oh yeah, i have a credit card too, but I pay off each mod before I buy the next...

 

Buy an 88 accord race a car for 100 bucks then upgrade win another race and then buy a newer car and race that for money, or buy a 92 se 5spd for $300 and sell your 91 gxe for $2500 then have a nice ride, and sell crack on the side

Sometimes mods come all at one time some times they are far apart, My theory is if its a good deal now and you cant pay for it your gonna have to pay twice as much later so find a way= Greddy cat back, stillen kit, double din 5" lcd. and touring wing

 

Oh the Great Credit Card...
Cmon how many guys do you see driving around in BMW's, MB's..etc and they work in the supermarket? I see a lot...
Me.. I'm all cash baby
Of course living with mommy helps

 

I sell car stereos out of the trunk of my car

 

I'm a loan officer I lend money to people in need and get high interest in return

 

being 30, having an M3 and living with mommy doesn't sound that cool.

 

 

having an m3 sounds cool and getting to see your mom all the time has to be great

 

easy

just spend all the money you make on your car.

 

No, no it doesn't. People still do it anyway

 

i got ALL of my mods for christmas
well all i got is a strut bar

 

7500.00 owed to Visa. It's so great... I can't wait to try and pay that off these up and coming months.. anyone hiring???

 

depends what you tell others...
It can be you living with mommy.... or it's mommy living with you

 

man you ppl are silly!

i hate ppl who always ***** about them always being broke. i grew up in the gheto and hardly graduated from high school.I'm edumacated in the sense that i can't remember what they taught me when i was in jhs,hs,college. i went to a bad a s s school and decided that s h i t, i can do it. so i decided one day freak, i'll just get my degree from a college. so i did, now i'm bored as hell in a job i hate looking at people's eyes all day!

looks at this guys, i have a looser brother who dropped out of school who valete parks cars for a living and drives a sooped up supra coutesy of mommy.

there's 2 ways........mommy or joo

i refuse to do anything ilegal or unlegit. do on to others is like them doing u momma!

 

He does ... I saw him at Stllen Maxima Day...surprised they didn't ask you to leave too...guess you got lucky they don't sell stereos or you would have been pushing in on their sales.


But seriously, I have a 14 yr career for now as a Marine and work a second job (at a auto parts store, hello discount) for play money and seem to spend all of it on toys...hope to do some contracting for computer work soon and that will allow for some good cash flow as well.

 

What kind of job is that?

 

a good job

 

LOLI love that movie...fast and the furious rules..

 

what do you mean?

whats that supposed to mean?

*hands him paper*

read it, its directions, to race wars.

we'll see how you do.

then we'll talk.

 

accutally thats the whoel theme of the movie... its called the fast and ther furious!!


go out and rent it... any mod person will like it or not love this movie...

 

I live pretty cheaply, go to an in-state public school, and get a lot of financial aid. Living expenses first, then I can play around with what's left. This explains why my only mods are FSTB, RSB, clears, and 97-99 SE wheels. I love my car, but I haven't worked since high school and I don't see myself starting again until I leave college.

 

AMEN

 

You also got raped by my car this weekend... ahahahahahaha

 

you know how some people take a chunk out of their earnings and put it into savings - then after a while they don't miss the money... I kinda do that, but the chunk of money goes into my maxima instead.

 

Just save up. Work like three weeks without buying your max anything just spending what you haev to. Then if your working you have a few hundred to play with so get yourself 1 thing. Then do this again for three to 4 weeks. Eventually you actually start having a surplus of money.

Very easy.

As many of you know, I've got a whole lot invested in my car. For me, a lot of it's sponsored, but keep in mind that to keep my sponsors happy, I'm going to be doing something like 20-30 shows this year. Car will be travelling all over, from Florida to Texas, to the northeast, and I may take it to California. And when I'm not doing shows, I'm working like 12-14 hours a day. I run my own business, so I have to work the hours. And when I'm not working on the business, I have to work on my car. The security guards at my apartment are always rolling by because I'll be in the garage at like 4am working on something. It's not easy, but I'm happy with what I do. Keep in mind this isn't for everyone. If you have a regular job, then obviously putting this much time into the car isn't feasible. But when your car is part of your advertising budget for your business, it's easier to justify. But ask around for the people with a ton invested in their cars, like over $20K and you'll find very few that aren't in the industry in some way. Without sponsors or deep discounts on parts, very few people make enough money to invest more into the car than the original purchase price.

 

See, this is what is crazy and seems to be an epedemic in the US. People buy stuff they can't afford. People buy big houses, drive expensive cars, yet they have no furniture in their house and they can barely make the payment on thier "phat" ride. I guess it's the American way because nearly all my friends live this way. $7500 in credit card debt at 18% interest will end up killing you. You could actually buy a mid 90s M3 with all the money you'll up spending paying off the $7500 at 18%, paying the minimum each month. Remember that. My wife and I make a point not to carry credit card debt. Too many of our friends are drowning in $5000-10000 credit card bills. Too many 20-something adults are drowning in this debt and I blame most of it on their parents. Monkey see, monkey do.

Each year, I spend about 6% of what I make on my car, mods wise. The rest goes into my house, IRAs, 401Ks, various stocks, and living expenses. I could be driving a MUCH more expensive ride, but what would be the point? I wouldn't be able to afford any mods and make it my own. That's almost 80% of the fun with driving any kind of car. What you put into it is what's fun, IMO. I'm not suggesting that everyone live as frugal as myself, but don't you guys want to retire young? BTW, I don't make a lot of money. Our combined income is only about $70K a year living in one of the nicer suburbs in the Kansas City metro area. 70K is just under the median household income in KC.
