Ahh, what happend to my points, ehh, anways. I was called up by the repair man for my car yesterday, telling me that i was ready, about a week in advance, YAY for him. I drive up, find a car that looks exactly like mine, with the front totalled, and a shitload of marks all over it. I Suddenly get that feeling that I could be cleared mentally insane i was to kill the guy. I look around some more and I find my car, nice, buffed, waxed and beautiful. Thats what I call relief, It actually looks pretty good, i was thinking it was gonna be lopsided, miscollored, wrong sized lights, blah blah, it looks almost the same as when i bought it, the only problem is that the bumper doesnt reach the top of the trunk hood. But then again, if you guys would have seen the way my car looked, this would be fine. Oyeah, his shop has an alignment center so he took care of that to. When i drove it home though, my ABS light came on. So i stopped to get some gas and examine the car somemmore. I turned it back on, and the light wasnt on, so i though it was okay, but by the time i reaced the driveway to get on the street, it was back on, so im gonna have to figure out whatsup with that.

P.S. Just remember, My car is back. You all will be annoyed by constant asking of questions that are probably easily findable. And will then be even more annoyed when i ask, ARE YOU SURE? or ask the question in different words....feels good to be back on the road again.

give it time... the color differences will show up so will all the problems... enjoy your car while it seems perfect. take some pics now.

Cash - whose car has spent 4 whole months of the entire 28 months he's owned the car in a body shop

 

good to see your back man!

 

What can i do to avoid some of the problems? I do plan to sell soon for like 3k maybe in a few months, get some more money and put a nice downpayment on a ex 03 depends how i feel.... so how can i avoid or just get the best out of the car?

I hope you were being sarcastic. Dont even try it. Read the forum guidelines in case you havent already done so.

 

Jon is never sarcastic, just ask anyone.


Or am i being sarcastic now.... ill guess my decreasing/increasing point value will show....

-Jon(hehe)

 

there's nothing you can except maybe not look at the car. the problems are there but you don't see them yet. takes time. don't sweat it.

and as far as selling and go down on an 03. what have we learned about debt already? you're 17. 15-18K in the hole is not where you want to be.

 

Well, I am supposed to be recieving a rather large amount of money soon, about mid november... so if everything goes to plan, I might be able to put a very very nice down payment on a 03 v6 maybe almost 10-18k depending on what it is that i get. But even if thoes goes down the hole and i get nothing, Ill probably still sell it after i finish paying off the rest of what I owe and get a 5th gen.

and you're going to want to mod it too. save some of the loot in case you crash again or for mods.

just cuz you got it don't mean you have to spend it.

 

oyea, i know, im not shure on how much i might recieve, but i plant to first put money on the side for the rest of my college, then my car, with some money still on the side for emergency's, i have it all written down in my little booky. I just hope this doesnt fall through.

coolness.. just keep your head on straight. if you're anything like me your goals and aspirations (at least automotively) change every ten seconds.

 

every 8....hehe
