[QUOTE=theJunkman;1701781]I’m going to do you a huge solid. Based on the fact that I’ve been here awhile and people think I a HUGE asshole, which I usually am, I am going to give back to the community on this one. I’m going to throw out a guess here and assume that you’re in the 15-20 age bracket as opposed to the 21+ set. Take all of the performance mods off of you car and sell them locally , here or on ebay. Take the money and put it either into a paypal money market or ING checking account. Dont touch it. Drive a stock car. Save the money you would have wasted on playing pimp my ride the home game and add it to the money in the paypal money market or ING direct account. Continue NOT to touch the money and add alittle bit to it as often as you can. Attain the highest level of education you can afford all the while adding to the money in the account you;ve set up by NOT pimping your ride.
After a few years use the money to move out of your parents house. Start a new life . Buy a decent car.[/QUOTE]
WOW…That’s a really really really good advice. That’s the best thing I’ve read on G2IC in a while. I’m not in ericbp2b situation by any means, but that’s one thing people especially in our age group fail to realize…If you save from now, you can be very wealthy in the future. I too have open an ING account and a HSBC account like 4 months ago…Let’s not get carried away here, but traditional banks in your and my neighborhood yield only .3% interest while these online Savings/Checking(ING) account can generate 10 times more (5-6% interest). Anyways, back on topic…I personally would drive the Teg stock or just sell it and get a Legend. Those things come pimp from the factory. You can’t get in too much trouble with those things… They’re very heavy.
i would like to see someone render a photoshop image of a DA “VIP” style, that would be hilarious!
Save your money kid. Leave it stock and clean. you’ll get just as much respect as a built street car or a JDM car. Cleaniness is always a good thing in an older car…BUT PLEASE DONT RUIN A TEG!!! BTW…Thomas, thanx for coming by the meet a few weeks ago. i know it was a long drive.
BacardiBreezer FTW!:rockon: lol, but yeah nothing can change the fact that you did it. ill admit that i street raced a couple of times about 2-3 years ago when i was a noob. i was also a ricer lol and i was stupid and made bad decisions that could have hurt/killed me and/or others. so learn from your mistakes and KNOCK IT OFF!
Mang, none of that shiet you put is “VIP style”, IF you really want to go VIP, 19" deep dish, crazy mad offset wheels, natural widebody, maybe a modified mugen kit…all leather interior, nice sound setup…like this…
why not make it “all show, no go?” but without the VIP style thing.
Just do all the things to make it look nice and be real clean. then by the time your done with that you wont live with mom anymore and u can do a motor swap and make it something worth racing (street or track, i dont care).
