Well I just had mine advertized for 2 weeks and nobody even wanted to see it, I put it in the bargain finder for more money and got over 28 calls before lunch on thursday, sold that afternoon. Tell ur friend to put it in the bargain finder.

Get your parents to pay for your insurance! If my folks didn't pay for my insurance, I don't know what I would do! :thumbsup:

how much are you looking to spend? usually older turbo cars like the talon and 300zx aren't that reliable. only car i can think of is a nissan 240sx. stock it's not that fast but you can do a engine swap in the future.

I don't think max is 'spoiled'... he does work and that's just a bonus for working.

Well...by the looks of it, you might as well just go buy a car thats already knocked up nice and good. Your looking for an older car, but dont know about installs, maintinance or repairs, which is bound to happen sooner or later on cars older than the last 5 production years, and your not the one paying for it. You also dont want to pay for someone else to do the mods, so your options are pretty limited.

Scour the B. Finder for cars already "Souped Up", maybe check other Calgary based "For Sale" sections or maybe fortune will smile upon you and one will come along right here on beyond.ca

As for insurance, get used to it. At your age, it doesnt matter what you drive, its going to be high. My car is 18 years old, and I pay 213 dollars per year less on that, than I would on a New Jetta. It sucks...

:thumbsup: Anyways IHTH :thumbsup:
