Well I was pushing carts last night (i work as a cashier but push carts when they are short of utility workers) and it drove up. Its sleek lines, vert self, and kick ass stock looks toment me because before I got my car I wanted a miata. Problem is this though my car has 228k miles on it, its got a 110 hp engine, and if I decided to keep it well lets face it the thing would need a paintjob.
If I keep my current job this summer I hope to make 3k but im talking to a guy that works at cingular wireless who makes 12+ commission about getting a job. (we are sorta friends I guess) Point of all this is that I was planning on getting a gt4 front end and getting my car repainted before school starts but honestly I am questioning this plan because I would have to dump 12 grand into my car before I was truely satisfied with it. Where as with a miata I *could* spend 5-6 grand when I graduate from highschool to get a lower mileage car that I love in its stock form (although I would kill for a 99 with a 6 speed but that doubles the price over a 97) Dunno what do you guys think (and while this is a celi site be reasonable lol) |

![]() You need to get into rehab man. That crack problem is making you think some impure thoughts of the beloved celica. Keep you ride, spend the money. The 6th gen is very rare. People always ask me (I'm debadged) what kinda of car is that. |
