I recently went from my 94 celi st, to a POS 91 civic dx hatch (long story), to an 02 Mazda Protege dx. I really like the protege and it only has about 40k miles on it, but i miss having a celica. My sister now has my old celica and wont give it back, but my parents told me if I wanted they might take over payments on the Protege and let me buy whatever I wanted...I have to make the payments though. Should I get a bit older car that I can fix up or stick with the reliable fairly new car thats nice, but I cant do that much to it to make it look more like something I'd drive. I'm not really a sedan kind of guy. I mostly got the protege out of the necessity of getting myself the |-|3|_|_ out of the civic.
Thanx for the help.
