it's not new..... it's an 00 sheesh

 

It's okay. Don't sweat the other guys telling you that you're too young to drive a new car. I've learned to drive and also been driving my dad's 1998 Lincoln Navigator until I got my Accord. And this was back in the day when the Navigator was new and nobody had one. Pulling up to gas stations and having people say "hey...nice car" feels pretty damn good, especially when you're 16 rolling a new Nav with chrome rims on it (the only problem is that i'm asian).

In between the Navigator and Accord, I drove a beater (1993 Ford Tempo, 86 hp, 3-speed automatic) for 3-4 months before I got (my parents got) my Accords. I was barely 16 when I got my sedan and then they bought a coupe three weeks later.

Anyway, $5000 seems a little too much. Look for a couple more quotes or shop around for the parts individually yourself. You can save yourself at least a grand IMO.

 

yeah i found some cut prices
my total now stands at 4000

 

heh that's pretty tight driving a nav around when it just came out

 

Jeez, you spoiled california kids =)

Man, it must be nice, I'm 21 now and I haven't driven a car newer than 8 years old since i started. . .

I agree with some of the other members though, its nice to have it if you can, I also think you should pass on modding anything until you've learned to drive competently. A couple of years of experience may save you a lot of dings on that 5,000 dollars worth of mods.

 

i like the WW kit... but i dunno if i wanna spend 5k on my car... i'm gonna start saving up for a newer car....

not to be a thread ho, have you seen the new nav? dayum... talk about motorized EVERYTHING..... domestic SUVs own

 

Jesus when I was 15 I didn't know what 5,000 dollars let alone 1,000 dollars looked like.

But you might just be one of those kids who plans all this stuff out and never does it cause you can't get all the money.

Dont spend your teenage years spending all your money on your car. Its not worth it.

 

Lemme tell you, the temptation is great sometimes. But parents keep you in line. I'm 18, and the $9,000 sitting in my savings account is crying to be blown on my ride. But I gotta be realistic. Maybe his uncle is gonna pay for his mods, too, since he already gave him the car!

 

nope i'm not one of those planners then don't do people
i'm really gonna mod it and i can get all the cash in about a year or less whoever said wasting teenage years on my car was bad? i'm not gonna waste anything i have everything planned out on when to get what so it's all good plus the rim's i 've gone rota subzero's they cost major less but the tires aren;t included so now i gotta do some tire shopping. here's the link to the subs

how the hell did u only pay that much , what kind of 18s, the stereo is stock if hes gettin a full system its around 1000, and then your hks muffler prob cost u around 150 and then anouther 150 for the piping, meanwhile a greddy catback goes for around 500 so thats where the diff comes from
thats just my $.02 i spent around 7 so far kuz of my choice of rims that cost me around 2g's n then my systemran me around 1200 with a huge discount kuz i sell the ****.
