ahh yes, the first ticket after buying into the 4th generation... I picked mine up in early May, and got my ticket June 16th, damn the man. I haven't paid it, it's a long story, but I'm going to contest it, court date's on the 1st of Oct, wish me luck! I hear ya though, I work for Enterprise Rent-A-Crap, pays only 8.25 (that whopping .25 came after 9 months of sweating my balls of cleaning their nasty cars ... thank the lord for appreciative employers... bastards) and I took a loan out to pay for part of my car, so I have payments, plus the insurance, that doesn't leave me with much fun money. I was determined to buy my cat-back at the end of August, it's now Sept. 15 and I'm still cringing while I drive with a new muffler, but a rusty b-pipe which groans at me in agony when I accelerate. It rebels by creating a boat load of back pressure as exhaust gas tries to escape through it's rusty hole where the b-pipe meets the muffler pipe... ahh, I had so much planned for my car, anyone have some good places in mind where I should apply for my next job?
