so today im supposedly going to get the parts that USPS failed to deliver to me the entire week though FedEX overnight.

will

if that ever happens.

so stupid.

I may not be able to survive long without a job, but for a 26 yr old, I feel I am doing pretty well for myself. So by the time I am as old as Dr. Ken-pa, I'll hopefully be able to retire. Every raise I get goes towards raising my 401k, I've got good company stock options, and always have fallback options. I'll be in even more financial clarity next year when the lease on the Civic ends and I can get an even cheaper beater DD.

I never could understand how a soccer mom with 3 kids and doesn't work while the father has long since disappeared can roll around in a BMW 335i

. Or they buy a sports/luxury car from 2001 with 200k miles on it and pretend to act rich since it's a "beemer" or porsche.

Pint! My GF is looking for a cheap hatch also. Under $240 a month and decent on gas. I've narrowed it down to the Chevy Sonic (she hates), Volvo C30 (she loves), Hyundai Veloster (I love), and the Ford Focus (meh). Have you had any luck on your end?

Negative. For some reason we would rather go out and watch movies than go car shopping lol. I like the look of the Volvo C30 and the Veloster. They both wouldn't work for me though. I guess by hatchback, I should have stated "wagon" since I'll need 4 doors.

Yea, both of those aren't really practical for everyday family needs. Older Subbie Impreza hatch? Although they'll be pricey. Cheapest I've seen is 18k with some rough miles on it.

I did test drove a Chevy Sonic RS a few days ago though just for the hell of it. The rear seats are a little to small, but perfect for kids. And it hauls rather well since it's lightweight. I found a 2014 LT version with 3k miles for 14k around me. So that's def a viable chea option for you to look into.

kenchan · 05-14-2015, 11:09 AM

how about a honda fit?

mine was $19K cash otd for the 5MT sport back 3yrs ago. no issues, extremely practical, and pretty fun to drive actually. i got swifts, tanabe muffler, and some generic 16x7 wheels with DWS. oh, and a double-din HU, intermittent wiper mod, some others. i cant remember.. like factory door sills, factory cf trim, factory leather knob, etc. which i added later.

kenchan · 05-14-2015, 11:12 AM

btw, i feel and look like a middle-aged loser while driving it.

oh wait

..but u guys are young.

Yea....I won't lie. I have way to much pride and ego to be caught dead in a Fit. I'm still in that state of mind that everyone is judging me based on the type of car I drive. Maybe in another 10 years I won't care as much haha.

I did buy the Z though because it was my first dream car. Was looking at either a WRX or Z. Had nothing to do with egotistical mentality. Although it is really really really nice being the only one in my city to own a Z.
