[quote name='Rob x-7' date='Jul 18 2005, 03:38 PM']its funny that some people equate a $12000 used car with some sort of status

most common comment regarding someone owning a FC verus a FD:

you cant afford one so you dont like them



so therefore I say that some people equate a FD with some sort of status





I dont equate any 10-15 year old car with any status

SC300 power! Isn't that what its called?



Hey BTW: that guy who drives the silver 350 gets on my nerves. Ya know the guy...has a gotee and knows everything about everything. You missed an interesting story he had the other night. I was talking with someone else but caught the tailend. It ended with "no offense but the guy was (pointing at me) his size". He drives like a douchebag too.

If I could afford an ultima GTR or cobra kit car I'd buy one in a second. Its not that I think of it as a status symbol, I just love the way they look, sound, and perform. I don't give a rats *** if people like my FD, my mini's, or anything else I own. I enjoy them because its what I like.

if I didnt own my car for so long I would get rid of it, I guess im attatched to the thing



I was eyeballing a cobra replica in the local paper for sale



also thinking of getting rid of the vert and the lexus and buying one car that I will enjoy driving everyday- then getting rid of in 3-4 years when I get tired of it



Seems stupid to keep a car in the garage all the time just to drive something mediocore daily.

Being serious... Yeah, I wouldn't mind having an FC to use as a daily beater or something. But if I owned one and it just sat there and never got any use while I paid insurance on it, I'd sell it too. The only kinda cars I would own and never drive would be something collectable, show worthy, or something I just absolutly love to drive from time to time.
