yeah after thinking about it i might go with a scion tc, and when im 18 go for an rx8. thanks everybody

I think you should look into the new SI's or Older rsx type s, ( 05-06 model ). Huge aftermarket on those compared to tc, well the rsx at least.

Thats just my opinion though, i'm not exactly a toyota guy so maybe a little biased but give them a look will ya ?

As for the 8, reading all this is making me think twice about picking one up next month T.T

jus hit 18 :p:

It's rather very simple...drive it...if you like it and can financially afford it...then get it...

Ultimately your own life (and possibly others) are in your hands...whatever you do is your choice...but make up your own mind...

I'll agree with you the RSX is probably a no-brainer funmobile...cheap, fast, and right in the HS budget...

chetrickerman 11-05-2007 04:49 PM

and its easy to run away from the cops in that car, i would know

eviltwinkie 11-05-2007 04:51 PM

But if you absolutely positively have to pull a J Turn and pwn teh twisties...drop the "S" and subtract an 8....

Heh...

chetrickerman 11-05-2007 04:52 PM

yes, for sure

Give me the money ill put it to better use. :Peace:

Personally i dont think any 16 year old needs a car capable of going 160ish. You drive things like that punk kid in Fast and Furious 3. He wrecked every car he drove. haha

are you talking about the dude who was fishing or some shit ?

lol, if thats the case, you know who that dude is? he is one of the fastest drifter in the whole Japan, they call him God of Drifting or something there.

+Listen...drifting is a lame ass sport...I'm embarrassed that it is even considering a type of racing! It WAS cool until everybody started to do it in their neighborhoods with their mom's sedan, or their Honda Civic custom fitted with a fart can...And the Movie made it worse! No one goes around drifting while being chased by another car...I've never seen the movie, in fact I only saw the first one, and it was cool, until everybody started copying the movie. My point? DRIFTING SUCKS! FAST AND THE FURIOUS MOVIES SUCK TOO!

chetrickerman 11-06-2007 11:19 AM

hey, i like the first one.

BlackRX82006 11-06-2007 11:24 AM

I wasn't knocking off the first one, It wasn't bad, but the new ones suck

chetrickerman 11-06-2007 11:28 AM

tokyo drift just seems really tacky, but the women are smokin, i dont like how they make the 8 in that movie look though.

usmc320 11-07-2007 08:12 AM

Fast and Furious is gay. The first one is the only one I saw and it had the worst acting I've ever seen in a movie that went to theaters.

How the fuck could you possibly know they suck if you have never seen them? :banghead:

http://z.about.com/d/politicalhumor/...s_strength.jpg



I don't think the movies sucked. eah, they weren't great, or anywhere near, but they weren't horrible. I will agree with the aftermath of the movies completely sucking though.

Aero8 11-07-2007 10:13 AM

To the OP.

Oil - As others have said, check you oil regularly, but not everytime you fill up.

Insurance is going to be higher than any beater you could get, but if you have the money then go for it.

Reliability - Again, as others have said, take care of it and it will be fine.


My two cents...My first vehicle was a full size rwd chevy pickup. I loved it. RWD can be more difficult at times, but I like the control that isn't there with fwd cars. As someone said early, you can still turn if you are sliding, as opposed to fwd where you just turn the wheels and hope for the best.

The only reason I would recommend against the rx8 is the insurance depedning on the type of discounts you can get. Some require 3 years of accident free before they are applied. If you don't have the money, wait a few years until you can get more discounts.(an lower rates in general)

ocrapitzleon 11-07-2007 10:21 AM

honestly, everyone's perspectives are very different, coming from different families is the key point. so when asking about opinion, there will be contrastive feedbacks.
therefore, my personal input is: if you are capable of paying for all the payments (mainly insurance and gas) then why not get an 8?

Hattori 11-07-2007 11:05 AM

People destroying the the so called fad is what sucks. Personally i like the S15's and the RX7 in the movie. The movie wasnt the best but it was about the cars mostly.

Rems31 11-07-2007 11:08 AM

I liked the movies cuz it's one of those where u can just sit down and not think...dont have to worry about the plot, acting, etc... :lol2:

Hattori 11-07-2007 11:11 AM

Yeah well when its a movie about cars you really dont need much of a story. Like part two tried to have a little more story and imo sucked the most out of all three.

yup, two sucked the most, but the cars in those movies were really nice. but some were tacky.

tajabaho1 11-07-2007 01:32 PM

I think fast and the furious is a good marketing movie to attract alot of teenagers

however, thge movie it's self doesn't make sense, and the epitome of car movies that doesn't make sense = Redline

its all about cars, and I dont really give a fuck what happens except when they race

the fast and the furious is retarded in so many ways it would gobble up this entire website in goo

in my personal opinion, WTF is that push a button for NAWSS shit? no one uses that anymore! no one even WANTS to use that! we have solenoids, it is auto injected once armed and WOT

nitrous doesn't hit u in the seat and propel ur car to 500pounds of torque
nitrous doesn't blur shit around u
you don't drift while someone is chasing u because ur car is lossing speed during drift and it is faster to just fucking turn
fucking plot sucks
police aren't stupid
police don't chase u and die
police have cameroes, not tin cans
police have helicoptors that will get ur license plate and track u down to the end of the world
police have road blocks
police deploy spikes
police dont give up chase that easily
...........................there are so many more

That's not true...i was playing mario kart DS today and if you drift properly you get a speed boost at the end of the drift... :lol2:

Spinning Sushi 11-07-2007 02:03 PM

I've only played the one for N64. If you drift right, the smoke from the drift will turn red and then you get a speed of boost too!

Rems31 11-07-2007 02:05 PM

yea that's the same one for the DS! See so F&F is right!! hahaha

Hattori 11-07-2007 02:19 PM

lol drift boost ftw!!!!!
