Congrats on the Nordic Green 6 speed. Mine was a '69 Corvair that had 140 HP!

 

grats and welcome to the forum. Take care of your car, you'll love it

 

Good job on picking up one. My first car was a 91 Chevy Blazer. It was a piece, but I loved it anyway. I got my 8 when I turned 20 and have been happily married to it for 3 years now. I was surprised how cheap full coverage from state farm was for the car, especially with a 20 yr old as the driver.

Be sure to listen to what the elders on here say. Don't street race, be a bigger man than those that try to tempt you. We'd be lying if we said none of us ever played with people before. Please don't be stupid and end up like some kids a few months back that ran the car off an overpass and died. *anyone have the link to that story* Take care and congrats again!

 

if you TRULY bought it yourself and paid for it -- congrats on the hard work paying off.


I didnt have ANY car till my sophomore year in college (19 years old) and even then it was a beater Saturn.

 

haha my first car was a beater 95 eclipse RS... good luck w/ your new car and please...Drive Safe.

 

I got my Rx-7 when I was 15. 17 now. Take care of that Rx-8.

 

Danasoft FTL!

 

im 17, love the car. keep it clean, change the oil, take good care of it, and redline it once per day.

congrats

 

My first car was a '91 Nissan Sentra. It was awesome for beating up, I almost wish that I kept it, but I got in a fight with a guardrail on the highway and I lost.

 

Congratulations, when I was 17 (1999) i had an 88 chevy corscia ...it worked

Be nice to ur car and learn from the forum

 

I would just like to go on record as saying that this most likely isn't going to end well.

 

Got mine at 17. Just turned a year and one month of me having it and I have quite a few mods. If you wanna drive it fast, do it legally i.e. auto-xing. That's where the 8 really shines.

 

what he said...

 

Congrats on the new car. You 16 year olds are damn lucky. My first car was a 1981 Corolla which was previously my sister's car.

How much is insurance? Must be at least $2000/year.....

 

wow.

Your parents must not like you very much.

Good luck and drive safe!

 

You can drive in NJ when you're 16? Where the hell have I been?

If the car were in his name, insurance would be double that.

 

i wish i drove something like a rx8 when i was 16 .... i driving the family station wagon when i was 16

 

Welcome and safe driving.

 

well no.. you cannot drive in NJ until youre 17, but i turn 17 in less than a month.. so i thought id get on the whole buying a car thing, and i did it.

anyone know somewhere where i could buy clear corners??

Thanks, Brian

 

Woahhh....i am jelaous :P, we in Bosnia can drive a car only when we are 18, and you are 16, and you have my dream car...be careful with that baby

I wasn't even allowed to get my license until I was 18! '1986 Mazda B2000 pick up truck, manual transmission, power NOTHING.
