Your first mod should be to buy the 18" OEM rims. Otherwise it screams base level automatic.

Nice car for highschool though. I didn't buy a car till I was 19.

Yup. Don't even bother to remove them. Just put the pedal to the metal and watch them all fly away in the twisties.

you got good memory! I had but removed because it obviously was ugly.

Yeah my best friends threw on the streamers so I just took a laugh and drove!

of course, my next mod will be wheels (probably the black ones with blue lip) but depends on where I end up going for college.

I never got streamers on my car and im in highschool----then again i dont drive an auto. Kane is definitely right!
Anyways, your statement about getting wheels over going to college is ridiculous.

I dont think he means that big red, I think he means maybe if he is going to college he will get rims........if he doesn't, his parents most likely wont be buying it for him

That's becoming an increasingly popular color scheme for wheels...

At least I'm partially safe because I doubt anyone will pay as much as I did for a set of wheels.

Sorry for the confusion

I meant if I get into a instate school and actually go there (which I will be able to go for free) then I will get those lovely wheels.

If I go to a out-of-state school which will cost upwards of 40k per year.. then I will give up any mods in mind.

um. thats not true, i drove this in highschool last year (so did taj) nothing like that happened
and whats your point of making this thread?
to show everyone that your much younger than most 8 drivers?
whats up with all these posts nowadays, so many dumb threads posted with regarding age.
seriously? who cares?
if you got something to post, then post it!
why does age really matter? do you see some post saying "30 yr old with 8" and with no discussion but pictures...

Um.. I started this thread simply for entertainment purposes.

My best friends threw on the streamers, I wasn't "showing" I am younger than most 8 drivers or anything.

I was hoping some of you may get a laugh out of it, not flames!!
