Well im glad you seem to have settled on Lee's car Rob. Im sorry that you got the impression that my car was sold at the time you PM'd me. Had you offered 3k at that time the car would have been yours, but your PM made it sound to me like you were not completely sure you were interested in buying an EG hatch. Anyway, Lee had a hell of a wrx, and im sure if you can reasonably come up with the funds you wont regret your purchase

Buy the WRX, remove the cat and any other emissions stuff... Job security for Feersty. :lol: Seriously though, if you do get yourself some boost just be careful. SRT-4's, EVOs, and WRXs get a lot of people killed. All that power...mmmm...stock.

No not at all, just tired of people saying I can't handle the speed of the car and that I will get in a wreck. I am still very much interested and I am transferring funds as we speak.

so you don't have to live off ramen noodles and at home for the next five years: a common rule of thumb is to not spend more than 1/3 of your annual income (pretax) on a vehicle.
sorry lee, as much as it may appear i hate rob, we do actually get along, and i couldn't let him spend that much money without a warning.

Even 1/3 on just the car is too much - even if you add insurance and maintenance into that figure, 1/3 is s till too high. I make decent money but I'm capping my truck budget at $10k. I could go in and buy a brand new F150, but I'd rather have $$ for other things.
12-12-2005, 11:20 AM
kind of agreed. i'm doing the 1/3 thing and when i move out i'll still only be about breaking even every month unless i seriously curb my spending habits.
