How do these kids afford it?

[Dpres1]

This is the line up in front of the shop every morning. We have nicer rides than the owners. They always say " We don't pay you guys that much". Don't trip!


And yes, the Civic is fast........and furious!


'03 Lightning , '00 Civic, '98 Z28, '98 Cobra. All of us are 21 and under and none of us are spoiled brats. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears....and damn proud of it!!

Ok not to be a dick cheese but does this post have a point?

 

[Ram Rod]

Um, get a better camera god thats horrible. :xpl:

 

[Dpres1]

Not at all!! Just bored and figured I'd post a pic. I hope it doesn't seem like I think I'm a baller or anything. Just wanted to see what people thought of us youngsters rides. :shrug:

 

[Dpres1]

As for the pic quality, it was at night w/ poor lighting to boot and then had to be "enhanced" which obviously didn't help.

Dpres1,

I see that you are from my neck of the woods, well kind of, I am in the South Bay, but I see many young folks around in very expensive cars. I think in this area there is still a lot of dotcom money floating around. Hell I look out at the lot at my work and see 2 Ferraris, a Lotus, a Mercedes SL500, and many Porsches, etc. There's even a guy with a McClaren but he rarely drives it. It seems kind of wierd to be driving a 2003 Cobra to work and it being one of the middle of the road cars.

I remember when things were really booming here in Silicon Valley a few years back I used to see all sorts of high end exotics. Heck, we took a drive out on Hwy 1 to Big Sur 3 weeks ago and counted 6 Ferraris on the road.

Keep that pic. None of you guys will believe it 15 years from now when you are all married, with children, under a mortgage, and driving around in Accord sedans.:-D

J/k.

The pic brought back some memories.

Good to see the younger generation still knows how to have fun!

I always get shit for getting a white one! But I could drive side by side w/ a red L and guess who's gettin pulled over... YOU!! Cops don't look twice at it and it's easy to keep clean. I love it.

 

[ezernut9mm]

[Dpres1]

Oh that, yeah it happened to me once too. All that marines stuff is now etched into my memory.

 

[Sailing2Smth]
