gone are the days of parents buying or giving me cars. i finally bought one by myself since my daily beater broke. i mean ive bought cars with cash, but this is the first one that will affect my credit rating. this is the only picture i have available at the moment. 2003 AP1. 31k miles. just got home a lil while ago with it.

So basically you are saying your rich parents cut you off because they realize how pathetic you are. That's all I see in that post.

yeah. they cut me off and now i make my own dough.;)


btw- theyve never bought or given me a car valued more than $2500. they were just beaters for when my shit broke and they were upgrading.

Low mileage AP1. If its CPO I don't think he got ripped off.

Nice car. You'll enjoy every minute. Forget the haters and grats on your first purchase.

yeah. what everyone else said. except the dude above me, not sure what he's saying exactly??

good purchase! i'm sure you'll enjoy it. I just got mine last september with 75 miles on it and have already put on 19k. Do you have any plans for it or just play with it stock?

no powertrain plans until:
1-warranty expires because of:
a-100k miles
b-7 years since mfg. date(20010)
2-i finish paying it off.
and on a side note-theres nothing like a 100% stock car when you are going for the re-sale. if im looking for a car, i want it to be stock. mods lead me to believe its been ragged on.

however as far as cosmetics, i would love to put a nice set of wheels on. or a hard top. those are so sexy. but at the moment, the $ isnt there until i can sell my old DD or sell my bike. soon as i get in regular swing of making this big ass car note, i can see what is left over. on paper my budget plan looks great and theres a good bit of room, but i know at the end of the month the paper plan does not match actual spending.

i absolutely love to drive it, and find myself looking for any excuse to cruise somewhere. i get a lot of 'wtf' looks, although i am 21, i only look about 18.

and for the people saying i over paid-i looked at several on autotrader with similar specs. i offered what i thought it was worth and the dealer replied with carfaxes the autotrader ads i referred to, half of them had accidents, etc. this car has a 100% clean carfax, and they showed me it was a honda certified used car. and the warranty is still in effect for a long while. those small things make me sleep well at night. not a single scratch on it. it isnt like i paid sticker price($21k.) i started low and arrived at $18k.

defintely worth it.

just jealous cause all you can afford is an outdated Z car.

regardless of price, it is worth it to me. the point is i have the car, and it makes me happy. dont like it? i dont care.



everyone else was + repped. thanks guys.

nice car, and you seem like a cool guy reps

BUT i have to disagree with you on one thing and dont get your feelings hurt, its in bold. Anyone can afford a car when doing payments/credit as long as they have some what job. :2cents:

i get the wtf looks too. I'm 22 and driving a $30k car, not some old accord or jeep cherokee like a typical college student

before i bought the S, I had a Chrysler Crossfire convertible, 6speed. I definitely got more looks in that one, and a few flashes :)

thanks for all the positive feedback. i am enjoying the fuck out of this car and dont imagine driving anything else. spent a solid hour and a half waxing it and though it looks clean, i hate running my fingers down and finding dust a day or 2 later.

i got into my old dd the other day(right before i sold it-03 escort zx2) and it felt like i got into a damn minivan lol. shit felt so wrong compared to the ap1. i also test drove a 03 mustang GT. felt way too...loose? lol.

only thing i hate are the blindspots, and occasionally i bang my knees on something getting in or out. nothing being a little extra careful cant solve, though.
