how many cars have you gone through since you joined ia? seems like you go through cars fairly quickly.

Nothing wrong with an Eclipse. I'm not a personal fan of that model, but they can be done decently with the right parts. It'd start with wheels and a drop. :)

Hopefully I'm going to be questioned further, then I'll be set apart from the idiots I've encountered there. I mean they pay pretty nicely and it at least involves cars so I'm down for the job.

testing won't really do that, what will really set you apart is your sales, and advice to the customer. but what is starting pay over at autozone? pm me if you like. I'm makin about $8.50/hr.

I was told either 9 or 10 by friends that got jobs there but declined for some reason. Didn't really talk about it when I went in yesterday. Going in for my formal interview next week, I'm sure they will actually question me there. I just told them I've done a lot of work on cars myself, etc... Have the job but need to make it official I guess through the interview.

I thought the 3g's were also DSM up to 2005. :thinking: What year is that "whip"?

It was in reference to my thread in "car pics" which was in reference to the "is this youngn's whip?" thread.

I don't really call cars whips, lol.

As far as modding, this is just a daily driver, so the most it will get is a set of wheels. Probably just maintenance, better tires, and a really good clean-up.

Re-sale value bro, better on the 3g.
And if chicks like it, ok, they'll want to ride in it, and that's a bad thing?:ninja:
