Apparently, I have to wiat until september (when I am 18) to buy anotehr car...

What do I do in this situation? By then I will have 8-9k...

Do I buy a 2g and leave it mostly stock
or
Do I buy a 1g and use the leftover money to mod?


I don't really have a preference of 1g or 2g... So that doesn't matter.
 
if you didnt care about looks and just wanted a awesome car, 1g all the way. with 8-9k you could find a kick butt 1g for under half that. that leaves you with a lot left over to do the misc maintanence and plenty money left to make a quick dsm.
 
With that much money you could easily get a 2g and have a few thousand to throw around mod-wise.

My vote still goes to the 1g though :)
 
Thats not really a call we can make. And I dont buy modded cars. Never have never will

I wouldn't buy it modded, but I figure with 8-9k you could make a pretty damn decent 1g...
 
early 2g's can be had for fairly cheap leaving you plenty of extra cash to go buck wild

Exactly!
 
2g gets my vote. I like my 1g and all, but a newer car would be preferable. Plus, you can get one and still have plenty left over to mod it somewhat. But I would do all the maintenance instead.
 
Well, I think if I get a 2g it can be either FWD or AWD...

But I would prefer AWD.... I am not too picky, I just want a clean body. If it's a 2g a 6 bolt will be in its future...
