I have never been this upset in my life...

Thanks, Intrepid. If what I said made any sense, it's only because I could relate to how you felt about this.

42

Man, sounds like you need to find a better car that a civic :eek: My first car was a '91 Camaro POS and what a car!! Now I'm rolling in a lightly modified Crown Vic, and loving every second behind the wheel :D Nothing like out driving all these ricers in my big fat American sedan (not too slow either :D ).

you were gonna pay 6gs for a 92...........dude what is your problem. There are a billion cars you can get that would be way better than that piece of shit. Just beacuse your mom wouldnt let you get one car you wanted you dont have to be a whiney bitch about it. sure it sucks, but just look for other cars in better condition. or for 6gs get some piece of shit and fix it up. God damn people who dont appreciate anything

1992 is pretty old. Anyway quit your bitching, your mommy is buying you a car, you are lucky no matter what it is. Go buy your own car, and then its your choice to buy a 13 year old overated car like a civic. Anway who really cares about the gauges or headlights? I see people driving around with a piece of shit like a civic all suped up and think, why not just buy a good car in the 1st place? Why spend a bunch of money on tacky aftermarket shit? All you need is a neon bar running underneath it and you will look exactly like all the other greasy boy band wanna be's i see driving around cranking their shitty music.

man what the fuck is ur problem dude?...seriously...

hold on a second.... was there no oil in the car? if so why? and I think that if your mom's buying it for you, it's her decision. the first car I got was from my parents. It was also a 1984 audi station wagon from hell but I didn't cancel my work shift because of the excessive sand in my vagina. seriously man.... I understand you're pissed but you have to learn to see from your parents perspective sometimes. If I saw a 92 civic and it had no oil in it to begin with, that would lead me to believe that the previous owner did not take care of it (especially when it's in this state upon delivery to you). Forget about it and but a 300zx turbo. then you have something to tear shit up with and it might have some oil in the crankcase.

You're depressed over not getting a car?

IT has some imported parts from Japan but it pretty much looks like your average Civic if not better. Anyway, so we took it to a garage to be looked at. Basically, the motherfuckers there had a few things to say. First of all, there was no oil in the car, so they thought there was an oil leak. There wasn't. Then they said that the suspension was too low and would destroy the car eventually. Well fucking morons, maybe it's because it's an aftermarket suspension? Many cars that come from the factory ride even lower. Also the owner of the garage told my mom that 6K (Canadian) isn't worth paying for a 1992 Civic. Well of course you're gonna say that if you are not aware of the fact that approx. 15K was spent on modifying the car!! To make things short, all this got into my mother's head in a very bad way and she decided that I can't get that car.

My life has been ruined...for now. I am really depressed. Don't gove me anything to make it sound like it's not bad or if it's my mom's decision since she's paying. The car was in excellent condition and there was absolutely no reason for us not to buy it. Instead, we had to send the guy back with the car and no money. I am not only upset about not getting the car, but generally about my mom being a terrible and inconsiderate person (and don't tell me she's not, you don't know her, and I do). This is something I've been looking forward to for MONTHS, and it was taken away from me when it was right in front of my eyes. The worst part is that I will not be able to find another car like it. I've already been searching for about an hour and I just don't see anything.

Anyway I'm going really off right now. I'm just really really really pissed right now. I actually went all the way to work and canceled my shift because I was in too bad of a mood to work. Basically, what happened to me is a terrible thing. I feel like I've lost so much today, I feel so helpless.

first thing, stop being a little pussy and grow the fuck up. you obviously dont know shit about imports cause you would know to NEVER to buy a car with parts on it from someone you dont know because most of the time the cars been ragged out like shit. and whats so special about this car that you wont be able to find another like it after searching for AN HOUR..? and plus you dont want to buy a car with work already done to it. you wanna be able to do the stuff yourself. unless your a big fucking poser or something and dont know shit about imports which is probably the case im sure with you. have a nice day.

okay you NEED to stop acting like you know what your talking about. cause from what i can tell you dont know shit. how do you know that the motor swap was a clean install. do you know if the motor is even legal? cause if you get caught with a stolen motor, guess what they are taking the motor from you and leaving you with a civic to push. like you say your on a budget, but are you going to be able to afford new tires every few months due to the bad camber caused by the lowering of the car? i bet you didnt know that short throw shifters often will grind down your synchros. hey got 2 grand to rebuild your transmission? and if your on such a budget why dont you just get a lil crx and jam a b16 into it. or do you not even know what im talking about or have the know how or ability to do so. stop being a poser.

Hey you coulda got the car and then this couldve happened.....

too bad its a civic. well i got a spoiler on my honda......yeah its pretty fast.

youll get over it. hopefully
