I always see you guys racing all these new expensive cars.. just wondering how old everyone here is. I'm 20 and it would take me a few years to save up for some of these cars that you guys have.

My name is Duncan McCloud of the clan McCloud, I was born in the Highlands of Scottland in 1552 A.D. I am 454 years old, I am immortal and I cannot die.
I await the time of the quickening when we shall all meet, in the end
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!
*enter "Prince's of the universe" by Queen song*

Im 26 and until this year I got the GTO.
Before that I had a 94 3000GT that I got for like 6K, I put down 1K and financed 5.

22 im buying a new car, not really an expensive car. My current car is only worth about 7G. My family owns a Pizza Restaurant that does pretty well. I manage it for them, and will prolly own it in a few years. Once i own it expect to see me driving nice cars. Untill then im jsut a poor college kid, well not really cause i cant find a purpose for me in college. I dont want a college job. Ohh boy im babling, ill stop.

True college is really sucking up money for me.. no time to work, and books are expensive..

Just tried to buy a bike.. turns out the guy couldn't get the lien off and is supposed to be returning my 2900 in return for the bike back. Might just start saving for a new car.

well they dont own a restaurant in dearborn. Pizza King in dearborn, the one on outer drive my father worked at when he was like 17, when he was 19 he opened his own store is Lincoln Park. They also used to own the Pizza King that was in Dearborn Heights on Telegraph road between Gulley and Beach Daily. But they sold that one a while ago. Now they just own the one in Lincoln Park.

Yeah, lol.

I had never financed anything before but I had credit cards adn what not. Anyways, I told the dealership that I wouldnt buy the truck if I had to have a cosigner. And I never had to have a cosigner, lol. And it was because of my credit score.

07-23-2006, 11:41 PM
hmm. so much for credit score. im 17. got the car from saving since 7th grade. selling candy bars everyday, taking in 50 bucks a day was fun. my car was 7k. so much for a rich car. now all i do is save the cash and wait till i can grab a better job and move out and head to college.

25, will be 26 on Dec 9th.

I bought the truck in 1999 through summer jobs and working everyday after lunch during highschool. I worked as a farm hand, so I always made alot of long hours, 7 days a week. I paid the truck off in college, then started using money I was paying on the truck for mod money. It has taken me from 1999 until now to get the truck where I wanted it. I also bought a $1000 Olds Cutlass last year to help keep me in a vehicle when the truck would occasionally break.
After college, I got a job as a chemical warehouse manager and as a reward to myself for the good grades paying for school, I sold the Olds and got the Camaro SS. Now I'm modding the hell out of it until I get married in January. :grinyes:
