Well, this is actually my second car, i own a 2002 Mazda protege5 (i paid for in full). I bought this car 3 weeks ago as a second car to play with, and have fallen in love with it. Oh yeah im 17 years old.... paid for both my cars my self, by working lots.
Anyways, I asked my friend who is a car dealer to look for a low milage, manual tranny, fun little sports car for me. He came up with a great silver 1993 Nissan Sentra Se-R, one owner (bought at this dealership, then traded in to get a new Sentra GXE) 37k miles (i already hit 40k), perfect inside and out. They were going to list it for sale at $5995, but i got ahold of it before they got to, and the dealer dropped it down to 4600 for me, so i couldnt pass her up... she's strong as she was new, and looks perfect, i love it. Here are some pictures of her:

I think that's the Slate Pearl Gray color, but I'm probably wrong. Sure doesn't look silver to me.

Thats one of the cleanest classics I've seen in a while, take care of her. And uh...if you think that is platinum silver, I have some jewelry you might be interested in...jk

well, ive liked cars since i was 10 or so, my parents realized i wanted a car someday, so since i worked alot for them, i slowly added up money in my bank account, and as i got older, i worked more for them... originally making a good some of money for my protege5, also over the last year i ended up paying the last 5k that i hadnt saved up off (i also manage to by some other things along the way that are expensive). Anyways though, i currently work 3 great jobs, two on and off, and one i spend alot of hours working... im just 17 and make enough to live off of.... but anyways i work for my parents at a insurance agency (once in a while, 7.50 an hour), at a mortuary doing computer work for a family friend (once a month or so, at 15 dollars an hour :) ), and my main full time job (part time once school starts) at a local recording studio as a co-studio technition (agghh i cant spell, its late sorry) which i make some good money.... that im gonna keep private though.

but this summer i decided to save and by a fun little car to go along with my p5, and i bougth this.... so welcome me to the club! a new SE-R owner

wow, thats awesome. i wish i were so lucky. i can't even afford to by an Se-r right now. but then again i'm not exactly working right now, due to the nature of my major i'm studying.

well thats still respectable, your learning is way more important than a car and a job. Once I go back to school next month ill be working a quarter of what i do now...

but life is busy as hell for me, today i was lucky enough to have the day off to do my first oil change on the SE-R (put in some mobile 1 synthetic, and a new oil filter) at 40,400 miles. And I changed the oil on my p5 (15k miles). And my dad was having fun doing his 3 cars...lol (well actually, my moms, his, and our classic) the 98 Regal GS (v6 supercharged, my moms car) my dads 95 Impala SS (you should know what that has in it :D ) and our classic/project car: 75 Buick Electra Limited (455c.i. V8, 2 door boat!) actually thats what he is out doing right now....

anyways, cya
