How much is 8000,- of your currency converted to USD? ~$ It isn't Krona is it?

You should just keep one in hibernation, till you can afford it later

$1 = ~5,5 NOK also Norwegian, Swedish, Icelandic, Faroese and Danish Krona have different values For 2000,- in Norway you can get a good graphics card For 2000,- in Iceland you can get ...power cord

I make less than you did. everything in america is money

[QUOTE=BldrGyMnGy;34114352]I make less than you did. everything in america is money[/QUOTE] Your gas prices are a joke though

here are my monies shit - 120 insurance (family thing through Mercury) - 30 Disneyland Delux Pass (I go almost 2 times a week, I grew up there, it reminds me of YE GOOD OLD DAYS) - 60 phone bill - No rent, 18 living with parents - 13 gallon gas tank, running EXTREMELY rich because of my carb (still haven't installed my weber), driving back and forth to work is about 30 a week. + 450 paycheck every 2 weeks - 10 for spotify premium (no iPod) that's all I remember at the moment.

My driving test is this week, and I would like some tips.. apart from "Don't fuck up" :v: please? :(

Stay calm, I was insanely nervous the few days before, day of, just chill. Honestly, look at idiots that you may know that passed. You ARE better than them. You are alpha.

They were the things I got minors for. Don't get disheartened if the examiner fails you, and best of luck.

Spent literally half the test parallel parking. No wonder I passed first time. There was no opportunity to fail me >:D

Just stay relaxed and focused. In my country some people say, that some examiners fail you automaticly the first time, but it seems like I got a really good examiner. I forgot to use the turn signal on a parking lot, but at the end of my test the examiner asked me, what do we have to use on a parking lot. I answered "turn signals" and I passed the test.

I think we should have a thread for designing our own cars, on paper or in a modeling program, or simply fitting them in a game like gt5 or forza or something.

for now anything I come up with will go in here until we have content for a thread that wont die.

So many people are telling me not to get a bmw(e46) so i've been looking at a lexus is300 i've heard they have great potential for modding and i've found one that looks pretty interesting. Idk, how they are maintenance wise against bmw. Could someone provide some insight?

Drove my Jato for the first time in 5 years today. Fucker is [I]fast.[/I] Damn rear shocks leaked out ALL the oil in them, so it's bouncy :\ But It can pop wheelies and does 0-60 in about 3 seconds. Once it hits second gear it's fucking gone.

Might be going for my drivers test tomorrow, right on my birthday. Pretty confident I'll pass, when I did drivers training through AMA my teacher took me through the route that I would have gone if I go to this one registry place and it seems pretty easy. Going to be doing it in my moms Furd Exploder.

Good luck!

I had the best day, In car history. I got to drive a VW GTI Fahrenheit. Manual! Oh my god. It was Mango Orange, every thing on that car was orange. So beautiful. I only got to drive it around the parking lot, doing 70 mph. :v: Thin he sayed let's swap. And my lord. We got on the interstate. All the orange on the car turned white. I. came. everywhere.

Forgive my /o/, for I have sinned. It's been more than 5000 miles since I changed my oil :>

I hate to say it (aka i don't know what the fuck i'm talking about) but I don't change mine every 3,000. Last oil change I did was 7k between and the oil, while obviously dirty, wasn't anywhere near what it could've been. If I had taken the oil out after 300 miles and compared it to the oil after 7k it would've looked the same.

[QUOTE=Super_Noodle;34122409]Forgive my /o/, for I have sinned. It's been more than 5000 miles since I changed my oil :>[/QUOTE] I usually change mine every 3K, but I've been lazy lately and haven't changed mine for at least 7k. Poor thing hasn't had a car wash since August.

I should put the tranny cover back on in my truck, i dont think all this unfiltered murrica fumes is good for me [editline]9th January 2012[/editline] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCj289aFjcg[/media] I didnt rev it much again Guess im camera shy.

Popped the bonnet and cleaned everything in the engine bay. I love my car... Hahaa

I really used to baby it until I got into an accident, after that and the weather got cold I just stopped caring, which is sad really. I just can't find the motivation to give it a wash after all the rust keeps coming back :(
