I was pushing the car a little too hard and the radiator blew up. Car ran without coolant and killed the engine.

Anyway, i'm not pissed or anything. If anything, i'm kinda glad. LOL. No more money pit.


Now i'm looking for a new car.

I've been driving a 98 BMW 328 Convertible for a couple of weeks now and i really like it. It's such a pimp car. The problem is that i only got a budget of $10k. heh.


I think i'm pretty much done with modding/tuning/upgrading sport cars. Now i'm kinda into the Luxury Performance & pimp factors.

Anyone got any recommendation for around $10k?

that sux, good luck on selling it not running. Shit, its hard to sale them when they are running. I understand how you feel though cuz I am contemplating on selling mine right now also and going to get a truck that way I get away from constantly putting money in a car for mods, etc.. I hate lifted and lowered trucks so I know I would oly be driving it instead of constantly turning wrenches on the weekends.

Driving the convertible bimmer for a couple of weeks has changed my way completely. lol.

I'm now have little interest in how fast a car can go anymore. lol.

I'm just now into the factory luxury performance & pimp factors. I swear, that bimmer got me ass faster than anything lol. Definitely attract attentions.

Looking back at it, i'm like why the hell do i keep putting money into the supra. it's just a money pit. You got better things to do with your money & time.


Right now i'm eyeing the Mercedez SLK230 Hardtop Convertible & the Bimmers. Too bad my budget is only $10k.

With 10k you can get a SC300 easily. Not a pristine 2000 model, but you can at least get a '97 in great condition. The Lexus name has always been associated with "Pimp cars" and they are affordable, very reliable, comfortable and very nice looking.
Save money from not modding, but buy rims and a stereo instead? :D
