Didn't get a camaro.

Hey all,

Many of you probably don't remember me... But I was thinking that I was going to buy a camaro, but I would have to be paying it off for 6 years, and that was too much for me.

Butttttttttttttttt, my mom is selling her car/truck and she says she wants to get a BMW. I told her to get a 2SS Camaro, cheaper than most BMW's. But I can't convince her, the only reason she won't is because she thinks that she would look like a loser in it. She thinks it a "Guy" car. Although I told her that lots of chicks drive this camaro.

Need some help for that hhaa.


But, I bought a 2006 RSX Type S. Its got 210 HP, not bad.

It's a pretty sweet car, my parents put in 5k and I paid the rest... well got a loan for the rest.


Heres she is...

At the end of the day we're all automotive enthusiasts. Guys clearly happy with his choice, though its not a camaro, its still a car that he is proud of.


Try to be a little positive.. besides, this is a Canadian section, least you can do when you come across the border is be a little more friendly.

That's still a sweet ride - just as long as you don't run into the over-rev bent crank problem that some were having

Looks like a sharp car minus that big wing on the back.

The kid bought what he can afford and got a cool car on top of that. He didnt buy over his head and have debt up to his eyeballs then forced to sell it like ive seen many times on these forums. You have to respect him for making a smart decision.
