ya you have to be 18 but can usually get away with it. when me and my friend were 17 we would drive down stevens creek auto row and stop at every couple dealerships. i test drove new and used cars no questions asked, except they get a copy of ur license before u go on one, so if they read it they might not let you but like i said i had no problem test driving 30k dollar cars.

Does anyone know anyone who might be interested? If someone here send me a referral, I can get them Suby factory stuff at my employee cost.

Thanks,

Ray,

Thanks for spending some time with me on that yesterday.

I'm now going to start saving up for a down payment for whatever car i do decide to get. ive got 311.04 in the bank as of today.

My parents said if I get 10g for a down payment they will cosign with me.
I told my boss im trying to do extra good work now so i can get a raise or something and hopefully start my managers training soon so i can make more money.
He said I've earned a raise and he will talk with his boss

I showed the WRX brochure you gave me to my friend, and she almost feel apart at how awesome it was.
I can't scan it like you asked me to do if i could, but ill try and get some pictures of it to post later.

Thanks again.

Phil.

I got a ride in a spicy orange one yesterday. It handled those corners AWESOMELY (is that a word

) Well, considering the person who was driving, I'm glad the brakes worked well too

Yup! For the price the MazdaSpeed Protege is a steal. Great sound system, brakes, 17" Racing Harts on it, a small turbo and small intercooler. Imagine how it would be with a larger turbo and intercooler.

I know it's not a WRX, but I think it would be a cool commuter.
