mx6 4banger -> ????

[bigjbuff28]

im 16 at the moment and have a mazda mx6 4banger at the moment... to me having a nice car is one of the more important things...

people have told me about the integra type-r and GS-r and i was wondering if you guys think it would be a good second car to have and i have some questions first

-easy to maintain
-price of maintnence & performance parts
-reliability

jsut tell me what you think about the idea (good/bad) of this car as a second car

im working with a set income though $200 for car (ive already takin out fun $, gas $, and insureance $)

any HELPFUL opionions are greatly appreciated

how much do you pay?

i pay 180 for 2 way. 8) but i wish it was lower but what can i do im still young.

get an ls.

well

-easy to maintain: depends on the previous owner and you..
-price of maintnence & performance parts: if you know where to go and what to get.. not "oo i like this ima buy it".. gotta look for the best price
-reliability: i think it all depends on how you take care of your car.. if you dog the shit out of it everyday its not gonna last...

these are just my opinions.. im 17 and i think i should just get an LS and upgrade to a GSR later on...

you GSR haters! lol. i got mine when i was 16. im still glad with my choice. muahaha!

..I don't have my license yet... so I don't know. But my dad is currently the name on the plates, he's paying I think 2800 a year for Full Coverage.. and thats with him being on that Step9 shit, clean driving record, no tickets ever, no accidents and an alarm system. I will find out how much I have to pay in like a couple of weeks though.

if you have the funds to be able to maintain both cars go for it, and welcome to the club

i definitely if you can do two cars why not.
i've had 2 since i was 18, but it was alot of working and alot of el cheapo times if you know what i mean, parents never helped me out so i'm very satisfied with where i am now today.

[JimmyRos.]

not really. haha. but atleast the VTEC makes up for it. remember GSRatedR w/o his? that was hilarious. i havent been beaten by an LS yet so im crossing my fingers that i dont get outdriven anytime soon.

 

[bigjbuff28]

y not a gs-r???? and i have a 45% discount on my insurance cause of good grades and some book i filled out..

how much power (horse and torque) does each put out and which is more reliable

got my gsr when i was 16 and i love it...it's my baby and i treat it that way. All of my friends still make fun of me because i "never get on it" enough. I don't care it's my baby and i only use the power when i need to :lol: ....too bad the previous owner beat the shit out of it and now the rings are bad....sigh...o well at least it's in good hands now.
