oh, but the withdrawls started the second my car drove away. but, the vw is like a anti-dsm patch for me. so, hopefully i will be able to fight this addiction. lol

the thing about dsms are they are 10-15 yr old cars.. I expect something to fall apart if its that old.. especially if someone that owned it before you didn't know what they were doing and didn't do the routine maintenence

Out of the frying pan and into the fire if you ask me.

I give it a month before you post a thread about an electrical problem or a window falling off its tracks and into your door.

But cam it, chip it, and drop it and it will be fun.

I'd get a bigger turbo If i were you. one of those k04's! and then turn the bypass valve around so you get that barely audible "chirp" that is so desirable. If you rim it up, get 19's and make sure they have at least 2.5 kittens of dish.

The above two posts are a prime case of; "Double SQ ownage!"

Truckmotor!

Congrats on the new car. Not my thing but if it makes you happy, do it.

Sorry for going off topic but name three sports car you can buy at 3K and is in top running condition without money being put into it. Honda's are not sports car excluding the S2K(which you can't pick up for 3K).

Ha Ha double post.

You all know what though........ nothing pulls like a dsm!!! Thats why some of you get sucked back in it!! You can go buy another newer car but in time you will still spend money no matter what, thats why I've chose to stick with my dsm. I bought my car for $2,000 and I've put about $8,000 in it and it still doesn't equal up to a new car, plus all the mods you want to put in the new car!! Dsm for life!!

Not to really dig this thread up, but id just like to say... I beat Sway's GTI. Its a nice car, but it doesnt compete against AWD.

spoken like a true DSM'r "a trip to home depot"...Nice car by way..i still wish you would have sold that talon to me!

sleepydsm · 03-30-2006

I hate my dsm because it's red, and I don't want a DSM anymore because of the stupid little problems that happen. My car has been very reliable, and the only thing that happened was the tranny blew up (thats expected haha). I actually have a pretty nice 1g, and I want to sell it! But, everytime some 10 yr old kid in his brand new Ion Redline pulls up, I LOVE having a 1G. Seriously I can't think of a car this fun, and quick, for the money (when it works). So yeah basically racing people in their camaro's or stangs or shitty cars makes it all worthwhile. Until the guy in the beautiful S4 drives past you... and you go "daaaaaaaaammmmmnnn, thats nice. too bad its slow."

Sleeper, didn't you buy Terry's Caddy? HAHAHAHAHA

Something about that sounds a little suspicious.
