It's that heavy slushy stuff too. We had 70 degree weather a week ago. God I want a garage already. My 2002 is becoming a pain in the ass.

I'm surprised it hasn't shanked you yet for not putting it in a garage.

I'm just south of DC, and it just stopped. April 1st isn't until Tuesday, WTF was that?

I was driving back from Charles Town and there were some big flakes coming down in the mountain.

I feel terrible, I bought it two years ago when I was 17. Damn this was perfect, California car with only signs of rust. Now it's been outside in the elements for two years just deteriorating and I feel really stupid. My mom will hopefully buy a house with a 2 car garage next month, but I'm a college student with no money. I sort of want to sell it (bought for $10.3) and buy a cheaper one and add stuff to it as I can afford it. I found this one today. Just put in a five speed, take off the awful bumpers, new seats, and get a front airdam.

I've been sitting in the house doing work. It wasn't until my mom called me, and eventually asked if I looked out the window, that I realized it was snowing. I just want June with it's 10500 degree weather and 900% humidity. I want car show weather.

I'm afraid we're going to go from this directly to summer oppression. Do no pass spring, do not collect 70 degrees

I feel really bad for the car, but if you can sell it without a loss and get that one (which is pretty good), then it seems worth it.

I'm torn. the car just turned 73K original miles, the car is very original, but that's why I paid what I did. Unfortunately, being 19 and stupid, I want to go faster and not have to worry about the originality of my car and it's condition. I will still take very good care of it, but I don't want to cry every time it rains. I can easily find a nice one for 6 or 7 that I could have fun with. Hopefully I can clean it up this summer and sell it. Then on to the next one.

Another reason I want to sell, is my mechanic. He told me not to ruin the car since it's the most original one he's seen. He's had over 15 of them and knows his stuff. I went to see him on friday ad he bought a new one, basically a shell that was sitting on goodyear slicks and a motor with 185hp. At that moment, I knew I wanted to get something that could go. Don't need 185hp, but a stiffer suspension and +30-40 hp would be nice. Also real tires.

Damn you must be conflicted as fuck! Ugh I can't even think about the decisions you're going to have to make. You should make a post to see what others think. I can't be the only one with an opinion on this.

I will, but tomorrow, when people are actually on here.

Yeah, for some reason oppo is always dead on the weekends. I have a feeling oppo is used exclusively for procrastination in the workplace.

I have the same theory. Myself, I am able to procrastinate all days of the week.

If you read my conversation with Brian you can see why I want to sell. It would only be to buy another. I'm in college and would like to actually have cash. But, I will post about that tomorrow or sometime this week. As for the snow. . .

Kinja'd!!!

As am I! Being a college student has it's advantages (or disadvantages, depending on how you look at it).

I did read with my brain and my heart. My father had a 2002 when he first came to America. He pulled a orange one out of a junkyard for $500 and rebuilt and repainted (White) it with my mom. I never did get to see it in person. i was not even a thought in my parents mind yet.

I'm confused. I see a car with greater potential for $4k less and I see my first car currently sitting in the snow with a cover on. It has a broken muffler, bad brakes, and runs on three cylinders currently. I'm going to fix all of that, in the next week or two, but it doesn't mean I shouldn't look at my options. College isn't cheap and the money would be helpful.

Go with what you feel.
