Your Car
So what kind of car did you get when you turned 16?
What kind of car do you have now? I am so excited. My parents got me a 2001 saturn with 48,000 miles on it, no damage, and gently used. Its basically like a new car! Well... to me anyways. I'm only 15 but i turn 16 in 4 months. Post a picture if you have one!!
nice car. my parents said they where gonna make me drive the Tarus for 6 months before i could get a nice car. because my sister totaled the Grand Prix
I didn't get a car. You lucky piece of flesh, bones, and other various bodily materials!
I bought, and still drive, my 79 Ford. I've put a few thousand dollers into it and much has changed but it's still basically the same. A few cars have come and gone in between but I've always had this.

ompompomp.
I *did* get a car for my sixteenth birthday a couple of weeks ago
V. pretty, phil^_^ *likes cars if they're pretty*
*is such a chick*
Anyways, I haven't taken any picture of mine yet (my digicam's batteries=dead) but it's a silver 2003 chevy cavalier. Got it from the wholesaler's lot, used. it had really reflective tinted windows, but they took that off, since it probably wasn't legal-_-
it's pretty and awesome and miles better than the other cars we have. (87 chevy pickup, 94 blazer, 95 chevy van of some sort, and a 97 chevy truck of some other size.)
yay chevy.
*will post pictures when she steals her mom's new camera*
Didn't get a car when I was 16. I'm 19 now, and still haven't ever had a car, and honestly, I don't want a car. In fact, if someone gave me one, I probably wouldn't accept it, or I'd sell it ASAP. Why? Because cars suck and I hate them. They're a world of trouble, they cause far more pollution than needed, they kill people constantly, and they cost a crapload of money, and then after you buy it, you always have to spend more money on gas(which is out of control and monopolized) and all the other fluids to keep it running, and insurance, and all the crap thats constantly breaking on them atleast every month.
But yeah...you know that walking thing people used to do...I do that. The day cars are built to last and are clean burning/no burning, then I'll think about getting one if the prices aren't insane.
I like Kung-Fu.
I don't like people who get cars from their parents. Also, in many countries, you have to be 18 in order to get a drivers license. Saying 16 pretty much rules out half of the world. :]
Yep. Also, some countries(like Germany), it's far out of financial reach for young people, because it cost, literally, thousands of dollars to get one.Originally Posted by Mirage
I really would rather have a nice metro system set up like other countries do rather than all the automobile crap, because now in some places (like where I am now), you need a car...which is why I'm unemployed.
I like Kung-Fu.
Yeah, walking's all cool, except when you live ten miles from town. And I don't fancy walking *or* riding a bike uphill to my house.
A metro system is all well and good, except we don't have one. We barely have buses that go through.
Hence the cars.
(although I have been thinking about hang-gliding to school. like, seriously)
Wouldn't that require you to carry the hang glider all the way up to your house each day? :p
My car is a rusted out old piece of....garbage.
I inherited it from my grandmother when she died in 2002. Never did get it to start, again. (Like I could drive, anyway.)
I live over 30 miles from town and have absolutely NO metro system and not a single bus of any sort that comes through...what's your point?
I like Kung-Fu.
my point is that I'm bad at walking. and that I don't want to have to get up for school two hours before the sun rises and get home when it's set.
I prefer to take Ian Malcolm's point of view sometimes-- that the earth is far older than us and can deal with more than we throw at her.
(That doesn't mean that I'm going to carve my initials in the ground with toxic waste though^^)
I WISH I COULD DRIVE!!! STUPID LAW! *Mumbles about how stupid the law is* I did drive my 'rent's Lumina *I think that's how you spell it* but ran into the mail box trying to get it into the drive way. That was my first *And probably last* time i'll EVER get to drive! Uh...oh well.
