Don't worry too much about it. I didn't get a license until I was 18. Not because I couldn't get a car, but because I didn't care enough to pursue getting it.

Unless you can't easily get where you need to go when you need to, it's not a big deal. After you finally do get to drive, you'll realize how much it sucks having to do... although it has it's perks.

LOL I scanned over the posts again and "I need a CAB" was what I read. Funny how it is more fitting. ;)

Heheh. I'll have a car in about 6 months but I'll have the engine in 3. I'm 14.

'64 chevelle....primered and stripped down body.

468cubic inchs of pure american muscle...and of course, the signature sound, flowmasters.

Im 15 also. I had a phase were all i wnated was my license. Then I looked at it: I could work twice as hard at work, get a decent car, and resort to beingb roke 24/7, paintball like once every 2 months, and a 2 skateboards every year, and I would have to kiss my Korg EA-1, ES-1, ER-1, and Kaoss pad that i plan to buy ina few months goodbye. Then I looked at it if I dont have one: most of my friedn drive/will be driving in a few months. I can buy/have great stuff for the things i love. I can play pball every week or two. I can upgrade my mag more, I can buy tons of clothes so I look less ugly, lol, and I canhave a lot of spending money. And if I cant get a ride there, ride the bus there, or walk/skate there. I can always fork over a few bucks for the cab. But thats just me. Its just not an important thing in my life at this moment

Saleen Cobra? Isn't there a Saleen mustang and a Cobra mustang? And aren't they made by 2 different companies?

i was considering selling some of my paintball stuff, but then one of my uncles said he would give me a Toyota Camery. It's an old model, early 90s i think but hey, better than nothing!

No the Cobra is just another model of mustang. Saleen is a tuner that upgrades any of the mustangs, including the GT and Cobra.

Hmm, why do you have to be 16 to take drivers ed?
My school doesn't offer it, we have to pay for it :(

True but to be a bit more precise its now the Special Vehicle Team (SVT) that makes the Cobra model. They make the F-150 Lightning too. Fords SV team that is. Saleen is a out sourced upgraded unit but a bit more styling than tuning (but some of that for sure)and the SVT Cobra is mostly under the hood stuff and suspension tuning with little in the way of styling touches.

Saleen, SVT, Cobra, it's still a ford :) I'm a chevy guy, but I can respect fords.

Best vehicles to get are american made 4 door cars or small pickups. Cheapest to insure. I just got a '96 S-10 with the 4.3 and 5 speed, it's awesome. My other car was a '87 Cutlass Salon, power everything, t tops, but it had the stupid buick v6 :( and the exhaust was plugged so it went nowhere, but was a really nice car, but expensive to insure.

I'm already looking at upgrading my truck: lowering, ground effects, lights, bunch of stuff. It's easier to afford that stuff when not playing paintball :) I like fixing and upgrading the guns more anyways. Right now it's intellifeed on an impulse.
