yep kei to the city was my next word.  I wish we had car parts stores like they have in japan.

I was actually thinking of starting a business that involves me visiting Japan or having a contact in Japan who can buy and ship parts over here to the USA and we could have a nice online store that sells parts super cheap to the USA.

but these videos are making me question whether or not the RX7 will be drifted or not. I really want a nice, clean daily but I also want to go sideways :( without it being destroyed. Maybe if I find a nice open area to do it (damn near impossible here)

I might get a job or find out how to make money in some kind of way and build a 240sx i can beat the living stuff out of.

yes

I wouldn't want to damage an rx7.  Those things are just too cool.

I wish I could do something like that, problem is that trucks are the only viable option around here (dirt roads, haulin stuff, mud, the lot)

found a 95 kawasaki 650 for $1300 on craigslist

I wanna start saving for a car. I got like $330. I can't get anything with that. :(

Then again, there's no point in me getting one right now, seeing as I just turned 15 last month.

how long have you been saving for?  Where do you expect to be money wise within a year?

I started the summer with like $40. I'd hope to have maybe $600-$700 by the end of next summer, minimum. It be awesome if I could get an actual job next year.

I think it'd be cool to purchase some car for cheap really soon and work on it until I could drive, but I don't think my dad wants some undrivable car sitting in our yard.

700-1500 bucks can get you a nice honda civic. Great first car, and if you wanna go fast, theres a great aftermarket for them, so just drop some mods on it. And it gets great mileage.

yah. Probably the biggest problem for me is going to be insurance. My mom doesnt want me to get my license until I'm 18, partially because of insurance. :/

The good news is that that gives me some extra time to save.
What I really want is an E30. A Toyota MR2 would be pretty cool to.

I am pretty sure they'll change their mind. My parents said the same thing.

If i ever do save up enough for that drift car my first choice would be 1996 BMW E30, second a 240sx, third a sileighty, fourth another RX7 but a 1989
