The Thinking of Purchasing A Used Car Thread

[Dayze]

I figured I’d create this thread rather than hunting down one of the old ones that are specific to a certain make/model.

Don’t drive it like a stolen rental and you’ll probably be just fine with plain ole routine maintenance.

yep lol
we were at the AHRA races a few years back, and we walked by a garbage can and he said 'You wanna make a drag car? If so, just take all your money out of your account, put it into the barrel, and light it on fire"

lol. He's pretty much 'done' with those days. I'd love to have a car that looks good, sounds good, runs good etc. Ie - don't need 500HP lol.

It is what it is, an expensive hobby.

nah. I'll garage it. Won't get into racing etc.

If I were to ever race as a hobby, I'd get a track bike. much cheaper and a ton 'o fun.
