All about me and my cars

so far i'm on my fourth car. i've had a ford exploder that had a bad piston and all 6 injecters were bad so that got sold, then i got a chevy s-10 pickup with a bad tranny and some minor things missing (pullys, battery, belts) and that was strictly a project truck but my dad didnt want to do tranny work so he sold that and got me a 90 jeep cherokee that i still have and it is for sale. i drove the cherokee around for a while then my step mom helped me finance my curent car, a volkswagen jetta GL 2.0l that has a 2" drop, smoked markers and blinkers, badgeless grill, and a cold air intake. currently lookin into boost, hopefully by this summer.

But for whatever reason, i drive with my hand on the shifter anyway even though its automatic. I don't know why i do it since theres no point, but it also makes it easier for me to reach the radio controls.

At 7:28pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: probably gonna keep it an auto. i would have preferred the stick shift though, didn't have much of a choice when i got the car. but, the next car i get will probably have a manual trans. they're so much more fun to drive than boring automatics

At 7:11pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: yup, seen them tons of times, but never really thought of purchasing one. i actually really like the older 93-97 corollas, if i were to get one, id swap in a 20V 4AGE, that would give me some nice power. btw, those AE 86s still are all over the pages of mags like super street, import tuner etc.

At 6:52pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: hah, that would be great. that sure would surprise some people. im probably going to keep the rolla and just buy a faster car in the future, don't think i could separate myself from the corolla. gonna be driven until it falls apart. I think hers is like a 2004, but now im thinking, that is really low mileage for a car from that year. idk...still a nice car though

At 6:42pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: my aunt is selling her jetta. It only has like 10K miles, but asking price is 16,500. I wish i had the cash, b/c i would pick it up in a heartbeat! it just sucks with cars that aren't mainstream like the rolla, because they don't make that many performance parts for it. can't even find a turbo kit for it!

At 6:27pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: thanks man, yeah, them stock corollas sure look nasty. plus all of them always seem to be beat up and barely running. originally wanted a civic or accord but i guess its better that i have the rolla because a lot less people mod corollas. allows me to have one of a few somewhat modded rollas out there

At 4:57pm on April 8, 2008, Evil Rolla said…: nice, a jetta! wow, it got a 2" drop, must be low to the ground. Does it have a body kit or anything?
