Be lucky you're getting a car at all, I know if I get one I'm going to have to pay for it. -- Posted by ss454 at 11:25 am on June 28, 2008 then keep looking for a car you idiot, don't get the first thing you find -- Posted by XxuremokidxX at 11:25 am on June 28, 2008 Quote: from xoxo1234 at 11:24 am on June 28, 2008 Ehh, that's a little ungrateful if you ask me.

It's better than not having a car at all. No need to act like a spoilt brat. He said he's going to do the best he can and you should accept that! -- Posted by XxemochickxX at 11:26 am on June 28, 2008 Quote: from ss454 at 11:25 am on June 28, 2008 then keep looking for a car you idiot, don't get the first thing you find my dad wont let me. i have to take what he buys me. . . . -- Posted by Porcelina at 11:27 am on June 28, 2008 A. I really don't think you get to complain about a car you're being given. B. If it's that upsetting to you, tell your father you'd like him to give your a price range, and then you can look on Craig's List or something like that to find a car that better suits you. Just tell him you feel like a 1980 Town Car is a little old, you feel like it might give out on you, and it takes too much gas. http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites.html -- Posted by itbeme at 11:28 am on June 28, 2008 why wont you just look over for a car in his price range that you like? for 4k you could get alot more options than just that. -- Posted by SerendipityDarling at 11:29 am on June 28, 2008 Don't whine, be grateful. :D It'll probably be a gas guzzler though. -- Posted by Crazy snake at 11:29 am on June 28, 2008 Hm, 5000$ is like....€3000 roughly....you could get a newer better car than that for that price here :/ 98 corolla? 99 Ibiza -- Posted by leahslove at 11:29 am on June 28, 2008 then get a new one -- Posted by ss454 at 11:32 am on June 28, 2008 Quote: from XxemochickxX at 2:26 pm on June 28, 2008 Quote: from ss454 at 11:25 am on June 28, 2008 then keep looking for a car you idiot, don't get the first thing you find my dad wont let me. i have to take what he buys me. . . . Well then your fucked.  I wish my dad would buy a car for me.... -- Posted by Jgain6 at 11:42 am on June 28, 2008 Don't worry. maybe you can get a nice black paint job? -- Posted by ss454 at 11:46 am on June 28, 2008 Quote: from Jgain6 at 2:42 pm on June 28, 2008 Don't worry. maybe you can get a nice black paint job? That's not cheap...at all. I go to an auto-body class and only pay for materials and it still isn't cheap. -- Posted by ScoobyDoo82 at 12:20 pm on June 28, 2008 Lincoln Towncars are boats, be happy. I almost got an 86 Towncar but it had a lot of problems w/ it so I passed. -- Posted by hinshawwrx at 3:13 pm on June 28, 2008 So you have a 3-5K budget and your dad is getting you a 1980 towncar? Hell you can get a 96 Civic for that price and be better off. Your dad is an idiot from the way it sounds -- Posted by espresso8097 at 4:23 pm on June 28, 2008 Be happy you are getting a car for free. But your dad is an idiot, you can get a mid-late 90's car for under $5k easily.   -- Posted by emo sux69 at 8:39 am on June 29, 2008 Im getting a WAY better car for only 1.5k. 4k for a car that old is ridiculous. you could get a late 90s car in that price range easy. -- Posted by Holden Commodore at 12:43 pm on June 29, 2008 Quote: from Jgain6 at 11:42 am on June 28, 2008 Don't worry. maybe you can get a nice black paint job? A proper paint job that will last more than two months, will cost upwards of five thousand dollars. -- Posted by i r sekz at 1:01 pm on June 29, 2008 That has got to be the worst deal I have ever heard of.  Complete rip off. -- Posted by JeremyM at 6:07 am on June 30, 2008 Not many people like their first car. Unless you're a whorebag on MTV's "Super Sweet 16" Edit: And even then, they still cry about not having the car they want after they just got a $60,000 bimmer or something
