I got a job at 13, held jobs all through high school (I never had 1 weekend, oh well). Modded my e30 the whole time, got out, modded it some more, then bought my 4runner. I haven't bought a vehicle for 6 years, so I felt I deserved it.
Work hard, play harder. I have so many lazy friends that can't keep a job, I just laugh.
And my insurance is about $650 every 6 months for 2 cars.
Oh man, I don't have pictures of them all, but I'll list them out:
My daily beater: 1988 325
My track car: 1988 SuperEta Stroker
My project: 1988 2.7i budget stroker
Oh, and it's pictured below...the blue car.
Oh yea...and umm...yea...just the blue car. :)
My car does everything...track, autocross, drive me 1000 miles to home and 1000 miles back to school, with 530lbs of my crap in it and on it.
Ahh...it's treating me well. I'm not gettin a daily until I'm out of college, at which point I'm considering picking up an old (by that point) 2000 or 2001 323i.
Insurance on the other hand is a problem, livin in pierce county, its not a felony until your 9th car theft, as a result our car insurance is through the roof.
Same shit here, you wont do time until your 9th conviction.
A) Don't go to college. That means you start your career at 18, which means you have more time to pay off a car and go on to buy the next one.
B) Don't mod any (many) of your cars. My M Coupe and M5 are bone stock. The E30 S50 car I bought heavily modded. I've done minor tweaks to it.
C) Insurance isn't that expensive if your daily driver is a crapbox. My insurance is $300 per month on all 5 of my cars. My daily is the '85 325e, which the insurance company knows is worth $5.93...
Them is the secrets. Rent is steep in San Diego at $1000/month (including utilities), but it's all in priorities.
I guess that explains alot in your case. I hear ya on the college bit, I got my associates and dropped out cause I am on the road to making damn good money without college.
I didn't think your ///M cars were bone stock, they look good :)
Insurance on the other hand is a problem, livin in pierce county, its not a felony until your 9th car theft, as a result our car insurance is through the roof. Until I just recently got the '5 years wiht no accidents' reduction, I was paying 240 to be insured on my '91 Jetta as the primary and the e30 as the secondary insured vehicle.
My motorcycle runs me another 86$ or so a month as well.
So thats 300-350$ right there for two cars and a bike.
dude the cars superduper (mtriple) posted are just the ones hes had in the last year or so. ive known this fucker about 5 years and hes had over 30 vehicles in that time if you count everything with wheels. i bet you if you asked him to post the vehicles he has today there would be 2 or 3 new ones since he made that original post
note my previous post regarding intoxication and false identification of the vehicles he listed
