well everyones saying about how bad it was when they were selling their car so....why not kill time
tell about the day you got your car
was getting sick of my 1994 bonneville... and was really exicted about getting a TC cause i liked the way they looked and sounded and the fact that the car would be stick
so im at carmax with my dad getting it appriased and i walk out the door and i look for the Tc's... first thing that catches my eye...a silver 06 Si... my dad works at carmax so he just took out his key to the little lock box on the window and said sit inside see how it feels... so i take the key from him and start it up and LOVE the way it sounds when it started...and the way the spoiler looked along with how the seats felt... my dad said ok shut it off and lets go look at the tc that youve been talking about for the last 2 months
... i say ok fine...i go sit in the TC for about a seconed and say nope dont like how the seats feel... he just stares at me and said fine... what about the stupid cobalt that you were talking about (Cobalt SS SC) but they only had the base model cobalt.. he made me sit in it just to show me how much they sucked... (i had posters of the SS SC all over my room (along with posters of vettes) so then he sees a G6 i look at it...seemd nice so i sat it in felt nice but was freaking hudge felt like a boat just like the bonneville... so i look at my dad and say you know that civic felt really nice.... he said ok lets go look at it again and see how much you like it still... i walked back over to the Si.. i remeber it was parked right next to a white Si coupe and about 5 cars to the left there was a blue 03 Si that looked like a mini van lol and i sit in both the silver and white Si.. they were both the same price(both fully loaded except for Navi) with same things except the white one had about 10k more miles so i said "hey dad....i love you" he just laughed and said ok fine...so i waited for about a good hour or 2 just sitting around waiting for my dad to get off of work and he decided to keep the bonneville cause it runs great only 50k miles and sold his montero sport... i just sat there in the waiting room... taking pictures and sending them to my friends...my dad walks out.. i jump up...he laughes and says wait a little bit longer after about another 30 mins of waiting he comes back and says ok... lets go home
i go to head to the driver side door and he laughes and says woah woah woah your not driving it home
i look at him like what??!!! its my car
he started at me and said do you even know how to drive stick shift... i said kind of and laughed
he said "im driving" so i sat there in the passenger seat upset that he got my car up to 90 the day we got it and didnt even let me drive it except for the last 1/2 mile home which the speed limit was 30 = (
so he pulls over in a parking lot and says ok your turn... i say finally! jump in the driver seat and it feels great... i put it into first and dump the clutch at about 3k (keep inmind that i knew kind of how to drive stick but not excatly) and the tires chirped and i turn out of the parking lot... my dad just gives me a dirty ass look and i smiled... for that 1/2 mile i didnt even grind a gear or stall it (except for reverse parking forgot car was in gear)
cobalt-X
Tc-X
G6-X
Si- = )
i didnt even test drive the Si and i knew i wanted it.. i never really liked the civics before or even hondas.. but now when im driving with my friends in the Si and the Vtec kicks in my friend with the 04 Cobra/Srt-8 Jeep and my friend with a WRX get a smiles on their faces it makes me happy i got the Si... that and the fact i can chirp my tires in 3rd lol

and I was a noob) and it was solid. I convinced my mom to buy it for me and she did. I only bought the car initially because I thought my friends would think I was cool but I ended up loving the car to death. Then my noob ass blew the head gasket and I sold the car.
