CSB3: I'm So Sick And Tired Of Being Admired That I Wish That I Would Just Die Or Get Fired

[Saabingti]

Yeah I get the whole sporty SUV thing, I think it's not really that different from the Dad Wagon move. Something sporty that can haul people and stuff. It's just that Dad Wagons are way cooler

I'm sure we'll get plenty of excuses at least.

Bisforbuild is doing a lemons car. I'd love to see it in person, but youtube will have to do.


I have 4. 08 Malibu that needs to ge hauled off fo scrap, 07 335i that's a yard ornament for now, 79 jeep Cherokee that I'll own till I die, and the 18 R (only one not fully paid off, keeping the payment for building credit.)

Clearing my car loan hurt my credit pretty bad. It's fucked up, you have to buy things or they won't lend you the money to buy things.

Multiple cars are the way if you have the ways and means. I tend to keep things and prefer a few older cheaper models than one high cost one. No hate on others that choose different

I owned a 10 year old mk4 with 120k miles at some point. That thing was janky enough to keep me away from every older car forever. I love seeing cool old stuff at car shows or driving down the road, but it doesn't inspire me to get my own at all, I have no interest. The RS3 might be a hard one to give up though. Maybe when I'm 55 I'll have a 20 year old RS3 with a cheaper newer car to daily.

My problem is I have relatively low debt. Like 25k or less. But the messed up thing is, my credit is still below 700. The system is fucked for sure.

i have like 19k in debt but a maxxed credit card is 8k of it lol

When I got my Honda Accord the sales guy was like... "ok, well we don't see these scores very often you can pretty much get whatever you want"

Dollars of debt doesn't mean anything on its own, debt to credit ratio is what's important.

Having debt of 5,000 with a credit limit of 10,000 is worse for your score than if you have 10,000 in debt with a limit of 100,000.

I was in the 780s when I got my RS3, but now it's like 740 after the purchase. I think I want to get it over 750 before I refinance.

It's funny how different time is when you get older. My first car was 8 years old when I got it and I remember thinking it seemed like an ancient clunker. My GTI is almost 7 now and it still seems pretty new and current to me. I guess cars changed a lot more during the 90's?

For sure! Would love a 3 row wagon!!

I'm wondering if the idiots in the other thread will refuse to wear masks and follow recommendations for this smoke issue?

Here's your answer.

Rule #1 yada yada yada. I'll go self-flagellate as penance.

So frustrated at how expensive even low trim R32 Skyline sedans are now.
