Just Got My First Car (89' TII) [Pics]
 

I'm 16, and in NJ we cant get our liscences until 17, and even then thats only a provisional liscence, so I dont officially have a full liscence until i'm 18, but since theres only 2 seats, i cant really break any laws involving extra passengers, lol. Anyways, mid day Sunday I picked it up after getting it checked out and all, just got some pics of it today. My dad bought it for me, and he paid $2900, and he said he would buy me a paintjob if he could get the price down a bit (which he did, the final price was $2900, it started out as $3700). So i'm going to just get it painted the same color over again, cause theres some paint chipping going on. Its an 89' TII with 100k original miles, and 9k on a rebuilt engine. It came with a $250 pioneer cd player reciever, and two new pioneer speakers in the back. The speakers are decent, but I have to remount them because they shake too much. Anyways, you've probably seen a million FC's, but i'm just excited because this is my first car. Heres the pics...

:( Isn't your dady nice.

Nice car!

You're 16. Don't race on the streets and don't even go the limit in the rain. Keep it in between the lines.

:cool:

Nice grab! Resale on that it alot more than $2900(at least where I live). Be carefull with it, I don't want to hear about you hitting a tree or curb with it while doing a mad drift :P

Oops, somehow posted 3 times, can a mod please delete the other two?

Also, are you paying him back for it or was it a gift?

yeah, you lucky spoiled bitch. i feel you about the stupid graduated license shit though.

Actually yes, he is very nice....dont post that roll eyes thing like i'm some spoiled kid who gets everything he wants. I consider myself extremely lucky to get this car from him. I didn't expect him to pay for any one piece of my car, but he was nice enough to save some extra money so he could buy a car that he could work on with his son....I'm like the farthest thing from spoiled, and I work hard to get things, its just nice to get such a great gift....besides, it was only $2800, i could see saying that if my dad bought me a brand new acura or something like all the other kids in my areas parents do, but whatever, i'm happy with it, so if you dont have anything nice to say, dont say it...

awesome t2, take care of it ;)

;)

All I got was a grand am with shit loads of problems. lol

Anyways keep in in good shape dide. Or we WILL find you. :D

good for you dude, just don't act 16. I just got an 87 tII 2 days ago, and I feel your excitment. Just be safe. and Congrats :D

Not to sound full of myself or anything, but I consider myself a very responsible person. I work hard in school, i'm not some irresponsible punk. I drive pretty safely, and I plan on keeping all my racing to the tracks.

heh.. im 15 and just got my t2.. but i paid for it myself..


also, expect to work on it, a lot


from maitenance to shit breaking every time you take it out.

Good shit for 2900 with a rebuilt that a pretty good price. Where I live I can barely find a s5 TII. Ey how much are you paying for insurance on that thing ne wais.

Nice TII...:)

Great score!

Find a Mazda service manual and read it till you can quote it!

Drive it with love and keep the rubber side down!

Congrats on your 1st car, we all know you're gonna love it! ;)

I'm going to be put on my moms insurance, i'm just getting basic liability, cause collision would be a waste. It should be under $1k though, my mom called the insurance place and said for just liability its only a few hundred over my brothers car (89 corolla that you see in the pics) so not very much at all cause i get the good student discount and my mom has a flawless driving record

bahhh...moo

consider yourself lucky to have gotten a TII like that! :)
Looks clean!

nice car dude, i just don`t think its safe to let kids drive cars ;o)

Sweet ride man!

Sweet TII. I got my N/A handed to me from my dad cuz he doesn't drive it anymore. Everyone does stupid shit with their first car, just be sure to keep it low on the stupid meter. My poor first car...I'm sorry 87' Accord!

If ya take good care of it, your first car will hopefully be yer last!

Great find man. Make sure you change the oil ALOT. Especially at first.

Only thing I have to say is I would paint it a little different color. Like a deeper red, more towards burgandy(but not). Thats just my opinion though.
