well now that you put a $$$ amount on the car and asked what looks nice....there are quite a few options.....here is a used vehicle, since you were talking used here is a z06 with 19k miles for under 30k, non z06 vettes are even cheaper

i think thats better than any altima you could bring to the table, and the z06 gets 30 mpg on the highway about the same that the altima gets

your dad must drive like an *** hole, because the new ones with the 4 cyl do 30 mpg and above.

Well I got it as well as a speeding ticket on the way home Only 10 over but still I have to fight it or it goes on my record. I dont get it I hear all the time of cops letting people off or getting like a 25 over and the cop writing it for 10 over, I was only doing 10 over 65 in a 55 and not slam on my brakes to slow down I though it was 65 and i had the cruse set. I answer yes sir no I didnt know the last sign said 65 Im not from here just came up to get this car I dont know the area and when it drops back down..... and still a ticket for exacly 10 over. I have never gotten a waring once always just get tickets. Anyways that ruined my day but I love the car power to spare and ill post pics as soon as I can borrow a cam. As for those cars, im not in to muscle cars to the vett and mustang I would never buy the benz maybe I would probably get a 3 BMW first though I like them more but something about this altima I really like, and just wait white color matched 20;s I see it now and its going to look great

extreme....not ever meeting you and listening to your talk about g-rides and colormatching rims and thinking that a altima is the best looking thing out there for 30k and its a fast car....i would guess that you are about 23-25, living at home or at school (or just got out) and feel a little peer pressure to go out and get a nice shiney new car. then you say that a benz is not you but a 3 series something, well if its not a m3 then go home 7 series or go home, dont get entry level anything benz is 500 or better or go home if you cant get it new get one about 2 years old that got turned in on a lease that was garaged kept and never ragged on, you would be surprised how much a beating that a $110k goes down after 2 years down

here is a 7 series for 32k buy it now...i bet 30k would take it...it has all your hid lighting, leather, oh yeah plus gps idrive power and heated everything and a touch of class...there are atleast 10 more on ebay just like it if different colors

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BMW-7...spagenameZWDVW

it would hands down smoke any altima you could trick out and still sit bone stock, its new body style and was a $90k when new...

one day you will get a few more years and learn these things...i currently have 5 vehicles and have learned buy new when you keep it 10 or more years and used if its very high end or going to dump it less than 2 years, let the first chump who bought it take the beating....

you tried to use an excuse...excuses are like a-holes, everbodies got 'em.

if you're going to speed, 5 mph over is the max you should go

I get pulled over 1-2 times a year. I always tell the truth...my theory is that they caught me, so why try and feed the cop full of ****...we both know I'm guilty of it. It's a calculated risk to speed...I just up my odds by using a Radar detector

and you know what, never had a ticket. just a warning, and usually the cops say thank you because I get completely off the road when I pull over.

I guess that makes 2 then...the 07 Altima S with I-4 I rented got a best of ~22 mpg in the 2 weeks I had it. Lowest tank was 18mpg.

I am sure you will get pulled over even more often after you install the white rims, fart can exhaust, neon lighting under the car, 5% limo tint and a killer stereo.

You would be better off saving some money for a radar detector.

I thought the only cars with white color-matched rims were 80's and 90's Pontiacs.



By the way, there is no way he is 25-35. I would say more like 19-22. Living with his parents? Yes.

Were you serious when you made this statement? The absurdity of it made it seem like sarcasm but something tells me that you were serious.

My only advice is to take some of that loot you'll be saving from filling up less and purchase a new keyboard with a "period" key that actually works.
