lets see...

first mode of transportation that i bought myself was a:
Diamondback mountainbike. it was a hardtail, and i think i paid $500 for it, and invested another 5 or 6 hundred in it.
it got stolen while i was at work.

next i bought a Norco Bigfoot. also a hardtail. i think i paid about$900 for it, andonly replaced the pedals on it.everything on it is beefy. i still own this bike, but ever since i bought my car, it doesnt get used to much.i think i used it under 20 times this year.

then i bought a '92 Civic hatch. modded. B16 swap, 17" wheels, aftermarket sideskirts/rear bumper. a loud as f*ck exhaust, 5spd, gsr swapped everything.
i paid $5400 for it. wat a big mistake that was.
i went to go buckle up when i got the car, and there was no buckle, i was like, wtf? the seats were really half assed with the install, and rears didnt even fit. the stereo barely worked at all. i tihnk 1 speaker played music. it wouldnt pass the etest to save its life.

so then i went new car shopping with my dad. of course, we test drove a '06 civic, and i liked it. but the mazda3 was cheaper.

i sold the civic to mazda for $1500. i was f*cking pissed. i lost $4000 in about a month. this happened over a year ago, and since then, ive yet to have over $1000 in my account.
always do your research kids.

now i drive a nicely modded Mazda3. rims, full exhaust, lowered, yadda yadda yadda.

i'll post pics later on
