It wasn't easy, but you'd be surprised how much you can get done when you live on a major bus route in Boston. I used to bike a lot too.

72 and a ge8 base was going to be my first new car, trade in was a Mercury Grand Marquis, dealer offered 500, salesman called a few days later and said he would give me 750 told him I wanted 1K and he bought it, then the salesman called a month later and offered me a used sport, 1400 more than the base on order, I decided to get it, they had to give me an extra year of warranty as it was used. 115 miles on speedometer wasn't too used. Why a 77 yr old woman would want paddle shifters beats me, I tried them but couldn't see the point of using except in an emergency stop without brakes.

50yr old,
94 240 Volvo wagon, air broke, PS broke, windshield leaks into fuse panel, rust every where. My wife and daughter bugged me to get a new car.
2008 Sport - new, life is good. Now after a few years of ownership I'm thinking about pimping my ride

I got my license when i was 17. I picked up a non running, 1991 Civic Sedan (EF2) got her running good, and gave her an extreme drop and paint job and a few other stuff. bought her wheels and all.. dealt with her for 3 years 
.. THENNN I turned 20.. May 19th, I decided i wanted a new car.. I wasssss going to get a 2002 330iC BMW.. BUT after looking at how much room it has, and how fast it was, I decided to check out honda.. hahaha.. I picked up a 2012 White Fit Sport. and I'm happy with it.. practically this is my first car.. I'm still young with many more cars to buy.. ahha.. but yea.. sorry for the history xD I'm 20.. and young

I will be 74 within a week
Today I waxed my 2012 Fit Sport A/T. Monday I had Swift springs
and the Progress sway bar installed. I did not like the way the
OEM Fit Suspension handled cornering on Kentucky's backroads...
Still less than 1000 miles on the Odometer.
