    LOL...well it goes from having accidents to buying my first new car (the Mazda 6) to buying the Durango R/T my absolute fave!!! When I bought it used I rolled 2 years worth of lease payments into it, going from a $314 payment to having a $452 car payment. Didn't mean much because I loved the truck! BUT one day I woke up and realized I needed to come back down to reality. I traded in the Durango for the Sebring, at $450/mo. After 3 years I would be thru without being upside down and would be in better shape! Unfortunately, I lost my job and with about a year and a half left on my lease my Sebring got repo'd =( I was at a loss! I hated the Sebring and it got me depressed I ever traded into my Durango! BUT I had to move on. With bad credit I headed one to a "No credit, no problem" used car shop which is where I found the Grand Prix. After all was said and done I decided on it based on my "under the tabel" income. To this day I have made the best of it and have made it my own. I pay $343/mo for it and its a 2000, a little high but I'm doing what I have to do. In another 15 months it will be paid off. As you can see I have always taken what I have and made it my own! I do not settle for stock!

    My first car was a 2000 Chrysler Sebring LXi, I really miss having a coupe and the moon roof.



    RIP...



    And now I have the Pontiac, I didn't have time to really research it and see what engine options it had I just needed a car fast. Got an ok deal on it too.



    And as for the future I want a two door GTP, limited edition would be real nice.
    GP is gone...

    LOL @ me, 17 with my truck, 95 Mitsubishi Mighty Max

    Truck was totalled by my best friends, baby sisters, boyfriend lol
    got me my 2001 MX-5 Miata... loved that car, my play toy at 21, drifter/autocross extreme lol

    Sadly, it was reposessed like the OP, sux but I feel your pain. Full time student trying to juggle a $300/month car payment with grants and part time work, didnt happen
    but it enabled me to be gifted by my father his 94 SSEi Bonneville... still own and still runs, kinda ragged but still runs lol
