I know its cliché I think I'm a pretty good driver, have gotten out of a few accidents and I know some of my friends wouldnt have been able to get out of. So theasianeffect I hope your a really good driver if you expect to get one at 16 cause thats alot of power for someone that is 16.

Ya, i'm planning on waiting til my junior/senior year of college to try to get one. And after graduation from UNOH i should have all the know-how to fix it myself

Exactly, in the 20's sometime would be best...

I'm now scared about a 16 year possibly old having a VR-4

Insurance on a VR4 for a 16-year old has got to be outrageous I'd imagine.....or even a 20-year old. Hell, it's high for me and I get the old married man clean record fleet car discount. hehe

Mychal1216km · 07-18-2007, 06:24 AM

Yea i would think so, but what is crazy the insurance for my 94 3000GT Base is cheaper than what it was for my 93 Ford Taurus. Like 5-10 dollars cheaper...I was so surprised yet so happy

I was paying $2700 a year for full coverage on my SL when i was under 21....

You guys should check out Michiana3s.org once its back up and running. GR area is technically more close to GR than the Michigan group is.

go figure

yeah i know me being only 16 and owning a vr4 is crazy, but i know people may say it there selfs, but i think im a really good driver my self. and i have also gotten out of many situations that i know people couldn't of either, but see the thing is if i own one now, i can can build it up for the next 5 yrs or so, then i'll be older and more experience to drive a powerful machine

. i want it to be a project car. had my license for almost 7 months now, haven't got into one accident that i caused ( some lady rear ended me on the 4th of july ) and havent gotten any speeding tickets either but yeah i understand this whole thing may sound crazy but eh, you only live once =D

Well thought I would add this, when I pulled into work today (kmart) I saw a white Stealth pulling out of a parking spot and went over to family fare (same parking lot). If I didn't have to be into work in a min i would have chased that guy down to talk to him, I was bummed rest of the day.

jacob666 · 07-26-2007, 06:06 AM

same happened to me the other day at meijer. Beautiful 1st gen red stealth with snake eye and black roof. but i was late for work otherwise i would have waited for the guy to come out of the store.

theasianeffect · 07-26-2007, 08:42 PM

i think i seen the same stealth last week (red one ). I seen the same black stealth today i seen like 2 weeks ago, it looks really nice, like you guys said, if i had time i would have followed him and try talking to him, Black 2nd gen stealth, with Stealth on the windshield, anyone else seen it?
