Since this car was given to me it's not technical mine, put its pretty much is.
I'm looking at purchasing my first car and it will retire the cobra from its daily driving duties, I'm looking at getting a Subaru, 4banger + AWD and it has to be a wagon, no joke. Will still be the primary driver of the cobra and will be getting her all nice and pretty.

A wagon is the way to go. I don't want a subaru, but I do really want a late 8s volvo wagon. I think if I bought another car that wasn't a Mustang, it would be a wagon.

Nice, I was planning on buying a Subaru impreza but I found my civic for a really low price.

I'm not going to be too picky about it, it's just cant be a complete POS. Already have my dads permission to get one but my mom just ugh. We already have a full garage and driveway but I want it.
On a side note I came up with almost every thing I need for my car and also an mgw short shifter

Yup, hopefully you get your new car (new to you), so you can retire the cobra.

Hope to get that car soon! The cobra is taking some heat right now, lately people have been trashing up by car with food and trash while I'm working, we are doing some redesigns at work so the cameras are down it makes me mad and I'm 99.7% it's some high school wanna be thugs that hang out there all night.

That sucks big time, I'd tell my boss, that way he would at least let you check up on the car every now and then.

There is only one camera and it only covers like 1/5th of the parking lot but is down for now. I talked to them and said I'm not coming in or they are getting me a ride to work. Last night it was mustard on the convertible top.

I work at a truck stop and there is a small lot for truckers right next to the building that I can look out and see a whole lot easier than where I usually park so I'm going to be a ***** about it and park there till stuff gets fixed or I transfer to a different location.
