RE: Young Scirocco drivers
i'd like to add in a little something. none of this is true at my
school. evryone beats on their cars except for some of the girls. but
the big difference is between the people who dont care about the car
at all and the people who will take care of what is wrong no matter
what and will fix the things they cause. im not going to beat on my
car i dont like to fix unnecessary things that wouldnt normally need
it. i got my car at the beginning of the summer and i still havent got
my license yet(dec 29). i havent paid for my car with money but with
blood. no really i helped my dad build our deck and he bought the car
for $525 in good shape too mind you. well thats what i got to say
