Unfortunately, you're wrong. Modifications to *not* add value to a car like this. If anything, they take value away. When a car is a dime-a-dozen like the GS, the most valuable ones are the ones that are bone stock and in great, well-maintained, original condition. If modifications exist...the best case scenario is that they don't detract from the car's value.

 

Dang. and i really thought i could get a good price on it Guess you guys convinced me on keeping it till it dies out

 

Gas isn't to bad, i only pay about $70 a week and insurance i'm paying around $1500 a year. Considering most kids my age are paying twice that for much ****tier cars, I'm pretty happy.

 

how old are you? Cause im only 16, and without a paying job, ima be broke ah

 

$5.5k max.

 

19, and I don't work during the school year, I just invested some money and it was more than enough to last during the school year then I work again during the summer. No offense but a lexus is not a car to have if money is tight. Running costs are relatively high when compared to fords Chevys ect. Mainly due to parts

 

I can manage on the parts, i just thought the only hassle i would have is insurance and gas. But if gas isn't a problem, since it's about 60 a tank then i can probably manage

 

If you do the discounts and put the insurance under someone else, youre insurance won't be to bad. Shouldn't be more then 2 grand a year, which isnt alot comparatively, and if you do only liability, itll be even less

 

I'm a 20 year old, with only liability, and I pay about $1,000 a year.

 

How's you're driving record? For $1500 I have full coverage and if I wanted just liability it was like $680 if I remember correctly

 

What type of investments that are giving you that huge of a return to where you don't have to work during the school year? Please point me in that direction...I have the Capital to invest in something like this.

 

I dont have my licenses yet lol, parents are stricted and still want me to master parallel parking. I got everything else down cept that.

 

I read that as, "I worked really hard during the summer and saved all my money. It was more than enough to last for the whole school year. Then I went back to work the next summer."

If it's truly a high-yield, short-term investment...I want in, too.

 

Bought 6k of mylan at 19, sold for 27 , a few thousand shares of actc at .05, went to .09 and I sold, and a few shares of apple at 437 and sold I think it was at 630 or 640, I didn't hold out till 700, but now its only at like 425 so might get back into it. There are a bunch of others but most money I invested was in medical stuff. I got lucky on the mylan. Actc I bought back into when it got to 7 cents and its been pretty steady for the past few months so well see. Thing is you don't technically need a fortune to start off with, but it definitely helps. I'm following a company called Titan medical pretty closely so we will have to see. This just because something that I started doing in my spare time, instead of spending money I mods, I did this.

 

16 and in a Lexus, must be nice, when i was 16 my hoopty made other hoopties looked good. lol
