Wow! eleven pages in four days. took me an hour to plow through it.

Ummm, Katie. The car sounded like junk until I saw the pictures. Then it looked like junk. Pretty sure it is junk. There's lot's better cars around to throw money away on.

I too have thrown away countless thousands of mostly my own money, but also of other generous people's money, and these days of what should be my kids' money, on cars. Some of these were almost as junky as the one you're looking at, but not quite as junky. There's nothing wrong with spending every ounce of your earning potential on a cool car. Lot's of people do it. Cars make people happy.

Forget all that live long and prosper mumbo jumbo that's just passed by. It doesn't mean *****. Do heed the mechanical advice though. The car is junk.

Go spend your grandma's money on a better car. Simple advice. As far as gettin' it on with the present owner goes, not a bad idea. Date him for a while and drive the piss out of his car until it breaks (shouldn't take long) then dump him.

Ah to be young again!
