Anyone think my car looks good?
Anyone think my car looks good?
I am really torn, for some reason I don't think this car looks good at all anymore. I got it with 69,000 miles a year 1/2 ago and it was perfect (I mean PERFECT) and now, after old man winter took it's toll, it's just not exciting me the way it did when I got it.

Not sure what to tell you... Get something else, no reason on keeping a car because others like it and you don't.

What about just putting some Gfx's on it and changing the interior. I hated (and still do hate) my car but its a project that I am working on and making it to my standards.

I like it, but I do know how you feel. I don't htink I would like my car as much as I do today if I haven't put so much time into it. I bought it in '99 (about a month after graduation) then last summer I did a complete repaint, then this summer I redid the interior. I've found that when spending a lot of time working on cars, you grow fond of them, they become unique and special to you. Sure, mine's an 86 SC, big deal, but it's mine, it's the Blue Meanie, and to me that means a lot.

It happens. When I got my car last September, I LOVED it. I would just look at it in the driveway. After winter, I washed it by hand for the first time in months and noticed how much winter sucks. And now that I cracked the nose, I feel like it's ugly as hell even though you can't notice it. I have the money to fix the front or get new exhaust and my friends all tell me to get the exhaust cause they can't even tell the front is cracked. I still wouldn't sell my car (well, unless I could find a sweet black IROC or 91/92 Z28
) I don't know what to tell ya.. I think your car looks awesome.

I drove my Camaro a little last winter getting this and that done to it. NEVER again. My paint was beat up because of this. I was able to convince the paint shop to repaint my car in April and it will never see snow, salt, ice and am considering rain, ever again. If you are tired of your car then sell(you will have no problem doing that) and look for another. If you don't want to sell then customize a little. BTW that is a real nice car.
