Probably the 91 honda accord I bought from my friend Vinnie when I was going to school. I wanted a standard car so I sold my mint 92 oldsmobile cutlass calais for a shit box honda. I was just so thrilled to own a manual car. Nevermind the radio stopped working, the windows fell out of track, the tires were bald, every suspension joint on the car was loose and shot, the hood latch didn’t work, the hood came up and smashed the windshield and moon roof on the 90, the timing belt broke at an intersection… that’s about all i can think of.

It got 32 miles to the gallon though which was good because I was commuting to rochester daily but man I think it might have been a larger pile of shit than le cakkord. Minus the cigarette and vomit stench 😛

No it was pretty bad. maybe no axe holes in it but just as beat only a 2 door ex. ballin.

Instead of it smelling like fecal matter and stale nicotine and tar that seems to stick to you and jay wonch like the plague it just smelled like all my other cars do… car parts and parts washing fluid. 😛

Imac - $1200 When I was only making $9k/year during my 2nd year of college.

It’s still working great for me and I love it, but I had to eat raymond noodles for 6 months because I spent all my money.

Hey come on now I did tons of shit to it in 6 months lol. I think I only spent a few weeks on that caliper, it was mainly part searching. Its not my fault BMW is retarded and used multiple manufacturers of calipers for a single car gen.
