WTF! i think someone loosened my lugs(prolly my ex), that shit skidded for 20 ft to a stop and i jumped out and chased my fuggin tire down the street..... it was late so there was nobody drivin on the road where i was thankfully....back bumper is bent out, and the lug bolts are stripped on three of the threads, plus the rotor is scraped up pretty bad.... onto the red car.. its a 4cyl that gets 20 mpg's, tops out at 85mph, has no getup and go whatsoever, and its an automatic with a cloth interior.... rant over. im lookin to get something with either 4wd, or awd, thats on the small sidegets good mpgs and has "the look"... i really want this jag : <a href="http://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/1936090695.html" target="_blank">http://cnj.craigslist.org/cto/1936090695.html</a> , my bro has had his 02 xtype since2005 and he got it with 50k and now it has 120k, and hes never had a single problem with it. he averages 26 mpgs , it has awd, a sport mode and leather. its the most practical for me right now and ill get back into the stangs after i graduate college, but right now i need something thats not gonna break and wont get stuck 10,000,000 times in the snow... ima either get an xtype, a wrx, or a ranger...... how much should i ask for my cars? the black car as 94k, and the red car has 64k</blockquote>
