great present is right!! damn..i would have luved it if my parents paid :D

hehe..only bad thing i found bout getting a solara as a first time car is that you do a lot of stupid inexperienced driving things w/ it..lol..like i backed up into a car/rear ended a car w/ my solara, hit a couple of curbs learning how to park :roll:, little stuff like that...that's when having crappy old boat would be nice!! that's ok..i still haven't regretted having a solara as my first car. :D

(i made it sound like i'm a horrible driver and that i beat my car up..lol..but don't worry, when i backed up into someone there was no damage, when i rear ended someone it was at a red light and they didn't even notice that i bumped them...and the curbs..well i'll be honest, i suck at parking, but curbs don't scare me as much as they used to..and of course my rims are scrape free right now cause the messed up on was replaced!)

Good luck!

Hey if you're parking and you're not real sure where the curb is, turn your power mirror so you can see the curb. It also works for shining high beams back at people on the highway behind you :roll: .

are you kiddin! i live by my mirrors to park! i have a good idea of where the curb is, but i'd usually get somewhat close and then back up closer to the curb..i don't trust people who drive by so i usually get as close to the curb as i can w/out the rim touching the curb..i'm actually pretty picky w/ it..lol..i like to see how close i can get w/out touching :D naptown solara is right..where's booth boy! lol

and who's that who said girls are bad drivers..hahah..i'll smack ya! :lol:
