I am looking for a used car, but they cost around $10000. My mom does not want me to waste $10000 on a car that I will be only driving for a year ( I am going to college next year and most do not allow cars on campus for freshman). My mom made a deal with me. She will buy a new car and let me drive it for a year, then she will drive the car. I was little skeptikal, because I was worried that she would pick a Licon Town Car or something. But then while I looking at the Acura RSX on teh internet, she goes...."I like that car, why don't you get that". I was so surprised! But now I am worried about another thing. People are gonna look at me as a spoiled brat, but I am not. I don't mind teh idea, but I know to some, i iwll be looked at as a spoiled brat. That kind of tarnished my image. What do you think?

Two words...

TYPE-S

That's all you need to know. Now go tell mommy the two words and go to the nearest Acura dealership and tell the salesmen the two words and you're all set.

200-hp of i-vtec lovin baby! The ability to clock low to mid 14's stock! Yummy!

well you will be spoiled, but just be thankful to your mom and don't worry about the rest of the stuff.
