[BACKGROUND]
Ever since I was little I loved watching racing on TV and after I got my drivers license (3 or so years ago) I have had a mad passion for driving fast.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
So here I am, 19 (almost 20) years old, no job (aka no 'big' money), two cars and an incedible desire to 'tear it up' on the road. My cars are a 1998 Mercedes SLK230 and a 2000 Honda Accord v6. Both are decent cars and the Mercedes is quite fast...however they are not as fast as I want. So, I looked around and decided on a few cars I'd rather have (realistically).
(1) Nissan 350z
(2) Mazda RX-7
(3) Dodge SRT-4
(4) Subaru Impreza
(5) Toyota MR2
All are cars I like (obviously). But after months and months of arguing/debating with my parents, it seems a new car is out of the question. They REALLY don't want me getting rid of my current cars and since I haven't had a job forever I haven't really had an opportunity to save up for one. So, I've decided I'm more than likely going to try and mod my Honda, but I'd like some advice first. Should I just get a job and save for one of the cars listed above or should I just mod my Honda? I really want to be faster than most people I see daily.
What should I do? I know I will need a job and I should have one anyways...but yeah.
I haven't been able to think about much lately other than having a really fast car and driving it all the time.
Also, I don't want to mod the Mercedes...it just seems wrong and if I mod the Honda, I will need to change the transmission, change the exhaust (it's a fake dual right now), more than likely supercharge it, lighten it up etc... etc... -- Which is where I am confused. Do I try and buy a better car where I wont have to spend as much on tuning or do I spend a lot on tuning my Honda?
Input please.
