you would be better off getting the 03-05 and building off that. no sense in keeping a 99

the 99 has sentimental value... the only real difference i know of is the ecotec which is why id engine swap and the head lights which i dont like all too much

I wish I could tell my parents to get stuff for me. I'd just get a kick in the junk for being a demanding little @!#$.

considering you're still in highchool.....and the current state of the economy, maybe you should worry about holding onto your money(or apparently your parents) and not dumping it into a crappy car that won't be worth dick.

And I speak from experience.

ok, so 2.5 weeks until it's time to enter the real world. Even more reason to be smart about where you go pissing money away.

When you're older... you're realize an old econobox is a crappy thing to place any sentimental value on. It's just a car, dude.

^^^^^^ Im with him...... but get a big ass GM car instead.

Youd be better off finding a car like yours in a junkyard with a good body and suspension, but with a bad engine..... and using your current roller derby car for the parts car.
