Could you explain that a lil more?

The car cost 6500... My bank will only go about 1000 over blue book on a car in that price range. The blue book for the BMW is 4325. Plus, I figure it will cost about 1000 dollars extra to go down and get the car, then liscences it etc and drive back.

So I'm talking about $7500 here. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

No... My loan officer is somehow actually a relative, and my entire family (even distant) know about my helpless addiction to cars.

Anybody got something that will fit a 6'9" dude and get good gas mileage/performance? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

They're money pits, but nice cars. If ya dont have the money to keep putting in it, I wouldnt recommend it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif.

You're 6'9''? **** you didn't look that tall....i guess i'm used to tall people...3 of my friends are 6'5" and over...but **** 6'9" is tall.

I would wait for something more local personally....not worth the extra money. But i guess if your looking for something specific it might be hard to find....?

1993 Lincoln Mark VIII (air ride failure, junked)

1994 Ford Crown Vic P71 (sold)

1974 BMW 2002 (sold)

1987 Volkswagen Fox (POS, junked)

1974 Honda CB750 (Still have, junk, never ran on all 4 cylinders, now in pieces)

1991 Honda Accord (sold, my sisters car but I did all the work...)

1996 Ford Escort Station Wagon (gave to my grandpa)

1987 Porsche 924s (Daily Driver)

I think that's it. Just want some good handling, good acceleration, decent gas mileage and good looks to get me through the rest of college. I have to enjoy whatever I get or I'll just start looking for something else.
