I was faced with a descision today...

We have to sell one of our cars (We have too many lol)

So, my dad asked me if I'd rather have an older car than the one I have now...

My car gives me problems as it is, it sucks... I wanna move to something simple that doesnt have so many problems that we dont know what to do...

The cars are,

1993 Caprice 9c1

or a 1975 Chevy Nova

Thing is, the Nova is a hatch, and if I take the nova I get some of the money that we get from selling the Caprice (Which would be used to get a bigger amp and fix it up) and In the Nova I can have a wall(Back seats are worthless anyways)...

Pros:

Nova- Wall, Faster, Simple, Lighter, Hatch, original, prats are easy to get, easier to work on

Caprice- Bigger,"Gangsta-er", Trunk car ( More security), Cop car, Discreet, you wouldnt think it had a system in it, hard to break into (unless its a window break)

Cons:

Nova- System out in plain sight, needs a little work, isnt as "Cool" by other people's standards, Easy to break into, Would be scared to park it anywhere.

Caprice- Too Complicated, Breaks down all the time, needs work, BIG, hard to work on, cant put what I want to into it.

I mean, I could throw a black blanket over the wall at night that wounldnt be so noticable(both these cars stay outside) and I would probably black out the back windows, but I still would be afraid to leave it anywhere for longer periods of time... Im not worried about the amp or box because the amp is gonna be under the box for the most part..It's the speakers that I'm worried about.. BUT it would be easier to reach my goal of 150 this year...

Idk, Ill add more onto this later

Nova, spend 400 dollars and get a 791 Viper alarm, backup battery, extra sirens, glass break sensor and get it installed.

Do whichever you think is better, dont change cars because of the audio. It'd be stupid.

It's a big bonus -of course. If the nova runs better I say go nova. I'd rather drive a piece of shit that wont fail me than something that looks pretty good and breaks down once a week

 
The nove needs bearings, thats it, and the caprice does break down at least once every 2 weeks... The last time we fixed it, it ran for 15 minutes then broke down again.. its been running for almost a week and a half now, Im getting worried...

Its not like I haul people around, its just my brother and me most the time

I'd probably go with the nova if it's more reliable. It'd be better to spend some money on just an alarm then spend a lot more constantly fixing the caprice. Money spent fixing the car is money that could have been spent on car audio //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
