<p>Hey all,
My parents bought me a car when I became a senior. I have 2000 Ford Focus.
What about you guys?
Do you all have a car? What type and when did you get it(as a soph, junior, or senior)? Did you have to buy it wiht your money or did your parents buy one for you?</p>
<p>um beginning of senior year, 1998 toyota camry. regretted it ever since.</p>
<p>Gas prices are seriously putting a dent in my allowance.</p>
<p>Yes, I agree.
Man, at least you had a Japanese car that take us much less gas as opposed to my American car that just drinks the oil. Ford.</p>
<p>I have an 06 Chevy Aveo.
I got it the beginning of the summer after junior year. My parents did buy it, but I pay for gas, and I'm not going to be allowed to take it to school in the fall, my sister will get it then. </p>
<p>I'm really going to miss it!</p>
<p>i have a 1987 lincoln, its my dads old car. i got it when i could drive.</p>
<p>Me + my twin brother saved up for a car (about 5k for a 03 Cavalier with 92k miles). We bought it half-way through junior year</p>
<p>I just got my Dad's old 05 Altima when I got my license.</p>
<p>I just got an '06 Civic a few weeks ago as a senior.</p>
<p>'01 altima as a sophomore. my parents bought a minivan, so they didn't need the sedan</p>
<p>It's almost the end of the year, and I still don't have a car. I'm thinking of saving some money and not get one until the end of my freshman year in college. :|</p>
<p>i got an 05 infiniti G35 before the beginning of my senior year</p>
<p>I turned 16 at the end of sophomore year. My parents bought me a car a month after I got my license. Got a brand new Jeep Liberty, but I did have to pay for half of it.</p>

<p>Yeah that's pretty nice. And I basically don't do any maintenance on it except for oil change, air filters, occasional car wash, etc and it runs just fine. I don't know how Toyota does it but their cars last FOREVER. Yeah ford has quite a bit to learn from toyota in terms of financial management as well as manufacturing, quality control and R&D.</p>
<p>Ford is just going downhill.
To make a duplicate key for Ford car, you have to take the key to the Ford dealership and pay them $85. You can't get it from anywhere else because it has a special chip in it.</p>
<p>Honda accord, when i was 17, sweet freedom baby....and it runs about 200miles on a full tank.</p>
<p>Volvo S80 T6, when i got my licence(when i turned 16). parents paid for it, along with gas and insurance</p>
<p>i have a '97 grand prix that i got a few months before i turned 16.</p>
<p>it was my counsin's car that my aunt bought him (used, of course), and when he went to college he couldn't use it anymore, so she gave it to me.</p>
<p>it's got 127,000 or so miles on it, and it's not in perfect shape, but it gets me where i need to go and i love it :) i pay for gas and sometimes insurance, depending on if my mom remembers to ask me for the money ;)</p>
<p>I got a 2007 subaru impreza junior year, i pay insurance and gas. payed 45 just to fill it up today :(</p>
<p>I got the family car the day I turned sixteen, sophomore year - a 2000 Chrystler Sebring.</p>
<p>I used my parents car too much so summer after sophomore year they bought me a '92 Chevvy Lumina. I loved that baby! Now they traded that in for my mother's new car and I got her '95 Jeep</p>
