In my book a 2000 model year vehicle is 12 years old.Age really doesn't matter on vehicles today as it did in the past.

I know. I watched tornado cars from Joplin go for "good condition" money and they were totaled. 'Makes me wonder what was going to get passed off as "clean, low mileage" cars a few months later.

I built a couple of them with minor damage. (mostly hail damage) but they still had reconstructed titles verified by the state troopers.

Well I'm pretty sure I'm not buying my 17 year old daughter a A8..ha She is really bumbed out that the A4 did not work out, but understands that with someone turning the miles back makes the car is real suspect. I got her thinking that the 2004 2005 Grand Prix is the car for her...so our hunt continues...still looking for a A4 as well. I found a 2002 Saab that looks good but she is not too wild about that one.

Some of you are wondering why I"m getting her such a nice car, she is a straight A student and got accepted to University Of Michigan for the fall semester and is going to commute since it is only 45 mins away for the first two years and that is saving us way more than the car will cost.

Id like to get her a newer car but don't want to pay the full coverage insurance, I've already got 5 cars with full coverage and full coverage for a teen are outrageous.

Especially here in Michigan. My 3 older kids didn't get their license til they were 18. I actually had to fight with my insurance company that my kids did not have a license at 16yrs old, and were not driving my vehicles.
