It's a 1996 Chevy Cavalier in AWESOME shape (Teal...I'll re-paint it at some point).
Interior is very clean and in good shape.
4 cylinder
2.2L engine (I believe)
Comfortable seats
Aprox. 120 hp (not sure the exact torque)
Quiet
Aprox. 30 mpg.
A/C (I live in a desert climate...)
Automatic transmission.
HUGE trunk
Airbags
Nice, Clean engine kept in VERY good shape (was used to go to and from work.)
$3500 Canadian (My mom paid, but I have to pay her back in payments every month )
LoL, owning a car @ age 15 sounds completely absurd to me as a Dane... For one thing, you have to be 18 to obtain a license in Denmark. For the other, cars are generally speaking 3 times as expensive in Denmark as in the US, so parents don't go about buying cars for their kids like in the US & Canada.
Then ther's the expensive gas, insurance and plenty of other fees. I don't even think most people here get cars until they've completed their educations and gotten full-time jobs.
Anyway congrats with the car, although I'd much prefer something with manual transmission instead of auto.
I mean seriously - what's fun about driving a car that practically drives itself?
