Default hello all, from indiana

my name is tony. last week i sold my slammed 88 Chevy pickup truck to embark on an adventure of attempting to find a gas mileage friendly, fun to drive, show quality car for me to drive through the next handful of years. my search ended yesterday morning when i put a hold on a blue 1999 VW Beetle gls 5 speed. i am so stoked to be buying this car. it is located near Chicago so tmrw morning i am waking up bright and early and my parents and i are going to jet over there and pick it up. i plan to lower the car and put some wheels on it, maybe some big inch black bbs's. i plan on giving it a tune up in the audio department as well.
I just graduated from McCutcheon high school yesterday afternoon so i wanted something reliable and easy on the gas fund to drive.
check out some pictures of my new ride!!!
