The clutch burns when you begin to let it out. The longer you are between your foot off the clutch and on the clutch (at the engagement point where it starts to grab) the more it burns or slips. If youi got a high powered car you can burn your clutch out in no time.. And your engagement point gets worse and worse. You will smell it... Its smells like burnt metal kinda
just sent you a message on inbox, lets talk there or you can add me on facebook and we can talk there too more, Migue Tran.

Well. I don't need to attract chicks .. I got a HBW 7.5 that's amazing and doenst care about all the flashy stuff. We both work full time and together to build our savings to buy a home one day. So I guess my perspective is a bit more practical. *shrugs*

I can say that having a nice car helps once I get them in it. I drive a 2011 Cadillac CTS--it's got a lot of bells and whistles. I love that car--I love driving it...and I love being seen driving it.

I never mention my car to my plates unless they ask. And I really don't think it makes THAT much of a difference. I find that confidence and a muscular body go a lot farther for sex appeal.

My opinion: if you like luxury vehicles, get one. I went from a 2006 Jeep Wrangler to the Caddy and don't regret it. I'll work TWO jobs if I have to in order to keep it.
Yes, exactly. I can feel it motivates me to work 2 jobs if needed to get a beautful car i love. People have their own loves, some love human beings, some love money, some love their own body, some love body building, some love attracting women, and certainly i love beautiful cars. And it motivates me to work on myself too!

If that is not adventure then what is? Do you know what the term adventure means? It means that there is a goal that you might not be able to accomplish, or you might be, then you chase that goal and try to accomplish it. What are you talking about? I can't buy the car? Who said that? How did you come to that conclusion? If I have a budjet of 20k euro then what is the "impossileness" of getting 10k more? It is an adventure. That's why it is called an adventure. I I have already gotten 20k which is twice as much as 10k then what is the impossibleness with getting 10k? Negative people like you are the people who fails.
If your idea of an adventure is to raise $10k, then you have zero sense of adventure, especially by your own definition of it being something you “might not be able to accomplish”. THAT is what’s stupid. I also never said that it was “impossible”; what I wrote was that you were regurgitating the marketing you read all over the website of the vehicles you’re lusting after. I’m not being negative; I’m pointing out your weird idea of an “adventure”.

Just because you have failed, does not mean others will fail. Just because you have failed, there is no no need to pull others down too.just a eighteen ear old teenager dreaming about a nice and cool car and you come here telling that it is impossible. Who are you? What do you know about any success? You have never succeeded so how can you know about it?
I have failed. I have failed hundreds of times. This is why I succeed beyond my wildest dreams. I’m not afraid of failure; I welcome it. I encourage others to succeed, but not in the short-term manner you are trying to. Failure is what breeds success. However, as I said before, I’m not telling you that it’s impossible. And you also have zero f*cking idea on what I have and have not succeeded in, so don’t go around saying that I have “never succeeded”. My advice to you is to take your $20k, learn how to make money with your money, and THEN buy a nice and cool car. THAT is what success is. What you’re trying to do is known as becoming “n*gger rich”.

Whether you act or not, it is always acting. For example, a millionaire knows that he is inch so you think that he does not need to act rich. But think more deeper: he cannot act poor. So if he cannot act poor, he will act rich. And is there a rich person? Any person has someone who has more than him. It is a vicious circle if you think in terms of rich and poor. If you can transcend that duality, will you come to a real richness, an inner richness. If you can get out of your constant conflict between rich and poor, only then will you accomplish a real inner richness and that has nothing to do with material. Material richness is just some dead paper that has no life in it; very superficial. A real richness is inside one, and that richness brings contentment, happiness, blissfulness - that is the real richness what Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira, Krishna, Mohammed, Lao-tzu is talkin about. Because how can you feel poor? Or how can you feel inferior when you are contended, when you feel happiness and blissfulness, how can you feel like a poor person anymore? It is impossible to feel sadness when you feel happiness. It is like day and night. Hm there is day how can there be night? An vice vierca, when it is night, how can there be day at the same time?
There is a difference between acting like you’re rich, and BEING rich. Your semantics about “acting” are irrelevant and frankly incoherent. And what we are talking about here is clearly MATERIAL WEALTH. Then you go on this incoherent philosophical rant about “inner richness” and all that nonsense, while in a previous post you write:

Now if I buy this car, it can attract many rich people and seeing how my situation is with my family, they.might help. Or at least some connection is made with the rich people. Certainly if you drive a Audi rs5, you will attract more rich people in those 4 or 5 years the car can handle than with a mini van for your whole lifetimebut perhaps, who knows, some people who have been jealous of me might become even more jealous and they will kill me. Or maybe someone who hates me, hates me even more for having such an awesome car. An many times, in fact most of the time, hatred is born through jealous, so life is very balanced. No worries.
Clearly you are contradicting yourself.
As I said before, wealthy people recognize other wealthy people, as well as people who are not yet wealthy but have the MINDSET. You do not have the mindset. My advice to you is to INVEST your $20k into your financial education so that you can buy as many cars as you want later on in your life. Myself and other posters are trying to help you by saying the same thing. You need to LISTEN to us, because we’ve been 18 before and are telling you the things we often wish we learned at that age.
Finally, here is an article I found that is highly relevant to you. Skip to the part where it starts at “Why do poor people make stupid, illogical decisions to buy status symbols?”: http://tressiemc.com/2013/10/29/the-logic-of-stupid-poor-people/

I will reply when I get back to computer, it is almost impossible to write such a good reply back with phone.

There is no contradiction, life and death are two sides of the same thing. Death certainly purifies you, clears you from all your miseries, from all your greeds. Now I am not even afraid of death, how can I worry about any financial problem? I am willing to take such risks that it might take my life with it. That is what real risk is about. A risk that you might not lose anything important, then what kind of risk is it? If a risk is bigger the more valuable thing you might lose with it, then certainly a risk that puts your life on the line must be the biggest risk there is. Only if you are ready to risk your life on the risk will you be payed by life itself. If you only can risk with a dead paper, then only will you be rewarded by a dead paper. So it is simply, logical mathematic. It is not a quetion about stupidity, or ignorance. It is abolutely logical and mathematical.

And then you said something about impossibleness and my adventure. Lets start with the impossibleness. You certainly said that I can't affort, then if i can not, then how can I? If I can not, then it is impossible. If I could, then it is possible. Can you see your own blidness? Can you see t he differece of the two? Of impossible and possible? Of could and can not?

And you said that my idea of adventure is stupid. My idea of adventure was the best. Because what kind of adventure is it, if you can get to the goal 100% sure? My idea was that, you might archieve your goal, you might not. And if that is stupid, then logically I think your idea of adventure is one where you will 100% get to your goal, archieve it. Then that is not an adventure at all. You already can take it for granted that you will get there. It is same as saying an adventure is impossible to reach the goal. Only a adventure where you either 100% get to the goal or 100% is stupid. How can a adventure where you might or might not archieve the goal, be stupid? You must be stupid. Because I simply cant understand an ad venture where you already know the conclusion. That is not what the term adventure means. Adventure means you go to the unknowness, you dont know, and you go through it, find and look, search and find.

Dude, what the HELL are you talking about? I call you out on your desire to attract wealthy people who will realize you're faking it immediately, and you go on this bumbling philosophical rant that has NOTHING to do with ANYTHING we are talking about.

Show me where I told you that your "adventure" of raising $10k to buy a car is "impossible". Show us.

If you had ANY financial sense, you would realize that being able to afford something goes beyond the initial acquisition. Once you pay the capital cost, can you afford the fuel, maintenance, registration, taxes, and insurance? Can you afford all of those recurring expenses AND maintain a lifestyle that doesn't revolve around your car? Many people who go out and buy an expensive vehicle after getting some kind of windfall often end up having the car OWN THEM and eventually lose the car and all the money they foolishly put into it.

As I said before, take your money and invest it in your financial education. Buy a reliable and economic used car (if you even need one) and invest the rest of the money. That's how wealthy people get started. Once you learn, apply what you learn, and go through the failure and successes, THEN you'll be able to not only afford any and as many cars as you wish, you will also attract wealthy people into your life who will enrich you beyond financial means alone. Your half-baked idea of buying a nice car to attract wealthy people is like the facade of a building; get up close and you can tell it's fake.
