Oh yeah, now I remember that color. Looked awful once the paint faded/peeled.

Don't remind me... I was paying ~$250 a month on a 3 year old Kia Forte Koup SX when I was 18.

Black looks great... for the 5 seconds that it stays clean. But I love your choice in both vehicle and that cool orange color!

This Roadmaster is calling your name! Ultra cool (or Ultra geek?) for a 17 year old. So much cheaper than that newer car. With some of the savings you could paint it many times over, but the wrap idea is interesting. Insurance will be very expensive for a young male. You could probably go with just liability and state minimum coverage on this beauty and cross your fingers you don't wreck it. It could also serve as your first apartment. This is starting to make a lot of sense, to me at least...€

4WD outfitters where I live have some wicked trucks with that wrap - really some head turners … (they get close and then you have to look up) ...
