“The seats are made out of a material similar to what wet suits are made out of so you can literally just take a hose and spray the inside of the car down,” Mrs.Beirman said.

Junior Samantha Tallant took an ordinary 96 Honda civic and turned into something extraordinary. The exterior is purple and the interior is purple as well with a zebra design.

“My dad painted the car for me because he owns his own body.”  Tallant said.

The color of the car isn’t the only reason Tallant likes her car.

“Another reason I got my car was because I drove a stick shift before so I wanted a stick shift car,” Tallant said.

There are few special cars that stand out. When looking across the lot, one may see the top of a circular shaped car, belonging to senior Lucas Carrel.

“My car is an orange bubble shaped car,” Carrel said. “I actually got two cars, one nicer than the other, and put them together to make the car I have now. One thing that special about my car is the horn because it sounds like the old fashioned cars.”

Lucas finished   the car when he was fifteen and has been using it every day since.

After searching for a while, sophomore Grant Perkins found a car he fell in love with. Trying to stay in his price range and find a car that fit him well was hard, but Perkins pulled it off.  “I got my car two months before my 16th birthday and you could say I was more than excited,” Perkins said. “It’s a black Mazda 305. I drive it pretty much every day and I take it everywhere.” Like all cars, Grant’s has a few flaws; one being the high price of washing his car, and another being the dent inside his passenger car door. “Ahh, the dent,” Perkins said. “One of my friends opened the door while I was driving so I turned around to see him and when I turned I hit something and boom. There was a dent in my car.” Dent or not, Perkins loves his Mazda.
