Hmm, keeping cars in storage all the time isn't exactly a good idea.

Personally, I'd have a caterham as a daily driver, but I do have a few screws loose in my head

I see stuff like the atom and caterham as 4 wheeled motorcycles, so there. Speaking of which, I'm considering getting a 250CC motorcycle once I get my Learners licence. Any good recommendations? Honda seems to pop up quiet frequently in discussions with my friends.

lol my 98ft/tq out of my 1.6L motor of fury is sooooooooo fast! Vrrrrrrrrroooooooommmmmmmmmmm!

the best part about the 1990-1994 OBDI miata's is with a 10-12-14-16mm socket you can take the entire car apart and put it back together.

tho on the other one it is like 210tq 230hp.... on a good tune... that i dont have =(

I understand, I just don't agree. I think the miata is cool and all... but honestly it really does look gay. Also, 2 seats is kinda lame. I think a WRX would be more of a #1 car.

Perfect balance of fun, economy, storage, etc... plus it's reliable.

If your car was shaped like a brick and weighed over 3000lbs, I'm sure you'd need more power to consider it a driver's car.

Hard-Top + full tank o gas + spare + driver (180) + some bling bling 15's = 2700ish.

and again the 240 Turbos came with moar than 96ft/tq

But i'm glad you cant let things drop and bring it up in a passive-aggressive way. Srly. Can you least TRY and not act like a jerk?

You really don't know when to let things drop.
