actually isaac, i got a really dark metallic gray on my S30 and it seems to compliment, almost exagerate the lines, every time i pull in the garage it has such a agressive, low slung look to it. lol

had tranny problems with my dads sonata. only once, covered by warranty, never has had a problem with the trans again. did have a wierd issue with running like **** (was just a couple sensors) when it sat outside. also, the Cd player sounds like the track for the sensor is stripped so it makes a grindy noise, doesnt read CD's, and the face of it doesnt light up (just where it tells the time and w/e) but that was an 02. my sisters has never had a problem other than her, rear ended some dude fawkin hard.

I wear a mask when I drive it so no one knows it's me. On the bright side, I'm getting 51mpg on the freeway.

You would have to be brave to take that on the freeway down here because of the increased risk of death. Alot of people here drive not only big trucks but then they lift them too. Really big trucks like 3/4 ton or bigger. I actually saw a lifted tow truck yesterday. And then we are a retirement town on top of all that.

But it more than cut in half my gas costs. That will be nice this summer with $5/gal gas.

i couldn't find a picture of the interior of a geo in the whole 2 min that i was willing to look for it. perhaps you could take one and post it for me to help prove my point?

i'm not going to tell you that all hyundai's are great. that would be a lie. but the gk tiburon is not a bad car. sure there are a few recalls on them but not more than the rest of the car companies. like i said i'm not going to tell you that the earlier ones were good cars cause they aren't. but the new stuff is doing pretty good. little known fact the early engines were provided by mitsu. and the newer ones are the same that you find in the new dodge srt-4. i will totally agree that a supra is better than my car. i will listen to the argument that a celica is better. but to tell me that a tercel is better just because it has a t on the front is a out right lie. it's a good car it's not its fault that it has a crooked h on it.
oooh look at the T this car is soooooo hot.
