Again... you are wrong. There was a Geo Metro XFI that sold for $7k on ebay in May. Popular? Yep.

This is a real car to buy if you want something small and "nice".

I have something that gets better mileage, and it will pull a low 12 sec quarter mile. haha
Don't see the fun in a Metro unless you are going to make it respectably fast just to mess with people. lol

Did not say they were not popular...
But not because they are cool. haha

And as I said..
If you are talking about affording a car, and that's all you can get, I understand owning a Metro.

I bought my Z for $600..
Think I got more bang for my buck.
The M5.. That's a car I could enjoy.
You have good taste in there Nismo, just not in a Metro. haha

It's a bloody clown car.

Showing me that the highest selling Metro went for $7k drives my point further home.
Underwear has sold for more.
Don't see the angle you were going it.

Love your Metro. I respect that. But it is what it is.

Geo's are the cars that GM didn't want to put the name Chevy or Pontiac on.

They are the red headed step child of the GM world.

Bad cars? No... Just not cool. Just not my thing.

$200 & 50mpg ... or $600 & 20mpg (pretty hard choice). I commute about 70 miles per day. I guess I could pride myself on wasting fuel if I drove a gas guzzler all around.

That made no coherent sense at all... and I think you have a fetish with buttholes and underwear.

I'm not saying that my Geo Metro is "cool" ... nor do I care that you don't think it is. I bought it for the 50mpg feature. If I was worried about style (as apparently you are Ratfink) I would cruise my BMW everywhere at 20mpg.

I am not a tree hugger. As long as I can afford the 30mpg I get on the hwy in my Z, I will drive it. Yes it got 30 and sometimes more with triple webers.
I ride my motorcycle for my mpg.

I think I made sense just fine.

When the best example of a car goes for $7k, that is not saying that they are really sought after.
However, I do see your point. I see that if a Metro goes for $7k, it must have something that someone loves. Still not worth the $7k. That's nuts.
I see the point you were making.


I am not the demographic that the Geo was created for.

These are all my opinions based on me weighing the facts.

It's a great car for someone that like driving something slow, and boring looking, that's cheap.
My dad would love it no doubt.
But, I want to live damnit! haha


Maybe I do like buttholes? As long as it's on a woman. I don't like underwear too much except for mine. Helps with things like zippers.
Underwear on women is just in the way.

Yeah...

I killed this thread. I should be banned.

I don't know why I am such an *** sometimes, but I just can't help myself. I think my room mate is rubbing off on me.

I am just a Metro hater. no excuses.
