Keeping the 330 is definitely an option, but the wife has a 7 year old Passat that we are looking to replace. So, we'd trade the 330 and the Passat for something like an MDX or and get a small eco-car as second ride. Though the Solstice is interesting...
spoon & mugen (or mtec) have several sport and race vehicles already fitted so there is some items starting to emerge - the aftermarket takes a little while to respond but usually within 1 year you have everything you'll need outside of major ecu work
But, the Fit has been doing time in Europe and Japan for many years already, so there should be a developed aftermarket, should there not? It would just be a matter of making those parts available in the States?
yes it does but brakes quite well...i'm going to be selling my Element when i move this summer and will be looking at the Fit and possibly a used 190E Evo, WRX, 328is or M3 (e30 or e36 only), or civic si sedan that comes out this fall
Drum brakes. Makes me think of the unrestored and well abused '72 Cutlass I used to drive.
The main problem with the 330 is the lack of trunk space (yard supplies, lumber, and triathlon gear take up a lot of space). I thought about the new GTI, but its pretty pricey once optioned up. On a daily basis, though, the 330 is an absolute blast to drive. Which is why I would want to upgrade the Fit (assuming I go that route).
