Kinda why I don't have one.

My plans are first to get something that's a more reasonable daily driver than the Miata, and make the Miata a sunny time play toy. Then when I have a shit ton of cash to blow I want to add a small/midsize FR sports car to the stable, basically a 951 or FD, both of which are money pits. Too bad nobody makes a car like these right now.

4-door Honda Civic Si FTW! Or if you're thinking used, the 4-door GSR is always a great practical/economic/fun-to-daily-drive choice.

Anyways, I kinda like it. Although, I would have gone with silver rims instead of chrome, but that's me.

I want something a bit more luxurious than a Civic.

I love the sound of those cars... like a troling shrimp-boat. Sounds almost like an old-school saab.

Cool beans, if you ask me :thumbup:
