For me, it's the VW Beetle or the Toaster with Wheels, the Scion xB. :p

A Smart car.. Unless I was in city with really tiny streets and almost no parking space.
I can't believe they're even trying to sell them in Tampa. Insane. You don't even get that much more mileage for riding around in something that absurdly small.

LOL!
And I have to say Firecube: though I'm not sure I'd ever buy one myself, the new xB actually looks pretty nice. A hell of a lot better than that boxy, short-bus version they used to be.

I haven't seen the new xB. I should leave my room more often than not.

most of the cars on the road today.
lifted trucks with stock wheels, tiny econoshitboxes (scion), ugly ass post-80's bmw's/mercedes/audis, anything with mismatched body panels and/or walmart hubcaps, hybrids.
what do i drive right now? a 99 626. i'm gonna start work on a miata project come summertime though. looking at a garrett turbo kit (CARB EO'd, bitches) and some cusco shocks among other things.

You get all elitest and then say you're driving a 10 year old Mazda that only old people bought new?

Then go on to say that you're going to start work on the quintessential chick car?

I seriously hope you're joking, because otherwise you're just as bad as the rest of the posers out there making their late-model imports out to be "the shit".

it's called being 17. and at least my car doesn't have obnoxious fartcan exhaust/unpainted fiberglass fenders/other horrible shit that people do to their cars.

coming from someone who probably doesn't even know what a motor looks like. as if i even need to validate myself to you.
unless you can show me your ase certs, restorations or track cars, your opinion means nothing. though seeing as you posted asinine drivel in a failed attempt to own me over the internet, i doubt you can prove anything beyond the fact that you're a moron who shouldn't discuss subjects he doesn't understand.
Nothing wrong with Miata's. Some of the nose styles are ugly, but eh. They fill the same small, quirky niche as Midgets, Karmann Ghias, and Fieros.
Azteks though are an abomination. Really believe the story that they ok'd parts separately, and then just threw them all together.

He didn't have to own you. You owned yourself. You make fun of "fartcan" exausts, yet you want to put a dogwhistle underneath your hood and other things like shocks and what-not. Anyone who knows anything about cars knows that if put a turbo on a car and want to run anywhere above 4-6 psi, you're going to need a "fartcan" exuast or else bad things can happen to your engine. Not to bash you with that last statement, but, you're contradicting yourself on so many levels right now. Someone correct me if I am biased or wrong. I think that the whole "I wanna be 2Fast2Furious" thing is overatted and a waste of money, IMHO.

there's a difference between a non-functional exhaust tip that raises your exhaust note to a deafening scream and putting on a functional exhaust system designed to alleviate a small amount backpressure. believe it or not, you don't have to run straight pipes to get full functionality from a turbo; every car i've installed a turbo on has ran a relatively mild exhaust system and that works just fine for low boost applications (3-9psi). one of those cars was an integra type r, and it's exhaust note was barely louder than stock. granted, the turbo itself made a fair amount of noise, but nothing you'd be able to hear two miles down the road.
and for the record, this isn't going to be a daily driver; that's what i have my senior citizen's car for. i only want it to be carb eo'd so i can drive it to and from the track and probably on the weekends too.
i see one of your hobbies on your myspace is "street racing". i sure hope that's supposed to be ironic.

There is a difference between finding street racing with vehicles such as motorcycles and what-not to be entertaining and wanting to do retarded shit to your car for no reason. I like watching people race cars and motorcycles, but that doesn't mean that I want do retarded shit to my car to make it sound like angry bees and look like a cereal box with fins.
