but you can't fit a pin in a 3-cylinder two-door hatchback.



Yea. I guess you need a 4 cylinder.  Where is that picture of the TZ stuffed in a Honda Civic?

I honestly don't find cars impressive at all, all I think when I see a middle age man in a Corvette is "Mid-Life Crisis man!"

There is an idiot here at work, bought a BMW worth more then my house!  (Granted the guy has the money to throw around but still) Anyway the thing is dinged up and scratched and crappy looking now and all I think whenever I see him is, What an Idiot! not what a sweet car he has.  


You know you don't have to spend a fortune to have a nice sports car. Plenty of inexpensive British and older Japanese roadsters around in the sub $7K level.  

Personally, I would love to get another sports car. I've owned 2 RX7s in the past and a nice Subaru (although not a true sports car as it was just the Outback Sport model, was still the nicest car I ever owned). Right now with a young family, it just doesn't make sense. Still there is nothing like driving down a windy country road in a perfectly tuned car. Someday I will get another sports car. Someday.

What's the point of having a car that's so fast when you will never get an oppertunity to use it what it was designed for, waste of money IMO.  But I'm sure there are the same people saying the same things about Pins, so to each their own.  


I was at mosport on the weekend with my z06

And I feel no need to impress anyone, so I have no use for status symbols either.


Me neither, I believe a person shouldnt give a mess what others think. If you're happy with your vehicle who the hell cares?

Maybe for some, I guess mine is a midlife crisis too being 22.


BTW Adam what BMW is the price of your home?

thanks Flashman,still have the other vette.the car was in for paint.a court order puts a hold on the shop.something to do with the company owner(s).it took a week of jumping through the court's f&^#ing hoops. in the end i got the vette back,unfinished and money lost.
  i found the red vette in a small town, in a backalley.the owner is sick of it and wants it gone.....so i got it for very... very cheap.bought a used door and by fluke it was red.now to the frame shop.

This was a few years ago now, I think about 3 or 4 so the car is about that old now.

Could be lying, I'd have no clue.
