That thing is awesome. Wish my driving wasn't mostly highway where this would get me killed.
White interior tho? Ur a brave man sleevey.
Alright I need used car recommendations.
Small 2-4 seat convertible available with manual transmission. Possibly consider the right coupe/sedan/hatch. I have a good BMW mechanic we go to already so that's covered.
<$30K
Decent P/W ratio (more is better, just don't want a dog)
> 2000MY and maintainable (so no classic or weird shit with no parts)
reliable enough to take small regional road trips
GT(ish), at least comfortable
enough trunk to fit say 2 small suitcases
So far I think I've crossed off the following:
modern muscle cars (too big)
Miata ND/Fiat 124 (passenger foot well hump thing was annoying)
Focus ST (friend had one, ambivalent at this point)
Audi TT
WRX (had some, moved on)
Boxster 986 (neighbor has one)
S2000 (might have been cool if they had continued to be produced)
MR2
RX8 (had one, fuck apex seals)
Possibles:
BMW 1 or 2 series convertibles (M2s being closeish price wise is dangerous...)
BMW Z4 3.0si or M
Audi A3/4 (unfortunately doesn't look like S3 ever came with manual?)
Mini Cooper S or JCW
???
Any recommendations?
Go fuck yourself

If you're going to recommend those two turds, at least have the decency to recommend an awesome Chrysler product:

What's the finally part, not like a hard car to find?
Just saw one today. Wonder how many people say fuck the law and remove those front bumpers.If you're going to recommend those two turds, at least have the decency to recommend an awesome Chrysler product:
Ok, fine, almost awesome - it was only automatic and wasn't all there in the horsepower department. It would have been perfect if they went forward with the Howler concept. It definitely checks the unique box, doubt you'll run into another one in a parking lot often.
I drove behind some of those Slingshots, there's some random tourist rental company nearby that rents them. Also, why the fuck would you spend 40k on a car that isn't a car? I don't get it. If it was like the price of a motorcycle but faster than whatever maybe? IDK.

I think it's a pretty common modification, definitely gives it a cleaner look. Would definitely depend on my local police's disposition though.Just saw one today. Wonder how many people say fuck the law and remove those front bumpers.
GoofOff or something will take care of that. They are 99% just stick-ons.I think it's a pretty common modification, definitely gives it a cleaner look. Would definitely depend on my local police's disposition though.
Here's a pretty good example, the only thing they fucked up was adding those fake engine vents to the fender that were popular for a while for some reason.
