How many cars do you have now?
-
I got a truck (for sale), a CRV and a Miata. We traded in the wife's IS300 towards the Mini.

Hopefully it doesn't have the pile of fuck Midland trans.
Dunno if/when they stopped using them.
-
The IS had >100k miles and it was time for something different. I don't look forward to doing ANY work under the hood of that beast.

what a fucking terrible trade. wow ur gay

Man, have you looked under the hood of that mini? IS300 are fucking gravy work. Never mind that yours was just getting broken in. Not being an ass, but I dont hold those two vehicles to the same standard. Thats just my opinion though.
At least you got a warranty with the mini, somebody else will have the headache for a while. Cant blame you for that. The wife's Jetta hasnt broken anything, but warranty is piece of mind.

those mini's are really nice and fun to drive. My friend had a supercharged one and it was pretty quick.
-
Its amazing how much that engine sounds like a diesel. BMW garbage...

no they are not.

no they are not.
yeah it's no 20 year old civic with rust and a 50 trim..... ::)
But for being as heavy as it is. it wasn't bad at all. You going to tell me that there not fun to drive ripping up and down winding lake roads. Thats all we did in the thing.
-
Fuck a mini, IS300 is so much better and way easier to work on. If you think IS300 are hard to work on you obviously haven't touched anything besides honda's, which are fucking lego's by the way.

use all the excuses you want, i've daily driven a supercharged one for over a month, and my stock turbo s beetle was far more enjoyable.

Hotrex told me, even though he inserts penises into his orifices on a daily basis for free, that he is definitely far from gay
-
I think they look nice and wouldn't mind driving one. The only thing that bothers me is the cluster in the center of the dash. It would take a month or so to get used to that.

Fucking interior kills it for me. I think they look ok too but couldnt get past the dash.

I had a 2002 Launch edition mini...
It ate transmissions like tic tacs...
Hope the dealer is close by!
-
Thanks for all the kind words you fucking douchebags.
Wife likes the car, only drives about 4k/yr. I think it's cute. :P

Make teh CRV do this

no mercy, but honestly I agree with them. I'd take an IS300 with high miles over a mini any day, but since it's for a chick that works because most would rather look cute than have luxury and speed.

what's that, get lowered onto the beach via helicopter?

Well we've had the IS300 for like 3 years now, time for something different.

hahaha Ive put like a total of around 100 miles on that thing in sand, does pretty damn good for being an over grown accord. that is in Corolla, North Carolina, there is a little neighbor hood called Cordova that you can only get to with a 4x4. Its like 10 or 15 miles up teh beach, wild horses n shit running around.
