I think my parents are going to fix my car over the winter and keep it for themselves since they love to drive it.

After having the iPhone for a week now. I don't think I will ever get another phone. When I plug my phone into my computer, it recognizes it as an iPad

Accord, Altima, Genesis.... those are really the only 3 options for 2-doors in that price range.


...... then there's the Kia Forte Koup.... you can get that for around $21k with leather + heated seats... but I don't see any mention of Nav being an option. Weird.

I don't even bother with winter mode, I just don't move the TSX when it's snowing. It's worked well enough so far. Winter doesn't do anything a good detailing in March can't fix. But if I had a CF hood/trunk I'd definitely take it off, so good call Jon.

My "give a fuck-ometer" honestly took a sharp nose-dive when I cracked a fog last week, I'm tired of dealing with modded vechiles, whatever I buy next gets tint and that's it. Totally over mods and living with a lowered boosted car. Get me one of those new 2.0T Sonatas and just call it a fuckin' day. Make everything that happens the dealer's problem.

can get CR-Z 23k fully loaded with Navi. The longer warranty of the Genesis is also attractive (minus heated seats) cause I don't think I want to get my wife a new car very often...

Wow Steve, I'm not that baller.

I just have the Logitech Driving Force GT... it's an up/down shifter only, no clutch.

But $99, a hell of a lot better than $500.

that's before shipping and out of stock. But hey, if you try hard enough I'm sure you can do it.

Clutch is going the way of the dinosaur as dual clutch trannies are faster, more fuel efficient and well...less work. Too bad they cost more.

Winters are on finally. Well worth the 300 if you ask me. I personally wouldn't be able to tell what kind of rims they are if I saw them on another car.

Uhhh Im talking about video games here, but you can use paddle shifters on the wheel too. Driving a stick is much more challenging and enjoyable than paddles anyway. Nothing like hitting a perfect heel toe out of the corner.

Android on a dual booting iPhone = best of both worlds.

Plus a Blackberry on the side.

I feel the same. I've sold most of the waiting mods I had in my dad's garage.

Just gonna leave the Accord as is until the next project falls into my lap.

Nismode, already have one Civic in the family and to load it up with a Navi and heated seats is gonna cost too much. Plus I don't like the way it looks in Coupe.

2011 Forte Koupe is gonna be my next target pending a test drive next year.
