Thoughts/review on car?

Why did you buy this over "insert other car you were interested"

Did you try selling the IS privately and got nothing but wanna be ricers hitting you up?

Love the car. A little more power would be nice, but it's still far more fun to drive than the IS. Rather than trying decide how to soon to brake for a corner, you complain about the people in the making you have to brake at all. LOL.

Didn't try to sell the IS privately, wasn't really looking at anything else. Just decided I wanted an actual new car. The IS I traded in was coming up on 100k miles, and the project IS is over 200k. Decided I would prefer having a new car to depend on. Had 21 miles on the odometer when I took it for a test drive.

You'll have to get in line for that. That said, JLee still had a grin on his face when driving it.

And for the record both the auto and manual are 6 speed.

i love this way of problem solving.

the catalytic converter had just failed and been replaced and my engine was burning a lot of oil on my last car (and it was just barely in teh warranty period still) so i solved it the same way.

nice car by the way. i have a few friends who have it or the fr-s and love it.

You did this without even texting me or sending a pic on the day of? Sigh.

I got it Friday night, by the time I got home it was 11p. That's later then I'll usually text people unless they were expecting it. I was going to take more pictures Saturday night, but it decided to rain instead.

I believe the phrase was something like "instead of kill you, skin you alive."

Actually, total, I'm not sure that's the case. And that was a POS car nobody cared about.
