You’re going back to being comfortable. I thought you were trying to get something with some character.

You and I have very different ideas of a decent price

It's comfortable with some character especially once you throw some exhaust on it.

He does, which is why a NA/Auto Legacy is a not a good choice...Might as well keep the Miata.

Went and test drove it back on my birthday and as much as I liked it, both my wife and I felt like there was something wrong with the transmission. It felt like a rubber band in 1st and 2nd gear, and then would flare and shift hard into 3rd. Seller wasn't willing to come down on price so we passed.

http://showroom.auction123.com/autonati ... gslist|356 this fits mostly well, would be a fun car in HS at Auto-X, has 5 seats, I could fit the car seat in it. It's not a true sports sedan but Mazdas are fun to drive.

all I have are the two pics I took after I put the stock wheels back on and washed it from this morning.

And I'm still not sure what is next. BRZ/FRS and Mazda3 are both near the top of the list.

I would approve a BRZ/FRS. Those seem sporty and still a decent price tag.

I just think with those options your always gonna be looking for a turbo kit because you want/need more power. I still don’t understand the vette not being up there.
