Lets think about this for a minute, Sure you can buy a 5 grand bigger muscle car, or you can spend 5 grand on a used rice burner, fix up both, and you can get the same thing...speed...I wonder if your using either car for a daily driver who's going to be filling up for gas first...
I guess it's just a matter of preference. The question for myself is: do I want to drive a muscle car or a sleek redesigned toaster?
The thing about it being a daily driver is true. I try not to worry about it even though while most people think about miles per gallon I think in terms of gallons per mile.
But I like to drive it. While most people hate getting behind the wheel, driving is actually an enjoyable experience for me.
If some other guy likes driving a supped up microwave, then more power to him.
His backwards visor wearing skinny ass just better not cut me off or I'll smash through his rice burner with the god damn steel framed tank I drive.
