    I have owned a '92 Ranger, a '94 Wrangler and this stupid stupid Focus that I can't wait to get rid of but will probably keep until it dies

    family traditions compel me to buy a Big Three car but I will probably end up with a VW this time around

    So when I was car shopping the other day, this sketchy dude at the sketchy Honda dealership (which I went to after I test-drove my Camry. . . and after which I immediately went back across the street to buy the Camry) had me sit in a Civic, and when I sat inside of it, it smelled like rotten air freshener and pickles

    Pickles

    I have an 01 GSR Integra with intake and exhaust. I have a K20A3 engine to swap into it once I have a build plan. I am DYING to get a Rotrex supercharger but don't want to lose A/C. Only planning on putting 8lbs of boost through the thing or so, but I'd like to have 300hp.

    i drive a toyota echo and i wish it had power but it is a fun car to drive as long as you dont require great bursts of speed

    although the centre of gravity is a bit high and maybe some strut bars and new springs would help stop it leaning when you throw it into tight turns
    but i aint buyin that shit it is expensive and the car is good times as it is
    lightest damn steering

    When I was getting my pathfinder I had a choice between '07 LE with beige leather or '08 with regular fabric and I went with the '08 primarily for that reason.

    Unfortunately I also gave up ass-warming seats.

    Leather cleans up a lot better than upholstery too.
