Sorry, the article just got me worked up.

Ive had 2 or 3 different shitcan hondas try to race me already, but Im already used to those shenanigans since all the ricers in the world were attracted to my miata for whatever reason.

so when is someone going to sign onto their forum (making sure to hide all registration away from your friends in fear of being made fun of), and post this link on that thread?

The mpg thing really varies per car. I get 20-21 mpg in mixed, "enthusiastic" (lol) commuting, and 24 on highway roadtrips. Not exactly a Prius I know, but not all that different than cars it was compared against back in 2004. I think it's partly just that people read "1.3 liter" and obviously expect much better... |

No surprise coming from an SRT4 owner (sorry if I offend anyone lol). Don't get me wrong, I like having fun on the highway too... but my current POS is faster than the 86. If I saw one on the highway I'd follow it and admire the car, not race him and act like a douche about it on the forums.

I actually still want a RX-7(the last generation) one of these days when I can afford a weekend car. I think it has beautiful lines and been one of my favorite cars. But yeah I agree there are a lot of problems with it to make it a daily driver. So I will save that for when I am in my 50 or 60s and can afford a weekend car.

No 'race requests', but I have been tailgated A LOT plus today a guy in what looked like an imported skyline did a screeching takeoff (almost losing it) around a corner after he saw my FR-S.

Well when some people get jealous they tend to do those kind of things.
