But now, having the car as my daily driver for 10 months, it's getting annoying. Also, feeling the steering wheel hit my legs is annoying, especially when I'm turning the wheel.

It's not terrible. I can get comfortable in the car, but I guess after a while I'm beginning to think it wasn't the best choice. Combine this with the car being underpowered, and I'm starting to consider trading in the car.

I wonder if I went FI, would I be as bothered by the fact that the car is a bit too small for me? I don't know... I was thinking about trading this in for something like the Hyundai Genesis R spec.

If you guys were going to trade this car in, what would you get? Obviously nothing smaller than the FRS. Any suggestions?


Highly recommend an MG Midget.

Loads of legroom (really) and with the top down, unlimited headroom.
