Hi ya gutbomb .....

Yep, you're correct. Signing the end of a post is a carryover from another forum (miata.net), where I had posted over 25,000 times, signing off on every post. Yep, old habits are hard to break.

In addition, in the Army, a "brainwashing" experience, one was taught to end a radio transmission with an acknowledgement ..... like "over" or "out". Why? Because, for example, if you were a commander and you were calling for artillery fire and didn't "end" a transmission, you didn't want some FDC (Fire Direction Center) dude to end it for you, by bring FPFs (Final Protective Fires) down on your position......

I tried for a while to break those old habits/training ...... but, I relapsed .....

So ...... humfrz, "over" .......

I agree totally with the progression posts above.

A few question you have to think hard about are,

what is the most important aspect of driving to you?
What do you enjoy the most when driving a car?
Do you plan to modify after purchase?

These will guide your decision greatly.

For me it came down to feel during the test drives. I thought i wanted the extra power but i couldn't take my mind off how much this car reminded me of how much i loved driving my Rx7.
