It was the Charger or a Sonata as they were the only two cars on the lot early on Monday morning. They normally have a Mustang and a Camaro but both were out.

Should have taken a pic with the duct tape I had on there until I got it fixed.

Seems like you had already fixed it right and proper with the tape. Not sure why you spent the money on the paint.


That charger though..... The machine of a dream, such a clean machine...

The tape would have dried out in 6 months and I would have had to change it. Ain't nobody got time for that!

Not a pleasant dream I assure you. I must admit though that I now miss having 4 different methods of changing the play mode on the HU but 0 ways to turn off the nannies. All cars should have that.

Yeah I tried to slide one of those new chargers around with everything "off". They weren't anywhere near off. Pulling ABS fuse should kill them though.

I would be afraid that if I got one to start to kick out it would just keep right on going anyway. I would hope that the higher trim levels did something about that mattress like suspension. After my first terrifying attempt at an off ramp at speed I was to nervous to take them at more then about 30MPH.

Tcoat, you have officially proved you're a purebred Canadian.

Lol @ the fact this thread has a 1 star rating.

People really take it personally on this forum when a member decides they enjoy or want another vehicle over the FRS/BRZ


EDIT:

I said f*ck it and gave the thread 5 stars! Best thread ever in the history of the universe

I was actually quite touched by some of the responses but I hear ya on people that take it personally when others change.
In fairness it works both ways though since we do get a lot of guys that change and then just hang around and put down the car that the forum exists for.
I like to support those guys that change since that is exactly what I preach to anybody that does not enjoy their car.
There will certainly be a day when I really do change but for now I am still more than happy with the FRS.


PS BTW SXT 6 Chargers suck royal ass.

The 6 was quick enough I guess but the whole feel of the thing was just wrong. Even during heavy (as it could get) acceleration you simply felt like you were just floating up to speed.
Overall probably the most mind numbing car I have ever driven and I have drove some pretty sad cars.
