Fiat I've heard they are actually like driving a go kart(most of them are tiny from what I've seen.) So I could see how they might be fun and handle pretty well. My favorite manual I've owned had to be either my 2000 328i or my 92 Acura Legend(six speed with the NSX motor) Hard to choose. Dual mast flywheel fucked me over on the Legend and the wife totaled the BMW. Now I still have a stick but its a Deawoo.
Spot on. More power could be nice, but it was fun as heck, and the suspension was considerably better than I'd expected. It's handling when I terrified the salesman on the test drive totally sold the thing, AND I could get 40ish MPG [if I drove super slowly which I obviously hardly ever did!!]!
My favourite was probably my Y2k Toyota Mr2 Spyder, but the Miata was also fun. I have a big fat Acura Tl type S that has the NSX motor too! It's kind of dumb being front wheel drive and super heavy, but the wife likes to drive it. I like my Benzes these days because I guess I'm getting old or something.
Holy fart, a Daewoo though, really?! I have not seen a functional one of those in years! And speaking of cheap asian cars, I really liked my hyundai accent [we called the 'accident] - it got better than 40mph, had no power to speak of, but handled pretty well AND I could carry motorcycles in the back of it! With extreme difficulty, but I still did it!
Asian vehicles seem to just always have the suspension market cornered.
I have wanted an MR2 since I was I don't know 12 super cool cars and hold their value like crazy. The TLs are nice especially in the manual those shift like fucking butter. I remember driving an RSX type S six speed and you could literally shift through the gears barely using a finger.
Its badged as a chevy but its a Daewoo strangest thing about it I've found so far is the passenger side mirror is power but the driver is manual. It gets pretty decent mileage but keeping the tires balanced is a pain in the ass, not entirely sure why.
I'm trying to picture how you got a motorcycle in the back of a hyundai accent. I'm not seeing how this could possibly work.
It was the 1990 hatchback.
I can't believe I managed to pick up a 1976 Honda CB360 and stuff it in there, but I was really determined! The back seat was folded down, of course. That thing had almost station wagonesque space back there, but the bike's front wheel still stuck out a bit, but the car was so damned ugly that it was not visually obvious, and I just tied it down as tidy as possible with some crappy used dockline I carried around just in case of surprise bondage or motorcycle hauling or something...
I still haven't gotten that bike running and it's been years now. I should probably do that one of these days. But the boat needs an oil change and the house needs paint and I have to get drunk. All of these things are important!
