Personally I don't give a hoot what they think....I drive a car I like that I find reliable...I don't do it to impress anyone.

clunkety? smoooth...
Our 300sd.
I've only had it a couple of weeks, the first day it stranded my wife with a clogged fuel line, since then it's been a smooth sailor. I had it up to 100 today, with my my hands off the wheel. A couple of years ago my wife and i had new cars, me a bland tundra (tax break), her a new passat. $50,000 worth of cars. Now we have a 79 300sd, a 69 baja bug, a 93 dodge cummins 4x4, all fantastic cars for less than $10,000. All that's missing is a great deal on a lotus 7? I like the current arrangement much better, regardless of cost.

When I finish building my house project. I think I'll put together a miata based "7" like in this movie.
Until last year i had a turbocharger miata track car that I rolled and totaled at a track day. Next year.. http://flyinmiata.com/video/index.php?no=12

I have a big hole in my exhaust and there is no air cleaner on right now. You mostly hear the turbo, which I will never complain about.
My girlfriend really likes my car because its yellow. I think she is just being nice.
