I still can’t get my wife to apporve.  She wants a minicooper type “s”

I found some where on a stage 2 upgrade the hit 0-60 in 3.2 sec.

THats crazy.  Like to see a mini do that..

Thats a lot of power for such a tiny car.  Nice set of rubber on that thing too (225/40ZR18x7.5).  I have always admired handling much more than raw power.  I used to have a Honda Civic that handled like a Corvette.  :D

Where did you see this?

Erik

if you read page 1, http://motortrend.com/features/performance/112_0401_tuner/index.html , it states that it will go 0-60 in 3.2 sec

I want one :cry:

This was me after I test drove it. :drool:

I am going to change my wifes mind and get one.  For me that is.

:D

Just have to come up with a xtra $30K

hmmmmm

I might have to wait a couple of months :( to save up…

Forget porshe, forget bmw m3’s, forget honda s2000.

This car kicks a$$.

What I love most about it.  It has every upgrade I could think to do to the car.  Already done by the dealership.

:twisted:

Wow, that pretty incredible…especially for that price. Don’t forget Lotus had their car coming to the states this year priced around $30K as well, its not nearly as fast, but it is exotic.

Ok. I am going back to work…So I can make some money.  :shock:  coffee.  lots of coffee.

You prefer this over the Mini???  :shock: 
If I was going with something this small…which I can’t unfortunately…I would get the Mini and do my own mods…
I guess I just don’t trust anyone with my babies… 
BUT of course…nothing comes close to my soon to be SCION xB! 

Its amazing how much people put into simple transportation.  I know this contradicts my first post, but my life now contradicts what it was years ago.

I think its a little more than transportation.  :D It would be way more of a toy for me.  Shoot at that price Its almost not worth to be a daily driver and put it in the garage to save for a rainy day if you know what I mean

It would rain a lot if I had that car….

You’re right.  Thats my point. :wink:

I am still day dreaming about this car.  I can’t get it out of my mind.  It sucks though because I have to take clients around and I kind of need a four door car :(

What do I do…
