It’s called cognitive dissonance.
It’s also called irregular verbs. Of which “to say” happens to be.

Wasnt there a nicely modded silver wrx for sale on here or ubrf not too long ago?
Sounds like a WRX would probalby suit your needs fairly well in all catagories. (awd, price, modability, performance)

he didn’t have a problem affording the jag, he ran out of miles. his jag lease was 200/mo, i’m sure his new gti is a bit more than that.

the viggen is still there, they just did a whole run through on it, i drool every time i pass it. if i had $15k it would be in my driveway already. its only had one owner, and hasnt been owned since 03, its been bouncing dealer to dealer since then, and its only got around 50k miles IIRC…and it blue books at nearly $18k

A tin can that you can drive off road? 😉
You really cant go wrong with a wrx, its a decently fast car that is awesome in the winter.

I checked it out. Not something I’m really into. FWD, 4 door Viggen 😕 and the red make for a combo I am not feelin. Cool, just not into it.

If you have to drive it in the winter…WRX FTW! They are sweet cars, I used to work at Northtown Mazda and I got to drive quite a few WRX’s and they kick ass.

i saw a red 2 door viggen not too long ago. soooo hot.
drive in winter? RWD out.
no FWD? FWD out.
well don, sounds like your only option is a WRX…nothing wrong with that 😉
although if you only plan on driving it for a year, why not set aside the money you would have spent on a WRX and just buy a cheap FWD? you’re going to need a winter car anyway if you drive an S2k. it would be sort of stupid to drop that kind of cash on something you only want for 10 months.
