The good: - Cheap platform with tons of aftermarket - Easy to drive and great handling - Light weight and cheap maintenance costs - Good mileage - Decent trunk room for two even for weekend trip - Surprisingly capable all weather with hardtop - Highly reliable without any major problem areas - Teaches you to be a “momentum” person - No pressure in a race situation due to abundance of excuses (i.e. “my car has 1/3rd your hp, how am I supposed to win?”, “If you were in your hairdresser’s car you’d shift limp wristed like :gay too” etc etc) The bad: - Delete the word “overtake” from your vocab as it’s just not a reality in stock form - Going uphill sucks - Lifter tick on older cars tough to get rid of permanently, may be annoying to some - People say “oh, that’s your girl/wife/gay lover’s ride!? How cute!” - Constant need to measure your weenie when others question its existence (don’t do on cold day) - With a racing seat and rollbar getting out is akin to crawling out of a train wreck - Not for big boys - Optional hardtop is not cheap - You step out of the car and your boys look left and right before giving you a pound ---

I use to rock one and they are a blast to drive. Very nimble and johawk can vouge as they can be tossed around quite easily. I just felt like a tool driving it. ---
