I'm sorry you drive a Ford Festiva.CyroTek said:IMO it doesn´t realy matter wat car you drive, as long as it takes you from point A to point B, its a good car.
Lazyness I guess. It's "easier" to drive an automatic so they make automatics.CyroTek said:Ford Festiva? Don´t even know that car. Its a beamer i drive.
Eclipse? Sounds sweet. How often is there a state check?
Btw how comes most US cars(From wat i heard) have automatic? Manual is so much more fun..
That's quite a lot of stuff. I would hold out on all of that (except for the spark plugs, mirrors, oil/coolant) until you get a better car...a faster car. You have to mix style with performance. Don't do like a lot of people around here (where I live) do which is make a car look "pimped" but only has about 100hp etc... I love racing those guys in my "everyday" Honda.Walmart Security said:yeah, i got my car fixed last night. It took me 4 long hours, but i got it done. Anywho, I have plans for it now.
I want to buy a...
Spoiler
Carbon Fiber Hood
Side Skirts
New Chrome Rims (not sure what size)
Need to get my oil pan abraized, it has a crack in it.
Rear skirt
Front skirt w/scoop
new right side view mirror
New Spark plugs
Need new oil and coolant
and maybe a Super Charger
after all of that, I want to paint it a darker, metallic/glossy red.

State inspections are, I believe, uniformly on a yearly basis.CyroTek said:Ford Festiva? Don´t even know that car. Its a beamer i drive.

Ford Festiva had an inline 3 for a whopping 70 BHP at the crank.
As has already been stated, people like Automatics because they:
a) like the free hand for their cellphones
b) cry at the thought of driving a stick
c) relish the opportunity to give up yet another decision to something that isn't them
d) don't care if it's more difficult to repair and more prone to breakdown while giving overwhelmingly poorer performance.
