Went in to the dealer to get a used one (had already test driven a new one last month), but did back to back test drives and the difference in interior quality & style in addition to the difference in handling was something I just couldn't overlook. The new one looks better (arguably, I'm sure), comes with a warranty, handles better, has more power, and has way more usable space inside.

Moonroof is getting installed at the dealer next week!

Things to come over the coming years include:

• Wheels
• Tires (something aggressive.. going for a look like my dream sport utility coupe)
• Rear vista window mebbe?
• Black roof racks
• Black-painted roof (finishing this look on the top)
• Something to dim down the chrome on the grille
• Custom upholstery once the original seats get worn

dang, to bad you don't live in WA.. my dad could get you a good deal on leather (his day job)

man I so wish toyota would have went throught with that concept.. that thing looks sick!


anyway nice! what mpg does it get?

MPG is TBD. I'll start checking it on the 2nd tank.

gets like 15ish for city, and about 21-24 i think for highway.(I have the 00' version)

Was doing an indicated 27 hwy today.

Excuse my confusion; I thought you bought a Porche!

Practical? Maybe.

Ugly? Yup!

Your confusion is excused but expected. Yes I did buy a Porsche. How many times do we have to go through this.

not a great name either

I never really liked them, but I'd never seen one in silver. All the ones around here are that bright orange that comes on the 350Zs and look terrible.
He bought a Porshe for his "fun" car, and this is his "practical" car. Correct me if I'm wrong?
