Just took this, because I couldn't find anything. Excuse the salt, it hasn't been washed in months.

Some insane number of candlepower on those LEDs. Really lights up the trail to hunting camp.

I'm in between on a wrx/sti or something with TORQUE like this vw :dunno: so torn.

Just depends on what you want. The 2004 we have is known for being sortof the worst of the TDI's in that it doesn't get the insane mileage of the <'03's nor does it have the power of the CR '09+ cars. Even so, we have a lifetime average of around 40 MPG. The thing is SLOW though. Seriously slow. But almost never have to downshift on hills either because torque. Road trip monster, just under 600 miles per 13 gallon tank.

I'll buy another, but only because it's my wife's daily. It's just a little too slow and boring to be my daily. Love the bit of clatter though.

New 2015 WRX FTW if you can afford it though. One of my favorite cars I've ever driven as long as it doesn't have the terrible short shifter on it.

My DD is a 2000 Ford Focus that I've owned since 2006. Its treated me pretty well over the years, currently has 216k miles on it and still on the original clutch.

When I first brought it home
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1426999236

Lowered a little with an SVT front end swap and some Team Dynamics wheels.

https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1426999236

Went through a very short-lived slammed/swag phase and couldn't stand it. It looked good parked but thats about it.
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1426999236
https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1426999236

Once I got the MSM I sold most of the parts off the Focus and now it looks like this.

I drive my miata when I'm on my own, and this is our family car. Hauls ass from 0-10, and the over inflated Eco tires make it feel like a stiff sports car :party:

Retarded reliable. Cold a/c. Give zero fucks about dents/dings. 28+mpg because I drive like an adult.

That is discipline. When I had my Xterra, I was lucky to get 23mpg.

I picked this up last month for 2k flat.

117k and needs clutch pretty soon. Drives great, though.

This is my DD. When I have to haul something I'll take my 07' 2500HD Sierra Duramax or the wife's Ridgeline

Such a clean NC, very nice

That yacht is actually a DD as well, but it belongs to my roommate. Its a '76 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham D'Elegance. He's lucky we live 3 miles from where he works. :giggle:
