Automatics also have appaling fuel consumption.

HEY! Its a damn good reason. I dont want to learn any of the junk about the clutch and gearing while driving. I mean it is cool and all, but I choose laziness over skill. :p I aint learning anything about manual driving, and thats that. :p :D

EDIT-@Sleep Who asked you? ;) Well I still dont care. I strive to achieve the utmost laziness and the persuit of doing as little as possible. :D

I think that's about as good a reason there is :p ** takes a drink from his beer in a toast to laziness ** But there is something to say about revving the engine and shifting gear too... :D - greetings, Rob-hin, Sleep, what can we get you?

Totally right Rob.
Tyb dont tell me you have never raced in streets before?
You have never tried to do the stupid and dangerous things with your car?
What are you nuts?
Cars are made for speed racing on busy one way roads and to mess up completely.
Nothing is better than getting on the highway pushing the car in 3rd gear to 100 and the switching automaticaly in to 5th and feeling the car just zoom and then relax....robhin has it all correct.

You, by posting in a thread you are also asking someone to answer you, by extension that happened to be me :p ;)

There is no better feeling than revving the guts out of an engine dropping the clutch and wheel spinning away! :D

I abide by the rules of the road-well.....most of the time anyway! :p ;) :D
So I have never done anything dangerous with my car. I think I almost ran a yellow light once, though. :p ;) :D

@Rob-hin: I've seen you post it before, and it is indeed a great car :cool: . @Sleep: regarding the appaling fuel consumption. Of course, I did use to drive a BMW (which counts for a lot of it as well) but I noticed the low consumption of the new car, compared to the automatic, over the weekend :) ** takes another swig of beer ** @Ty and Fas: I'm partial to BMW's too and the BMW Z3 is indeed a beauty

The Z3 is a beauty, there is something very classic about it's lines, it is my ideal car :)

Also the MR2 is very nice...it's a tough choice

So there we have it

Ok guys i am planning a heist to take out some of those Z3s anybody want to help? But honest on fuel consuption i think the Japanese cars are the best. Though extremely fragile and weak they really earn their gas money.

** walks down to the lab, retrieves a few mixtures and some stealth equipment and returns ** Can't say I have any experience with Japanese cars, Fas; I guess we'll have to take your word for it ;) - where were you planning to get those Z3's? @Ty: nothing illegal per se. Policies indicate taking them for a test drive is perfectly legit :D .
