I never hated them. I actually loved them. But for some reason I had to have a high hp car and that was the stang. Now I want to save money and everyone says how fun they are, even tho they are so slow. Ill probably end up turboing it and out 350 to the wheels after a couple years or sooner.
I'm a huge fan of it for what it is. Small, light 2+2 (if we want to consider the +2 as big enough for humans) that handles great once you ditch the Prius tires and gets great gas mileage. If I owned one, I'd swap the tires and wheels, replace the sways and springs, stick with bolt-ons and a tune and enjoy my 30mpg/200whp. Sideways.

I was really pushing my GF to get one of these so I could buy it from her when she outgrew it in a few years. I'd handle all the maintenance and mod it on the sly while she had it, so I'd pick up the perfect little fun DD for $15k or so, which is the most a 200hp car is worth to me.
