Let's hope so!

You know, you gave your Versa a relatively good review while you had it. I wonder though: Is it zippy?

Ummm....

Ummm....

Ummm....

No.

Here I am. looks clean. I parked in the sea of white cars. Later, I went on to participate in the car exhaust sound-off which got me a surprisingly good amount of cheer from the crowd! 7500 rpm is all you need. Like my one and only decal? Also wore the t-shirt.

I want pics of the BRZ.

The BRZ was actually pretty comfortable to sit in (did I remember the sales guy saying something about Recaro? not sure.) - and would be very nice holding you in there while taking sharp turns.

The interior trim was just OK. They didn't use nice materials (mostly plastic) but had red stitching, etc. - and I thought it was neat the automatic shifter had a leather boot just like a manual. So you can think you're cool.

Boxster engine in the hood.
Here is the only picture I took of the BRZ:

Not a fan of those wheels but overall it's a good looking little car. If I had a bunch of cash laying around just for a BRZ right now I'd get one and put an LSX in it.

Exactally what I was gonna say. The wheels are puke! BUT the car has very nice styling.

Bleh!

Awwwww!

I was hoping that with its small stature that it might carry itself a little better. I bought the Z because it can net outta its own way if need be.

Although the Versa is most assuredly a babe magnet, it provides a decidedly uninspired driving experience. On a positive note, it carries a heck of a lot more groceries than any Z I have ever driven.

Not sure how I feel about the BRZ fender vent. Looks like something you'd buy at the local auto store. Wheels too.

For that price, I don't give a **** about who's interior is the fastest. Awesome, thanks EazyD!

Also, bolded part is rofl-worthy.

Panties

mr.gale.

aha, that is interesting about the college/university difference. where ive gone to, university is like a mall of colleges and schools all put together on a campus.

so we're all 'college kids' 'college students' regardless of community college or not. tech school/vocational school are 'students.' someone correct me if im wrong.

disclaimer: but that's just me.
