Traded power for sun power
I traded in my 04 Subari STi. I still scratch my head on this one. But I'm lov'n the MINI (MCSC) when it's a sunny day and the top is down. Heated seats and driving gloves extends the top down weason alot longer than you think.

A little G-man automotive history.
-1967 Plymouth Barracuda - slant 6 w/4bbl, headers, bigger cam, yadda, yadda, yadda, and plenty of rust.
-1966 Mercury Comet (Cyclone clone) - very handsome car, but full of electrical gremlins
-1971 Dodge Challenger - I'd give details, but my tears might short out my keyboard. God I miss that car.
-1969 Pontiac Grand Prix (owned w/Challenger) - 6.6 liters, 350bhp, 15mpg.
-1969 Plymouth Fury III (owned w/Challenger) - bought for $300, sold for $300. What a deal.
-1991 Eagle Talon - Bright red, but should have been yellow. A first rate lemon!
-1993 Nissan Sentra - Very reliable, but YAWN!
-1996 Acura Integra LS - good enough to want another one
-1996 Acura Integra GS-R - Great car! It took a MCS for me not to miss it.
-2001 Honda CR-V - The wife's. It shares the garage w/ the MCS.
