Hello all!
Took delivery of my Lightning Blue Clubman S on Saturday...
Used to have a Dodge Magnum AWD RT (the one w/ the hemi) and could not stomach putting $65/6 days of gas into that beast... Decided I had to get rid of it to save $ on gas, but still wanted the performance...
Began w/ the followng requirements:
1) <$30k price;
2) > 30 mpg economy;
3) <7.5s 0-60;
4) Useable rear seat;
This narrowed down the field to a few (among others Civic Si, Scion Tc, Subaru WRX) but the only one w/ style was the Clubman!
300 miles later and.... WOW!!!
Looking forward to meeting and learning from all of you here!...
