    Default modded DD

    so i just got a new job about an hour and 30min away

    im looking for a new ride, something i can drive everyday and not really have a doubt in my mind

    but at the same time still do the little mods I/H/E and prob a lower stance and rims

    all i can think of is a honda,

    maybe the day will finally come that i own a honda

    depends on how much u want to spend. a miata are fun litttle cars. RWD, can boost them and still keep it reliable. Drop the top if u want also.

    Well look at the gas prices also man, but honda's are reliable little cars.

    Miatas are always good daily drivers if you don't want a FWD car

    Well, if it helps, I'm 5' 11 and 185lbs and I have a ton of head room. I've never owned an automatic car so I'm not going to say anything about that. lol

    Probably not that great, it's a 2JZ NA though. But they are reliable, can easily take over 300k with basic upkeep.

    im 5'10ish at 300 lbs its kinda tight, but manageable and the first gens have more room from what i was told and also the door panels are different between the 1st and 2nd gen. also you can do a foamoctamy were you remove foam padding from the seat to gain more room. people that are 6'3 have done this and dont have problems
