    Good point.

    Just remember. If you redline this one once a day, it'll blow up.

    Ive never understood comments like these. I see tons of daily drivers that people have and they are total junkers. Old beater civics, etc, on the verge of falling apart if you look at it wrong. A dude picks up a nice fairly new car, and yet its "gay", "stupid, " shoulda bought..." "gross".


    I say congrats on getting a nice looking car and not doing what most do and buy a POS Honda about to fall apart and calling it JDM.


    Not trying to be a dickhead to anyone, just stating the obvious.

    No no no.. I'm not knocking it, I'm just saying it's not what I like.

    I know my only car is a clunky little Honda, and I like it. That's all that matters.

    I'm in the car business, and I just don't like driving Cavaliers/Cobalts when I have to drive them somewhere. Though I am saying it's nice having something reliable for a DD, I just don't like them that much.

    I know, I was just saying I guess I'm in that population that does. Only I'm not JAY DEE EM, and I know my car isn't fast.

    But enough of us cluttering up his thread, I hope it works out for the best with him.

    Nice choice for a DD! That is about as practical and convenient as you can get. Just don't get sucked into modding the Cobalt as well...lol. I know if I had a DD, I would probably start modding that and the project car.
