    Of course I care. lol I wouldn't roll in a Ford Pinto. What I meant was I don't care that it's a Hyundai. Regardless of what the peanut gallery has to say, newer Hyundais are generally all-around well-built cars. I've already put over 40k miles on my Tib, and the only thing I've had to take it back to the dealer for was a bad sensor in the passenger-side seat belt buckle... whereas my parents' brand new GM cars have them back at the dealership a lot more often.

    I like the body lines of the GK Tiburon... that's why I bought it. Plus the V6, coupled with the mods i've made, is music to my ears (which is more than i can say for most civics and 240s -- Granted, I have heard a few sexy 240s and civics).

    So when I say I "don't care", it's not that I don't care what I drive.... it's that I don't care what the haters have to say about it. The thing about my car is that it's not like every other cookie-cutter 240sx, Civic, Mustang, etc. (i have nothing against those cars. ... well, i have nothing against 240's )

    Miata, 240sx, SC300, Corolla, RX7 <--Cheap RWD cars. Miata's are owned by peoples sisters (no offense droptop) , SC300s run the over 6k category, corollas are rare as shit. And RX7s are rotary, which just the thought of no pistons makes me tremble lol. 240s are what middle aged women and men drive because it was a cheap sports car in the early '90s. They are quite abundant in suburban areas because of this, and a couple years ago you could pick em up for $1500 in mint condition and swap an SR for another $1200.

    Yah who in their right mind would want rwd when you can pull your way thorugh a corner with vtek? I don't get it... I mean you get 40k miles on a 240 and it just breaks down and never runs again. so pointless...

    Do you enjoy making yourself look like a dumb ass? You watch Drift Bible? Why does your drifting suck? What's the matter don't hit the "touge" up enough bitch?

    And for Miatas, they are owned by peoples sisters? Interesting...last time I went to a SCCA event or something I saw a lot of men driving them, very quickly...

    Supply and demand. As sick as it is, people are actually paying that much for 240's. That's why people have them priced that high. If there's 10 people that will buy your dime for a dollar, you're not going to sell it for less than a dollar just because it's only 10 cents.

    That's big talk for such a little guy.. Why are you hating on this guy? I'm sure you must be awesome at drifting to be making fun of this guy like that.
