oh i also had a mazdaspeed dual canister exhaust. Car sounded exotic! a definite must.

That's a bit intimidating, but then again you guys have much worse winters than we do. I'll look into the dual canister exhaust, but like I said, I'm basically broke now

. It'll have to wait a while.

Oh, and thanks to everyone else!

Oh the irony! A car that's MORE polluting than the usual car with worse gas mileage to boot...

Congrats - ping Gobbles - he had an RX-8 for a while and could probably give you some pointers.

I think Sutler's parents grounded him and took away his car.

I wish they'd take away his computer.

I make SOME exceptions

. I figured that the amount I drive (on avg. 6-8km a day) it wasn't a huge difference compared to a more fuel efficient car. I'll drop Gobbles a line, thanks for letting me know.
