    I have to say that within days of trading in my midlife crisis Ford GT on what I did indeed consider a more girly car, I started to appreciate what a smaller car could do, and the local drive through the hills took on a whole new meaning. I also suddenly noticed people pushing me around in the traffic, tailgaiting and cutting me off, something largely absent in the big ar$e Ford. It has been an interesting experience.

    I do look at the dudes in their HSV /GT's now and think "been there done that, moved on - thank god!"

    Those cars are big fun, but so unrefined!

    I asked a girl out once when I had my RenaultSport Clio. She turned me down because my car was too small...... haha.

    I definitely didn't get rid of the car....

    When I got to work today - one of the admin people saw my GTI, and said "why did you get a coffin on wheels?". Wasn't really worthwhile bringing up the whole star rating system and why her Falcon wouldn't necessary save her life... somehow I don't think it would have sunk in!!

    that's why my dream stable would include a convertible bmw 3 series of some sort - cheapest current one available, of course, because i'd prefer to drive something else in the twisties.

    black BMW - that's all the dumb b7tches would need to see in order to start thinking about letting you pork them.
