I guess the wreck had me on the fence. Now this brake issue is really getting at me. The car never really "sang" to me. Sure, I learned to drive a front heavy sports car, and acceleration is more than plenty, and it looks great, but 24mpg highway for this level of speed is fail, the thin paint has me worried about long term wear and looks, I guess its just one of those cars that you're like "if someone totalled my car today and i wasnt hurt, I'd not yell or be mad so long as I got my $." You know? It was always kindof "well...ok" and niw its in the shop more and more for brakes, and that has made a car I felt "ok I guess" about into a car I don't much enjoy. That and a gear box that grinds every now and then on cold days and is hard as hell to shift when I drive it for the first time after a rain (wtf...why?) I use mt-85 redline fluid in it, fwiw. I dunno, its just not a car I love, and its dicked up now, and id rather dump it than try to care sums it up best.
