The FitSport looks nice and sharp, the wheel does look a bit small, but I think it is enough for its size, well, won't cost much to bump-up to the next size but I bet you can leave it til next season...

Mr.ZMan8, Glad you are back in one piece, Mexico is such a party place, all you can eat & drink in the hotel, clubs around the hotel area..

Regarding Mr.kenchan decision, I can confidently say I know the story almost as good as ken-San... LOL

Mr.kenchan... I believe you with my statement, right?

And the story between Mr.kenchan and the new FitSport, I'll say the process is the Auto-Version of Romeo & Juliet

ken-San, ?????

on spending $$ on the Z
mr.alcheng- lol yah, i completely agree you were with me the entire process finding my winter beater. @ auto-version of romeo & juliet. hahahaha!

yah, the wheels are 16's and the car can easily fit 17's. i will drive on these until late fall and decide if i want to use the stockers for snows or get snow set with cheap wheels.

Mr.kenchan

Do you think the new all-season can survive the first Winter?? If so, I will say use the all-season for the first Winter and get a set of 17-summer next year... then a set of 16-Winter on the OEM rims...

I will invest $$ on a set of 17-summer on the FitSport next Summer

Hi mr.alcheng- I will be getting snow tires on the car by winter, just not sure if I want to use the stockers or not.

Morning everyone!

the 08' i sold was MT and it wasn't terrible but i hated the pedal position. it was too close made for real short legged people. my new one they really fixed this area and it feels like a normal car. so i was immediately sold when i took a test drive on Friday.



thanks, mr.onzedge.
eounds good mr. Kenchan. I'm glad you finally got your winter DD

LOL... Mr.ZMan8... It's holiday, WTF you talking about the scale!!?? Let's talk about those Gals... ok??!!! LOL


BTW, do you find the Corona they serve in the hotel taste like water??

Most of the time I ask them put more alcohol in the cocktail, or ask them to just give me shots... but quad it in a glass...
