ive realized that once i do something to the car i love it for a few weeks and then get bored and need to do something else or change it up. ive been through 4 sets of wheels and tires on it in the past year and a couple different sets of sideskirts and bumpers. now im focusing my attention to engine stuff because lets face it you can never get bored with going fast right?

Wrong. You will want to go faster. If you have money for all those wheels and tires, be sure you only do mods that will not need to be replaced when you get a big FAT turbo, because you will.

I genuinely prefer a manual for bumper to bumper traffic. Having to rein in an automatic that's always creeping on you is a terrible PITA when you are talking about very long periods of standstill traffic.







I used to get bored with my cars quickly, but now that I've sorta done everything major that I want to do, I don't mind leaving it as is and just racking up the miles. I'm always looking around and test driving cars, but TBH my X3 is worth more to me as a car than what I would receive from selling it, so here it stays

Wow really The Elantra clutch feels the same as stepping into a pile of dog ****, unless you have a stage 2 or 3 clutch.
