^what Caln said, just without the expletives.

Scion xB.

I commute from just outside the perimeter to Kennesaw daily.

Plenty of nice places to live in Sandy Springs and Dunwoody. Highway 400 gets jammed up in all directions south of the perimeter highway.

Georgia $4,233

Thanks for the link, I just ordered a copy for cheap.

I know it's not unheard of, but it's not gotten much love this week, and is one of my favorites.

It's hard to know exactly why this accident happened. Looking at that dashcam video, the Ohio police car doesn't even appear to see the motorcycle at all — there's no attempt to swerve or slow down at all. Perhaps more alarmingly, the cop seems to check his car more than he checks on the downed motorcyclists.

These reviews rule!

If you go with wheels that require spacers, you will need to re-stud the fronts. I know 2Zero6 factory makes good rear hub spacers (mount them between the rear drums and axels) 10mm-15mm will bring the rears flush with the fronts) but measure and roll those fenders.

But the real star is not all the custom work, It's how simple and well built the whole car is. The 1znfe is easy for a shadetree mechanic to work on, and almost never needs work.

Don't let him escape!!!

I'm on the stock body kit with a cut up manual air ride system and 15x8 Enkei wheels. Anyone you see laying lower on larger wheels is likely wearing an aftermarket body kit.

We started bagging vehicles that would last over 100k miles. I ditched my lowered s10 in 09 since my cash for it was absorbed by repair costs alone. I bought a handsome Japanese made compact, and have not looked back.

That's exactly the point Spyderman. Nobody is willing to drop that kind of cash for a new car that size. Building and selling a smaller and cheaper car to compete with the strong used car market is doable, But nobody is selling one stateside.

Nobody.

Or go for two wheels. Motorcycles are far cheaper than cars. Though In my current hunt i'm amazed at what some folks are asking for used bikes.

At it's cheapest, the Echo (predecessor to the yaris) was $10k. But I swear I saw a Chevy Aveo hatch (or whatever that platform was called) going for $4k at a dealer less than 5 years ago.

Micro Cars. The production of small, cheap 2 seaters could drive down the cost of the initial purchase. A new Yaris starts at $14,430 . You can walk into any Toyota Dealer and Pick up a Scion iQ, equiped similarly to a new Yaris for $16,250. How is it that a smaller car costs more? Half the size, 2 grand more. our…
