You'd be surprised how fast leather captain's seats and an automatic transmission can grow on you. Plus it can tow a broken mitsu!! suv <3333

And not having to slow down for speedbumps. Ever.

I've been driving my mom's Hyundai with heated seats, auto trans, and all the other nice things that go along with it. I hate it. I cannot stand driving the thing. It does nothing but make me want to go to sleep. Hell, it almost makes me hate driving anywhere.

You're right, I am talking about modding the car, to the same extent that I have modded all of my other beater's. None of them have ever gone past the point of suspension and wheels, and I've been perfectly happy driving them every day. I don't care how fast it is, or how great it looks, or what other people really think about it. I just want something that I don't dread getting into every morning for the 30 minute drive to work.

We can go from a roll or a stop. I can chirp all 4 33's from a dig and from a roll it's even nastier.
