Winter / DD The WS6 only has 15,000 miles on it and yes the Jeep is faster.

I also LOVE the SSP transmission and in anything but a straight line this car with 300 AWHP (to the wheels on a Mustang dyno) will eat my 750hp Camaro alive. For a daily driver that ain't bad.

DC Sports cat back

Sweet car. I went to the mitsu dealer and walked out with a build sheet and invoice that read $57,400 cdn if I purchased a white one loaded to the teeth lol.

For me though, the rumble and simplicity and cost $8k vs $54k for a faster car stock and subjectively better to me looks wise (slammed with rims not stock), it was a no brainer !

Not knocking the evo I really love that car. Problem was thru are generations apart. It's a way better car overall it's just cost really affected the decision.

1998 GMC Sierra 1500 regular cab longbox 4x4 is my DD and winter ride. Only gets 15 mpg but I refuse to drive the T/A everyday or in the winter for that matter

that's pretty cool, but I would not be able to stand that. If I was in your shoes I would have to change that within a week.

don't get me wrong I love the jeep, but you don't think it would be kinda weird having a grocery getter that's faster than your sports car?

**LSCyaL8R** · 10-05-2010, 08:49 PM

1997 Saturn SC2 Arctic Silver 5 Speed. second owner. no accidents. 49k miles.

No ABS or traction control

kind of miss having a luxury car for a DD. especially given how harsh my hawk is.

Thinking about upgrading but i kinda want a house to be my next purchase. If Lincoln brings back the Mark coupe... i'd probably be all over it

That's what I usually tell people also.

Behold my daily driver: THE SNOW BIRD!

**LSCyaL8R** · 10-06-2010, 06:43 AM

Aetos.... i have no idea how you DD that. I can't imagine if my car had long tubes and dumps in addition to the solid mounts.... drone and vibration city! Although the solid mounts aren't as bad as i thought they would be so who knows.

It really doesn't bother me too much,although I am hoping to get some cheap 4 door beater/daily driver once I start working again. I can't see it being too great of a daily driver once I get some 4.30s in it with a cam along with what's currently in it..
