Message	hands down, the most fun car to drive. winter safe (front fag drive) fairly lightweight. tons of aftermarket parts. an absolute whip on an autocross -OR- roadcourse (get the supercharged model) all this fun for roughly 20k. PS, even though it seems smaller then the Z inside, it's like some kinda wierd vortex, cause it's a cargo van inside.
