To paint it properly would cost more than what the car is worth. I'm too OCD to just paint the exterior and jambs, have to paint ALL of it. Otherwise every time I open the hood I'll twitch and fall over.

Been stuck in RI for the past day or so. Saab left me stranded, and the last part I need to fix it is special dealer order. FML.
Needless to say, I have $3200 to spend on a new car. Must be a 6GC, no black, not tan interior (unless you want to see me plasti-dip your baby pink haha). |

Hopefully can bring them up to the minimum I was wanting to sell it for. This post has been edited by Box: Oct 3, 2013 - 2:02 PM -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I thought about how much gas my weak 135hp 5sfe consumes. I average about 20/26. Which is terrible for a 4 cyl car. Its eating as much gas as a 6cyl would. Now that I think about it. My car is a gas hog for no reason! Lol.

I get 25/30 w/ an average of 27mpg in my GT. But I kick it in the city a lot cause of the way lights are set up...and slow people. And then on the interstate...yea 80mph isn't too gas efficient with the S54. Ohhh and I have 100lb anchor in the trunk. But its okay

When I did my last big cruise, I got the car down to 8.8L/100km (26.7mpg) According to the Toyota Stats I found (Since lost the Link) The 5SFE drinks 10L/100km (23.5mpg) in urban driving and 7.0L/100km (33.6mpg) Highway. Now obviously after 18years, the car would be less efficient

22/29 was the original rating for the 5-speed GT. ST 5-speed was rated at 28/34, and I average 35-36 out of mine consistently with 190K miles on the original drive-train. Then again I know how to drive efficiently and sensibly, and the car hardly sees over 3,000 RPM.
That's right, even with my V8 powered thingymajigger I'll drive it like an old man and make it into a game as to how little fuel I can use.
