Speaking of s2000s... Today I bought s2000 seats for my civic. They'll be much better than the crappy stock seats.

If I had that kind of free cash I'd just get a C5 Vette and call it a day. I have $6,000 in cash to work with, plus whatever I can get off the Miata. If I wasn't so anti-sedan, anti-automatic, and anti-FWD this would be easier.

I'd either get the "New Edge" or it'd be the '94-95 with the 5.0 in it. '96-98 is garbage unless it's a Cobra. Though really it's down to a preference of the New Edge looks and faster stock performance, or the 5.0's exhaust note and cheaper price. Yes, exhaust note is important.
There was a '95 listed semi-locally but no pictures, so I'll message at a more appropriate time for pics and info. Even though there are plenty of Mustangs out there, finding one that isn't red or yellow, modified, or a convertible makes things harder. That and I've never owned an OBDII vehicle, so that's just something I'm not overly excited over. If it's not going to cause the car to explode I don't want to know about it. I really just don't like car shopping though, it makes me nervous and anxious and then for the first month I don't trust the car.

You need a rat-rod where you can't see around the supercharger.

Sooooo after lots of thinking it's either a New Edge SN95 or another Miata, but a NA8 or NB this time around. Part of my thought process is that both need suspension work and replacement seats in order to be enjoyable anyway, but at least the Mustang doesn't need an $1,000 hardtop and immediate power upgrades. I hate liking all kinds of cars... Of course the obvious solution is LS Miata.

Filled up the civic today. Only $20 bucks to fill it up! It may be slow but damn it feels good to only spend $20 on gas.

That's what happens when you have a ten gallon tank and 100 hp.

Gas has been as low as $2.80 around here, which makes it about $35 for the Celica

Gas has dropped down to $2.65 here in Houston for regular 87 and about $3.15 for 93.
re-wrapped the bottom half of my back seat last night. my fingers hurt now but it was worth the pain and frustration. Imagine the before condition the same as the top half except not as torn up, but still dry and cracking.

I'm getting to it. Need to get my hands on a steam cleaner and hunting for the right mattress topper to add more cushion to the boostin.

I have to ask, why bother re-wrapping useless seats? The other question being how did seats that were never used get so torn up?
Also petrol is $2.65 for regular and $2.90 something for premium, I need fuel prices to shoot back up to make my gas guzzler cheaper to buy.
