    i have my preferences, Ive never liked bmw's even when i had no knowledge of cars, if id have 40k+ to spend on a vehicle bmw would be last car to pop up in my mind. id tihnk EVO nissan z series maybe a nice 4x4.

    Research to see how much a brake job cost on that 650 and compare it to ur lancer 09.

    they seem to try too hard and then fail, like using carboard in the trunk floor to save weight? or offering a user interface to toggle how much HP he wants .wtf i want all Hp all the time.

    my older lancer kept sliping out of 1st 3rd and 5th it was worts when it was cold , i had to always keep my hand on the shifter otherwise it kept falling back into the neutral position, i never got it fixed cause my warranty was done , i kept my mouth shut and traded it in towards my 08 lol

    yeah i traded a truck in on a eclipse back in the day lol. dealer called me up four days later saying the person he turned around and sold the truck to was pissed at him.turns out it over heated and died on the poor guy on the way home from the dealer. the dealer wanted to know if there were any tricks to the truck i simply replied "i never had any problems with the truck and that i felt sorry for the guy he sold it to". i kinda felt bad but not really cause i had my mitsu that i was wanting.

    If you dont have winter tires yet you NEED them. Theres no way to drive that car without 'em in the snow.

    Ohio winters aren't too terrible. Plus I've got the Yokohama's and they work fine. Apparently the Dunlops suck lol. Just gotta take corners slow :p

    Canadian Winters .... they can be bad sometimes... the problem with the Dunlops low profile tires on the GTS is that its pretty much like driving on plastic tires. I couldn't get my car to get ANY traction in even the tiniest bit of snow two winters ago. I finally caved in and spent $700 on winter tires because it was the only way for me to actually drive my car in the winter.
