Be careful Wranglers are a slippery slope,

this very same bike for my daily commuting (picture taken by the previous owner). It's a 3 cylinder so I stay with the same kind of harmonics.

I've got to know - why don't more people DD their Porsches? Wasn't that the intention?
I have an executive job, but would rather not show up in a P-Car, especially at my age. As a frame of reference, our CEO makes $22M and drives a Jeep Cherokee, lives in a 3500 SF house, flashy is not his MO.

My DD: 2000 Toyota Celica. I keep trying to justify buying something new but the thing gets 38MPG's and keeps going at 180K miles. I had it resprayed 3 years ago so the fricken thing looks new!

I'm considering the Chevy Cruz or BMW 1 series, might as well use my lease allotment, although I prefer to pocket the money. On a side note, I've never owned anything besides a 2 door coupe.

I'd drive my turbo to work more, but I have an 18 mile commute that takes an hour. Most of it is bumper to bumper traffic light suck. Its a waste to take the turbo in. And the garage there kinda sucks.

335 with Vishnu Software and 6 speed ZF automatic. Solid 375 HP and 400 Tq and 4.7 0-60 and comfortable 2 door coupe that looks nice.

I'll trade it in 2 years for a twin turbo M3, so all my cars can be TT!
