I'm relieved. I noticed that my online final exam was due a day earlier than I planned for, but the syllabus noted the exam being due the date that I had planned for. I emailed the teacher about it last night and received a response saying thanks for catching the error and that the due date has been corrected Back to studying!! I was thinking I'd have to take the test tonight I am not ready!!

I'm back to contemplating what to replace the Si with.
I'm thinking a MINI?
I'm not sure I'd go with a MINI, but have been contemplating the Fiat Abarth. Haven't actually driven one though, sooooooooo...

I'm really liking the Fiat Abarths! I haven't driven one either, but love the way they sound!

I'm saying there was a Fiat Abarth at my last track day that popped the bead on one of the tires. Took a chunk out of the lip and the poor girl had to sit out the entire day waiting for the tow truck

I'm a big fan of the Abarth, but when I look at the price tag and what you get, it makes less sense. Same thing about the Mini JCW.

I'm a fan and would recommend going to a dealer and talk numbers..... They negotiate a lot

I'm considering getting rid of the S, and especially if that's the case, I'd want a daily that's just as fun/practical as the Si...but no more expensive!

I'm assuming you mean about the Abarth?


I'm noting I priced one out and it was a bit cheaper than I recall them being ($25k msrp vs high 20s), but it doesn't make much sense to get a 500 Abarth when the FiST is similarly priced, but better and faster.

I'm thinking if you remove "reliable" from your requirements list, an Evo or STi would be a good choice.

I'm pretty sure you're right...whether it's new or used!
