Replying to: guss (Feb 13, 2008 5:25 am) I was looking at that. I like the RX-7, and now the RX-8, but premium fuel with piss poor MPG is a big drawback...   Bill Replies to this message: plekto (Feb 14, 2008 2:33 pm)

Replying to: gijoewildbill (Feb 13, 2008 5:16 pm) When you consider that it handles and drives a tiny bit worse(we're talking 5% or so) than a Porsche Cayman, that price difference of $20K buys an awful lot of gas.

#384 of 562 Whadda I think? by stickguy Feb 24, 2008 (2:50 pm)
I think I want one. The X3 sounds tasty, although I honestly think that I would rather go with the steptronic.   The 330 is probably a lot of fun though. Replies to this message: kyfdx (Feb 24, 2008 3:10 pm) oregonboy (Feb 24, 2008 4:04 pm)

Replying to: stickguy (Feb 24, 2008 2:50 pm) Yeah... I actually want a stick... The only sticking point with the X3, is that is the vehicle my wife would like to have next... and she doesn't drive a stick.. So, it might stick in her craw, every time she saw me in it..   I might be able to make this a little tougher on you.... Both of the vehicles are located closer to you, than me..

Replying to: kyfdx (Feb 24, 2008 3:10 pm) I've heard that the X3 has an really stiff ride with the Sport Suspension. I wouldn't be a bit disappointed by missing out on that.

OK, how close?   Not that I need one. Actully, might be able to get a real good buy on it, since an X3 stick must be a tough sell. I can see why, since I do think that anything "trucky" or trying to be an SUV makes more sense with an AT. It would also serve duty as the family primary transport, so more of the family could deal with it, and it would spend more time in situations where the manual wouldn't be of much use.   I'm getting lazy in my old age I guess!

Replying to: kyfdx (Feb 24, 2008 10:55 am) The ZHP is the obvious winner.
#389 of 562 Re: Ky [stickguy] by kyfdx HOST Feb 25, 2008 (8:14 pm)
Replying to: stickguy (Feb 24, 2008 7:44 pm) The X3 is in a Philly suburb, and the ZHP is in northern Maryland..   The only thing that worries me about the ZHP... possible boy racer type might own it.. plus, not wild about alcantara interior... it starts looking fuzzy and worn pretty quickly..   Big plus for the X3? I love that Terra Cotta leather!! Replies to this message: qbrozen (Feb 26, 2008 10:00 am) kyfdx (Feb 26, 2008 10:36 am) qbrozen (Feb 26, 2008 5:46 am)
