And try driving 5-7k miles a month like "some" people do and you'll see how much of a difference it can add up.

And to Eric, it's sad you had to let your baby go, but I completely understand given your situation. Whenever you want to drive or sit in an NSRT-4, give me a call and I'll swing by.

Eric is skittle-less?!?!

<----------This Eric. LOL

Josh the interior room is slightly bigger. I think they just made the seat be able to go back a tiny bit further. There is not as much room as the SRT but there is enough to be comfortable. One of my favorite things is the turning radius. No more 8 point turns LOL

For reals. I ALWAYS cringe when I'm about to make a u-turn.

I'll try to get some today. But, you can go to the Toyota website and build the exact one I have. Just add the D option, sport package, and choose the blue color. You can do a 360 view of the car on there.

^^^
Even checked the oil yet?
My Ann's FIT > your Civic
Actually, both good cars giving about the same 36-or-so MPG on 87 unleaded.
I really like the room and carrying capacity of the FIT, it handles like a skateboard and the paddle shifters are fun.
But I'm still happy with the SRT-4 which is currently getting around 30MPH on the same 87 octane.

My gas doesn't go faster than 30mph. It sucks!

Honestly I couldn't have afforded to keep it. I spend less than half on gas now. That's pretty dramatic considering how much I was spending. I spend roughly $50 a week when I was spending $120 a week before.

well, could have used that savings to pay for your car payment. just added, what, 300/month for the corolla? 70/week saved time's 4 weeks is 280 a month! that's the car payment right there!
