After great debate, I finally bit the bullet and ordered an RS 2.0 in 5 speed. I couldn't decide whether to get the auto or manual, but finally decided. I've driven the Xb in automatic before, but wanted something that'll make the car feel a little more alive. Funny thing is, when I drove that Xb for the first time, I thought, "what a piece of crap"...I had the car for a month or so. The more I drove it, the more I loved it. It's got pretty good utility for a small car, it's quite roomy, and it should get the job done for my needs. I would be primarily using it to commute back and forth to work and was only worried about having to drive the 5 sp in bumper to bumper, but who cares..I'm not going to get into the whole "Auto vs. Manual" thing...
My only problem is I'm trying so hard not to modify the car much, probably limit myself to a set of rims and some suspension work (springs/shocks/sways/STB). Gotta love that search button!Other than that, I see so many other things people are doing, It's killing me to resist, but I must be strong..I've modified quite a few cars in my time, but stopped with the last two, because they were leased. The Xb will be purchased/financed. My other car that I have currently, an Infiniti G35x lease is generally unmodified with the exception of a new set of higher performance tires on wide rubber (235/50/17 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S)..Anyways I should be zooming mid April!
