Lol, to each his own, brother. I'll take my 4500 buck Insight over twenty of your 225 dollar Sentras all day long.

I've driven three separate 200 buck cars over the years, and a station wagon that I got for free. One had the handle of a fishing rod for a shifter and manual wipers (as in I stuck my arm out the window with the wiper in it) and I limped them all along for years since I was cheap and broke, but it wasn't really much fun to drive any of them. I saved long and hard for this one, and I'm gonna enjoy the ride!

The sunroof really wasn't a selling feature to me either. I really don't like them, but my wife fell in love with it, and since I make her carpool with me to keep miles off her new Explorer, I have to keep mama happy!

The hood vent is actually a solar panel, which I think I'm gonna move to the rear window and cover up the hole with some kind of small hood scoop. Haven't really figured that one out yet and I'm open to any suggestions!
