This! Learn that lean burn and you'll blow my DX away in no time. These are neat little cars. Great for some slow-car-fast fun or straight commuting. I'm not at all surprised that with the mileage on yours, it's still going strong. Mine is "only" 172k and feels super tight if not exactly new.
I'd highly recommend the manual steering if that interests you. The ratio is slow, but it's by far the lightest manual steering I've ever encountered, and the feedback through the wheel is fantastic. When I bought the car I actually thought it had power steering that was going on the fritz, so after the test drive I took a look for leaks, etc., and that's when I saw there was no power steering.
