test drive report, i am buying new car.

Sat 24 Jun 2006 02:08:31 AM
my micra is being dismantled shortly so its bye bye time to my great k11. will be sad.
yesterday and today have been testing the 3 cars which i have narrowed down as my replacement. they are the celica 190, colt CZT and the Civic Type-R. celica looks so nice but gearchange abit slow, CZT could definately live with, easy to drive. civic type r, a bit boring even though the engine and gearbox is fantastic. after refleting on them all it hit me really hard when i drive home. my micra is more fun to drive than all of them put together. none of them come close to the raw feeling of the road, the great gearbox. excellent power/weight
none of the cars i tried gave a kick in the back which would make me think they were in a different league.
but choose i must to get a new car. i think a coilover kit will be on the cards whichever model i choose. i need get back to touch with the tarmac again.
