            well it's been snowing here in iowa so I can't really do anything but I had this project to build a mousetrap car in science and i made it super low hahah. I thought you guys might get a kick out of this.

                haven't updated this thread in a while. So...long story short the probe got smashed on the front end. Wasn't worth fixing it because of how much I purchased it for and I sold the whole thing to a friend because he grenaded his mx-6 engine. Really sad to see it go but ice and cars don't mix.
                Hopefully getting either a 4th gen vw jetta or 2001 saturn sc2 depends on which is better condition.

                  I vote jetta. But I'm biased

                  Everyone hates on MK4s, but they are very solid cars with a huge aftermarket. Mine is a 2.0 manual, and albeit slow, it is pretty fun to drive and gets good gas mileage. The only problem I've had in a year and a half *knock on wood* is a pesky oil leak coming from the plug, but I'll probably just get a new hybrid pan and plug for like $90.

                  (moral of the story: they aren't nearly as unreliable and expensive to repair as people make them sound. Unless you buy an auto. Don't buy an auto.)

                    it's definately a manual. Never buying an automatic in my life. I'm just kind of nervous about all the electronics cause I **** wiring. but I've always wanted to take a new interior and drivetrain and put it in like an 85 vw jetta.

                      I haven't had an electronic problem yet, but apparently they are pretty common. it just has strange quirks. When I'm turning the radio up, the volume goes down before going up, there's a few rattles, and the shorting got weird and I had to adjust the linkage. I also haven't messed with any electronics yet. I'll be switching to a three spoke steering wheel, and its pretty common for that to trip the airbag light, so that'll be interesting.

                      Overall, its been super reliable and a great daily driver for me, but mine is the 2.0 which is one of the more reliable engines, if you get a vr6, your experience may be completely different.
