I kept my old (1995) Subaru rather than selling or trading in--it has never given me problems and is great in the snow.

That's my other ride. The Fit is my boring, frugal daily driver. The Ninja is my going-out-for-fun weekend toy.

It's not super-fast by bike standards - with a pro testing it on a track, it'll hit 60 in about 3.5-4 seconds, a quarter mile in around 12, and tops out around 130 or so. Still, it was cheap to buy, cheap to fuel, cheap to insure, and offers a ton of fun.

my fit is my only car...but in terms of household cars, my wife also drives a fit :P mine is crystal black pearl, hers in blue sensation pearl.

if I could afford a second, fast and fun car, it would probably be something like a Civic SiR or Integra Type R.

Yup, the 250R was redesigned with VERY similar lines, and looks more or less like a 9/10 scale 650R. Easiest way to tell the difference is the exhaust - the 250R has a left-side pipe, the 650R has the Buell-style under-engine can.

I started on a 250R, which is slow, no doubt, but still a lot of fun. It's a real blast to wind up a tiny engine and let it scream... though 10,000 RPM going down the freeway starts to sound like a hair-dryer with handlebars after a while.

I'd love to add a old car of some kind. I'm thinking a beetle, microbus, or maybe an old MG. I won't consider it until the Fit is paid off though.
