You've never driven an old mini cooper. A 550 would feel like a volvo.

Yeah, mine is fiberglass! It has the structural integrity of the beer COOLER - LOL!

I've driven it in Los Angeles several times. Drove it through 5 hours of straight driving rain at freeway speed, also drove it in the snow. Okay, all three of those SUCKED, and the snow trip was real interesting with that cars power to weight ratio, but not one made me afraid to do it again if I need to get somewhere.

I might be a chick, but I have muchos huevos!

Actually, the Happy Toyz truck was a better pick than the Ghostbusters ride... What was scary about that?
