Default Rice???

Ok I had a 96 V6 that was rear ended and totalled. And I have a 2000 V6 which was stolen and found almost totalled. Considering my luck with stangs Im leaning toward rice as my next car If they total out my stang. Any and all feedback/suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

dont blame poor pony for your bad luck, just think of it as perfect timing to get a brand new 1.

Why go rice? I think it would be almost better to get a chevy then a rice burner. You'll regret it.

Unless, all you plan on doing is daily driving and no racing whatsoever. Then it wouldnt be all that bad because the good mpg etc.

He's not blaming the pony. He's blaming his bad luck, and apparently V6s are hot items where he's from.

my suggestion? anyting import you MUST have a wrx, rx7, or a supra.

Don't waste your time with FWD, you won't like it after riding around in rwd pony's all the time.

Im not blaming the pony. Neither of the accidents were my fault. I just seem to have bad luck with stangs, and Im not exactly made of steel. Also I need a DD for school and work, and import 4 bangers are good for gas mileage, which will help out cause I pay my own way. Also I only race when challenged, and considering my 96 was undefeated I am pretty good at choosing my battles.

Get a Z, those cars are so hot.

If I got an import, I think it'd be a Z.

I drove a v6 so even if the car is faster I would be dissapointed. The only FWD cars ive driven were a taurus and a sebring lx, Both made the 96 feel fast
