I bought a performance car and when I drive, I like to perform. Like the Tao says," a vase is only useable because of its empty space." Likewise, why buy this car if you don't drive it like it deserves to be driven. I'm not saying that you should be reckless, but it is a SPORTS car. Be safe, drive hard, and have fun.

i used to have a 99" 4 door mirage and drove/beat it like it was an evo, at 40,000 miles, the car is dead. later fixed it,sold it and got an evo.i had my evo for a month, drove it quite hard but have limits,i've only dropped the clutch only twice. I want my car to last this time.

i've never "abused" mine...

sure, i've put it through it's paces, but i've never hit fuel cut, nor have i ever dumped the clutch...

i bought this car more for the novelty than to beat the **** out of it...

"yeah, still here buddy"..
