You should hit him on the head with a carbon fiber baseball bat. It's a very brittle material, lightweight and doesn't break easily. I'll lend you some of my muscle power if you wan't

Re: cars for girls

Uhh Haha no. It's a road (racing) bike. The reason I said downhill is cause that's the only way I can get up to 60 mph 
I bike to work and back btw.

Ugh.. You so should've gotten a stick. The slushbox kills that vehicle. |

Nah, as Chotoo says, the hills in downtown Seattle preclude that, especially for someone like me who's never driven a stick before. People think that SF is pretty rough, but I'm willing to bet that Seattle is close, if not worse.
This car is perfect for my needs and adds enough fun to driving to keep me happy. Mashallah.

Personally, I've never driven a stick in Seattle (rental cars only), but it doesn't seem that bad. (I've driven a stick in SF & that wasn't too bad). But yeah, I guess it'd be a bad place unless you had some time to learn and someone to teach you. You don't want to wind up with someone's fender stuffed up your tailpipe, especially given the way people drive in cities (rightupclosebehindeachother). Oh well, as long as you're happy with the car, that's what's important masha'Allah. It's a very nice car either way masha'Allah. Are you planning on doing anything to it? |

Um, apart from rubber floor mats for winter? 
Not planning to do much to it. I got it top of the line, so I'm happy with the stereo, performance is adequate for now, and I hate huge spoilers, etc. So I'll probably leave it as is. It has HID lights, 17in alloys, etc. so can't thing of too many other bells/whistles to add.
May look into a radar detector though...

Re: cars for girls
P.S. I love heated seats. Perfect for chilly mornings.

Do what my cousin does(keeps his Medical School badge handy), then when he gets pulled over, cries that he is speeding to the nearest hospital to be on call.
It has so far worked 7/10 times.
7 tickets X 140 a pop = $980.00
