Perceptions

Not to put the Toyota Echo down [nor anyone who's got one], but every time I see that car, I can't help but think of these little cars that I had as a kid, where to get them rolling, you would pass it over the surface[any] and they had a gear type mechanism that would gather speed the faster you rolled it...small wheels..tall cluncky body... not too pleasing esthetically..oh well, to each his own.

i hate those damn echo's, they look friggen wierd as hell

[mendel00985]

Yep, they sure do look ultra-weird but looks can be deceiving [no, I'm not sticking up for them] ;cause they've got a 1.8L w/ DOHC and they'll run your socks off if your not quick w/ the clutch....they are still abominably UGLY.

I actually had to drive one for 2 weeks when my last car was in the shop. It was humilating but that car did have some power. I actually kicked alot of cars asses off the line. I probably wrecked that tranny in 2 weeks. It is nice to drive though as long as you don't have to look at it.<BR>Jess
