You mean one that I can't see under, around, over or through? If I used it for its utility all the time, I'd have a different opinion. Most such vehicles get used for what they're best at once in a blue moon and only on weekends...
I'd much prefer to be sitting low, can haul a couple of bags of groceries and pay for someone to deliver the big stuff. Much more fun!

Oh, the S is the perfect winter car for those who like challenges. Great heater, great defroster (if you have the hardtop), the excitement of driving to work in the midst of a blizzard... it's all there and more.

I'm with you Red Rush!
My '95 Nissan has 115,000 miles on it, I bought it at 26,000 miles for about $14k, so I have had it for about 90,000 miles. I get 20+mpg, I have yet to meet a snow storm that prevented me from going anywhere I wanted, and I do use it a lot to haul stuff, especially now being a home owner.
Yes, there may be some things out there that get better gas mileage, but I don't have that far to drive and I can not let fuel economy control my life.
I know this will always be a subject of debate around here because the idea of driving the S in the winter just does not work for some of us. And to make it worse, in a couple of years when I make the big leap, some of you will think I have lost my mind, but believe me, I will be my but off.
The perfect color to tow My Spa

I apologize for the really late response. I haven't had the chance to up the site due to problems with internet cable and my room losing power. Anyways the time has come for the revealment of my daily. Aside from my 2002 Honda S2000 I own a 2000 BMW 323i. Heavy miles (some 70000 miles) but in a clean condition, and yes..itz green (Metallic Fern Green is what BMW would call it )
