Hubcaps!? you *****

, Those momo's were like 300 bucks a wheel! and they were terrible on the car! I gave them to my girlfriend at the time and she put them on her Eclipse, and then promptly drove the car into a ditch! I said" jesus, if you didn't like the wheels you could have just said something, you didn't have to total the ******' car"!

The chasiss has to be reinforced to compensate for the lack of a steel roof so it will usually add 300 to 400 pounds as compared to a coupe version of the same model car. If I wanted to cut down on weight I would buy a coupe

you dont notice the weight when your crusing at 80mph with

the top down having a conversation in a normal tone of voice

suddenly the weight gain doesnt matter anymore
