RE-Appreciation for the Celi

[Coolwheels00]

I'm one to get bored with cars easily. God know's I've owned enough (about 15 cars in 15 years)(seriously). I've had my Celi for a year and 3 months now and drive it exclusively. I've got 30k on it in those 15 months. I decided to drive my wife's accord today for a change of senery. It's a 99 EX with 150 hp and a 5 speed (stock). OMG, I have so much more love for my car after this experience. The Honda is SSSSOOOOO slow and in a corner, I felt like I was going to roll over from all the body roll. It felt like it took forever to stop and the radio sucks. Man, it made me really appreciate all the little things that the Celi does so well. I know that you can't compare the two cars, I'm not trying to do that. This is more geared towards; if you think your getting bored with your car, go drive something else. More than likely, you'll have a renewed appreciation for your car.

Yup ive been through that experience 3 times and it feels great each time when im back in the celi. first time had a 2002 maxima se as a rental for a few days. Nice car but couldnt feel the road well. Later down the line I had a 2002 solara and then a 2002 corolla. Everything you said is the same. Cant turn, brake, etc like the celi. :)

I have an 88 camry 5spd that I drive from time to time and it feels like such a piece of crap compared to the celi. It makes the Celi feel like driving a Ferrari it is so slow!

My friend let me take a spin in his 97 maxima auto tonight.

The engine is nice, the power is smooth, and I love the torque. But the top end couldn't compare, nor could the handling. I was sliding all over the damn place in those leather seats. The stereo sounded like ass too...

Still haven't driven a car that's more fun than my gt-s.

LOL! Coolwheels00 I'm glad that you started this one. Well as most of you know that I misshifted at the beginning of the year. Well I'm get my car back this weekend. I have been driving an 95 chevy lumia. Every day for the past month, I have called my parents to see want the news is on my car. I'm in Cali right know and my car is in Texas. I have a new look towards my car and I've miss it. So think God that I'm getting back this weekend.
