A few days ago I was having some work done at my local garage. A blonde came in and asked for a seven-hundred-ten. We all looked at each other and another customer asked, "What is a seven-hundred-ten?" She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine, I have lost it and need a new one.." She replied that she did not know exactly what it was, but this piece had always been there. The mechanic gave her a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like. She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710. He then took her over to another car which had its hood up and asked "is there a 710 on this car?" She pointed and said, "Of course, its right there." If you're not sure what a 710 is Click Below. hotautoweb.com

Just noticed I said I expected the car to arrive mid-month, but didn't say which month. January. And changed it to include every available option. I got the 06 and 07 completely option-less because I didn't want the weight of things like subwoofers, but decided with how overweight I am, I shouldn't be concerned with saving a few gallons of fuel's weight if the options make the car easier to live with on a daily basis, which the 07 certainly isn't. It's only enjoyable to drive when I get the rare opportunity to lay into the loud pedal.
