    IMO the M42 is a completely different beast in terms of powerband/drivability. Those engines are extremely peppy.

    But yeah I think M20s are cheaper to come By.

      Yeah will most likely never happen as the coworker has a new baby on the way and two other cars that are just about ready to fall apart.

      Meh. I'm over it.

        I'm mostly upset because I know it wouldn't be in good hands with him.

        This guy has an E28 with a cracked oil pan and keeps spending money on stupid shit like 40.00 eBay short shift kits, cut springs, etc. Etc.

        All his cars look ok but drive like shit. A definite hard Parker.

            It's his car, let him do what he wants. Makes yours all the more valuable. If he's happy, that's all that matters!

                  Word. I cringe everytime someone buys a decent zinno car, but part of me hopes they get rear ended so I can keep building my collection of zinno panels :rofl:

                  Also, James: petition to change ^that guy's name to "Sailor Joel."

                  All in favor, please second this motion.

                      Name or title? I feel like these could have different implications for my muscle memory.

                            Lol. That one works too, but I thought "Sailor Joel" was fitting, considering his current name, and it being a play on the tattoo artist "Sailor Jerry."

                            Sort of a joke, but James really ought to change it.

                            Edit: 5k! Woot.
