Funny you should ask... ;) This year I got a 95 Saturn SC2, which with a few small exceptions is pretty much identical to your SL2. So I've done a little research on this. ;) A good place to start. O

OK, here we go... :) If my standards were those of your friend's, I'd go for the Miata. Even if he's not autocrossing, it's a fun car for tearing up the back roads. The relatively low power (compared

I can see why some might think they're better - flashing lights generally attract more attention than steady lights. That's why emergency vehicles light up like Christmas trees. But to me, part of t

<sarcasm> Hey, I think you've stumbled on the answer here... How about cars that have their brakes permanently engaged? That way they can't move, and if they can't move, nobody can crash, and nobody

A snow storm does not equal "broad daylight" in my mind. Nor does rain. Like Bruce said, that's when the intelligent driver turns on their headlights. :) - Justin

Personally, I'm more in favor of teaching proper headlight use and enforcing it. But then again, I'm in favor of making driver training more like pilot training. It won't happen, since it would mean

Indeed. I'd go one step further and require that on new cars all turn signals, front AND rear, should be amber - red is reserved for tail and brake lights. I believe some countries already have this

Speaking strictly in terms of driving skill alone, I'd say Stock would be the best place to start. Stock is the most limiting class in terms of vehicle modifications, and therefore the driver has to

I think you're right, but I also think there's more to the question than what's harder to drive. For a novice, a stock car handles far more like the average street car they're used to than some of t

I've been using Stillen Metal Matrix pads with stock rotors on my Saturn for a couple of months now, and I'm very happy with them. Better than OEM stopping power, harder to lock up, and no dust build

Actually, on the flip side, if you compare ES and HS, you'll find that many of the same models appear in both classes, but in different trim. For example, the Ford Escort LX in HS and Escort GT in E
