Sold Metro XFi - Purchased Swift GTi

Just a quick update. As you may know, I sold my XFi on Ebay. Was going to drive my SW until my 97 3cylinder Project is done, but at 17.5mpg I couldn't do it. I purchased a 1989 Suzuki Swift GTi and may be selling the wagon instead. I won't have any MPG/Gaslog for a little while, but did post some pics/info in my garage...http://www.gassavers.org/garage/view/219
...Won't be a fuel sipping XFi, but a far sight better then the Taurus Wagon (and a hoot to drive! ). Will establish a base line under normal driving conditions prior to any mods.

Don't mod it for better economy, but for more brass, trust me on this, the Swift are too fun. If you want better economy, should have gone for another Met.

This was another almost in my book. I found one with no title, so he had trobule selling, but I can work around that. I went back to make an offer on the car and it and the dealer were gone.

Oh man, that is a super awesome car! I want it so badly. The only thing that i heard is kind of a buzz-kill is the shift from first to second. Apparently the second gear is too tall. Ill be getting one ASAP tho.

Congrats!
