Considering that I need it to take me to work every morning I don't think I'm going to make this one either.
:lol: I would totally run the 2002 if I didn't feel the same way. Like, the mounts/bushings are *ok* for the street and an occasional run up bent mountain, but I bet the transmission would fall out if I really started violently tossing it around. There's ONE, count it, ONE little rubber mount that locates the rear of the transmission, BY DESIGN. I guess I better find an E46 "for Jess" fast! :mrgreen:
Can I run the Element?
