RE: Goodspeed
Can you? Sure. David DDs his STi on coils in a fixed-back racing seat.
It's just whether or not you want it bad enough. I wouldn't go back to DDing the E36 up here. It's too stiff, too loud, too much of a cop magnet and the clutch is too heavy to ride in traffic. However, one could make the argument that I'm just being a girly little bitch and it's not that bad to drive. I wouldn't consider DDing a modded NA or NB miata or some other hardcore stripped out sports car up here, but I might be more inclined to attempt something like that after I leave the area, maybe.
If you're on the fence about buying another toy, hold onto the XJ for DD duty and get you some cheap little go-kart to have fun with. That's the way to do it up here IMO, have a car like that to drive when you're in the mood for it, and a DD for when you're not.
