What do you think our cars were made for? What do you use it for? where do you feel it performs best? Rationalize your answer and describe why.

Personally, I'm a canyon junkie. Can't get enough of those blind decreasing-radius turns and off-camber switchbacks!
The F/R layout, close to 50-50 weight distribution and suspension setups go to best use in the hills or on an auto-X course.
Again, that's just my humble opinion!

there's no option for "transportation device used in red-headed stepchild beating type driving"......

anyways, it's all about how your car looks. &nbsp;Nothing looks better than that gleaming, shining, glossy 240sx peaking through the caked on grime and brake dust of a car braking through the corner's entrance..... &nbsp;damn that's hot.

Has to be the track. &nbsp;I love seeing the 240 carving through the cones or rumble strips on the open track...
