    Metro - or - Le Baron?

    car pooling is illegal, there is no mass transit, its too far to walk or bike, there is no way of getting around driving yourself, which of these would you rather have to drive?

    1991 Geo Metro convertible



    - or -

    1989 Chrysler Le Baron

    Ah, my parents used to own a 1989 Chrysler Lebaron GTS before getting the new Accord, so even though that wasn't a convertible, I would still go with the Lebaron. The Metro is too small and ugly but the Lebaron still has some class.

    There's a Geo Metro convertible in town here that looks exactly like that XD. I'd go for the LeBaron, it's just better. Although, I'd really rather have a 2-door Metro hatchback, better mileage. But as for the convertible, yeah... no.
    No-so-proud owner of a 1986 Mustang LX with the 2.3L four. Anyone wanna buy it? $500. I'll post some pics and info in the user's rides section soon.

    I don't need anything too fancy, just something that can get me to the sun and back in 5 seconds flat.

    I wanna see a comparison test between the Saleen SR, Lamborghini Gallardo, Ford GT, and Ferrari Challange Stradale. Anyone wanna help me with that? I already know who'd win, though ;).

    I would take neither personally, but the Metro would be better due to being cheaper to insure and run.
