I loved my ETA 325e. It was such an amazing car. There were a set of cars I've dubbed the "econo-rockers", and this was my first. For a car to be an econo-rocker, I had to be able to get 30 mpg out of it on the highway, and it had to handle and accelerate very quickly. And it had to have a reasonable price tag to buy. I've run into very few cars like this. Besides my ETA, I had a Saab 900 Turbo that fit the bill, and my current A4 mostly fits. I think the 123d would be the ultimate econo-rocker. |

The original owner of my "college BMW" also did a ECU upgrade. That's when you had to pull out the ECU and mail it off to get a physical change of your PROM chip (desoldering involved) from a tuner like Autothority. |

I would have counted the Prelude as an econo-rocker, if it weren't for the crappy handling from the front wheel drive. That was the Prelude's fatal flaw. |
