um winter beater? Im a Northerner as well and know how much snow we get. I do not think its an ideal car for a winter beater but thats just my 2sense. Nice cars otherwise. I have a fantasy swap for an F20c into a CRX LOL.
Nice job on the new interior. It looks like it was a pretty simple straight forward job as opposed to doing the interior on a BMW. I heard they can be a pain in the ass.
