New Car

[IrishGuy]

So, first off, sorry for neglecting the board for the past 6 mos or so. Things have been a bit hectic and finally are settling down. Let's hope it stays that way.

In order to make my grand entrance back onto Carspin, I figured I would start with a topic about the new car I just purchased yesterday.

However, it would be way too easy to just come right out and tell you guys what I purchased - so, let's see if you guys can get it by asking yes or no questions.

(I'll only answer one question at a time and will only respond to the next question immediately following my response - you can guess at any time)

First clue to start you off, notice that I'm posting this in the Mainstreamer Room.

Time to play!

If I'm in a fast-moving thread where I'm trying to answer things, like a GTC, I sometimes miss things posted between the time I started my post and the time I finished it.

[Raza]

It's not a manual and we have to play 20 questions to get it?

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

Fuck it, I'm not interested anymore.  Welcome back.

Mazda6?

Better pics to come...

[TBR]

We can pretty much conclude that it is either a Mazda that is difficult to find with a manual or isn't available with one. So I highly doubt it is a Miata.

Why the auto? No selection?

Why the auto? No selection?

I got sick of manual. I sit in rush hour traffic all the time on my way to and from work. It's nice to be able to put it in drive and go.
