well, the new car is here....

i'm not quite sure what i'll be driving yet. A woman that works with my dad sold us a '98 Kia Sportage (small SUV). 95,000 miles, well maintained. It's black, with a tan leather interior. it's AWD.

now for the bad part....it has a 130-hp 4-banger. the curb weight is 3200 lbs. as you could imagine, 130 hp and 3200 lbs. don't go well together. This thing must be slower than my 81-year old grandmother.

i may not be driving it though, my dad is considering giving it to my brother, and giving me my brother's car, a '98 Saturn SL2 with 120,xxx miles on it. either way, i'm screwed, but i think i'd like the Sportage simply because it's more luxurious than the Saturn. I'll have pictures of whichever car i get later on today, hopefully.
