Well each summer, the radio station at which I work gives away a car. Two years ago it was a Suzuki Vitara (mini-suv) with a v6. Last year it was a yellow New Beetle with cute little Daisy rims, and this year............... a Suzuki Aerio. I can't imagine more than fifty people will want to win this car. This thing is by far one of the ugliest automobiles I've ever seen. It looks like a bodykitted Toyota Echo that's been beat with an ugly stick. The suits are thinking about letting me pick some new rims for it, but I don't think that they'll help very much.

I haven't actually driven it yet, but from what I understand, it's a ballsy little machine. The engine is good for 140 horsepower, which isn't a terrible number for such a small car. It's also a five-speed, so at least it'll be entertaining to row through the gears.

Stay tuned for driving impressions. If I don't drive it into a lake first.
