Yeah, I constantly mistyped on my 5S.

That's the exact problem i have with my optimus f6. the keyboard is so damn small. Luckily it is pretty accurate with autocorrect, doesn't even bypass swear words, it autocorrects to them lol.

Remember when iOS actually had "Depth" to its design and IMO, not only looked really good but made perfect sense???

 

I thought it looked terrible. Would of never considered an iphone before ios7. Android looked much sleeker back then.

Explain? Like I thought it would be difficult to use small phones with big hands.

I like being able to one hand phones. The 6s is barely one handable corner to corner if you have big hands. Only justification for why I want to go a plus phone when I prefer smaller is because the 6s is already challenging enough for me to use (mostly type) one hand.

really? The 6s feels almost too small in my hands to use daily. But this is mostly bc my parents have large android phones. The 7+ feels like a large android phone, which I enjoy, and it has a really nice camera. But why a plus when a 6s is already challenging to use?

More battery, more pixels, better cameras.

@iDeFecZx that clio must be fun to max out on track. But why not get the V6 version of it. That is a truly awesome little car. Makes around 260 BHP and 300 Nm. Screaming N/A 3.0L V6 behind you where the backseats used to be. From the factory  

 

As much as I love the V6, theyre essentially a deathtrap. The 182 Trophies have the awesome dampers that are essentially the same as were used in the Touring cars

I can see the obvious hatchback obsessuion here.

Yea haha, whilst I do like a huge variety of cars theres so many I wouldnt actually buy.

[JoaoPRSousa]

 

So there you go, it’s not got a gearstick. When I can find a Phase 2 Peugeot 106 Rallye that isn’t ridiculous money, then I’ll have the best of both worlds: M3 daily and silly French hatchback for weekend blasts. Anyway, I digress.

Ben Chandler sold (?) his C63 W204 Sedan and bought an F80 M3. hehe

He didn't get a manual tho, but as he pointed out, manual in London must be a pain the ass. One more reason for me not to move to London (besides the fact that they pay an absurd amount of money to circulate in central London)  Norwich is where it's at tho, close to the Lotus factory and test track huehue

Lotus's are more daily friendly, yet not appropriate. (the Elise 220 isn't that bad tbh, I'd daily and track one)

id say the evora is the most daily-able car they make...

The Evora is more of a luxurious sports car. Not quite as raw as an Elise (not even going to mention the Exige ). An Elise compared to an Evora is a toy. (unless you're going for something like a GT430)

you don't have to tell me. I've driven an exige sport 260

I liked it... would be tough to get used to though lol

I wouldn't daily an Exige... In an Elise, it is do-able, in an Exige, I doubt it.

 

I went for a demo lap on Lotus's test track with one of their experienced drivers (not Martin Donnelly unfortunately) on an Elise 220 Sport. Entering chicanes at almost 130mph is pretty scary

4.28 weighted, 3.72 unweighted. and my sat scores aren't that good either at 1280 last time. i'm just above average, not the top of the top.

I'd much prefer an Evora over the other two tbh bc more comfortable and more power.
