    Need a second car, am I crazy to consider another 2?

    Need another car in the next month or so. I love my Mazda2 enough to have another for just commuting needs. Found a 2013 white sport 5speed for 12.5K, new. Other cars I am considering are the Spark, Sonic, Rio and Versa/note. Anybody here have two Mazda2s?

    Installing Hawk HPS brake pads, only one has a metal clip extender.

    I received my HPS pads today and noticed on one pad only having a metal clip on the back side rivet. Is this normal to have one specific pad to have a metal clip?
