  1. akula, i agree . this thread is full of fail
  2. nice car the gsl-se is the one to get - only FB w/ a 13b and fuel injection vs. 12a and carb
  3. P21S is the best car washing stuff I have ever used its like $15 for a 16oz bottle though! but damn it looks good. I would think most people dont think its worth it. Another tip would be to use a 'quick detailer' ie. spray wax after you wash. With the spray and a microfiber towel , it should only take 5-10 minutes and will give you a much nicer shine than just a wash
  4. this will have to do for now http://40roll.com/40roll.jpg
  5. not like that hasnt been done before... 40roll anyone?

  8. Tomorrow is the big day! iPhone! I am selling my ipod. $140 Its an 8GB, black (non-so-common) 2000 songs. I will include a USB/ charge cable with it. I am not sure I have headphones for it (I have some Shures that I'm not selling) but you can always pick up a set of iPod headphones for only $10 on ebay. The body is anodized aluminum. Color screen . Has typical wear on the edges but overall in nice shape and the screen is perfect. http://static.flickr.com/85/251953381_79b39572da.jpghttp://cdn.overstock.com/images/products/0/8/8717.jpg Thanks for looking
  9. silver I will try to post pics soon. But it looks like any 2002 with alloys, sunroof Just got a new car, and although I didnt need the $ for a downpayment, having 3 cars at this point is pointless. mounted new tires today
  10. I want to get a 3G iphone next week. im sure itll take a while to get that thing figured out, although apple's UI is usually pretty intuitive

  13. Let this be an example of why you set up trust funds for your children with specific goals (college, monthly disbursements, payments to each child) etc. This guy sounds like a moron and will be broke in a few years

  15. alcohol and pot =/ rehab meth, crack, heroin = rehab
  16. 1. keep emailing 2. give up 3. ??
  17. im giving all my money to the guy who got his Audi booted on VWvortex
  18. Just wanted to add some fun math to this thread so people can understand how good of a deal this is. $25,000 car @ 6.5% interest for 72 months = $420 a month , $30,257 total. $25,000 car @ 0.0% interest for 72 months = $347 a month, $25,000 total. Damn good deal.
  19. Good thinking. But the last A4 came out as a 2002 model, the S4 did not come out until early 2004 and then it got a slight refresh in 2005.5, and the RS4 did not come out until 2007. Given this timeline, and the new A4 is coming out as a 2009 model, I would say it will be 3 years AT THE EARLIEST that there is a new RS4 - probably worth the wait, the new A4 looks great, but realistically you'll be waiting a long, long time. If I wanted a fast ass sedan , I'd be getting an M3, RS4 or a C63 AMG, but only the Audi is AWD.
  20. the IS-F is RWD I would say the RS4.. its amazing.
  21. What kind of bullshit comparison is that? The RX-3 was produced throughout most of the 70s (till 1978). At the time, Mazda has also produced other rotary cars including RX-2, RX-4, and the REPU (rotary pickup!). It was in 1979 that Mazda decided to produce a pure, lightweight sports car with a similar vision as Colin Chapman had with lotus. The RX-7 was born, and it was an affordable 2 seater with a similar goal performance-wise of the Nissan 240z. The RX-7 sold like hotcakes from 1979 to 1985 (1st gen) because it was affordable and somewhat quick. Yada Yada Mazda came out with the 2nd gen which was a bit heavier but the Turbo II was quick for its time (1987-1991) and one of the best handling cars of that era. Then of course that leaves the FD RX-7 (1993-1995) where Mazda saw the NSX and 300zx as threats and stepped up the performance with a lightweight (sub-2800 lbs) pure sports car that " didn’t just win the numbers game, it humiliated the field" when tested against Corvettes, 300zx, Porsche 911. ... and you dont need an LS1 to make good power in an RX-7 .. The Evo, in a lot of respects, is similar in goals of the RX-7 - fast, good handling, affordable. But it is on the opposite end of the spectrum when it comes to looks and general layout/packaging. About the only thing the RX-7 and the RX-3 have in common is the rotary engine.
  22. its not an economical car. it just looks like one. just like the guy who soups up his civic and it actually is fast (relatively). He will make similar arguments around the fact that it actually is fast so its ok that it has 4 doors and a tall greenhouse. He will also argue it has a motor that was race-bred (whatever swap this civic owner chooses) and it has a turbo, so it is fast. At the end of the day , its still a freakin Civic - just like at the end of the day you're still driving a Lancer.
  23. well, i still think its more of a 'bread race car' than the evo, whatever a bread race car is. and the fact that one 'does not buy it for a comfort car' bottom line is this guy is in denial of the fact that an evo is a souped up economy car.. thats all it will ever be, and it looks like poo
