  1. They said on Channel 6 he was going in excess of 100 mph.No wonder he crashed,speed kills remember.I bet that guys insurance agent just crapped a brick.
  2. I didn't care for the look of the GTO and haven't driven one but have raced LS1 cars and can say they are quick stock.I think GM killed another car through poor marketing and by not listening and responding to customers.I would buy one over a Z06 because of the backseat,I've been through a 2 seater and they just don't work for a Father of 3.The GTO is a car you go to work and say "I seen a GTO last night" you don't do that with Mustangs,Camaros,Firbirds or 95% of other performance cars that are out there now.

    Yea,I actuallly work for Lexus Of Dublin so our Lead Tech has a call in to Chicago to see if there is a way to put a switch on it so I can shut it on/off when I want.
  4. I think it'd be funny to put one on my wifes Sienna.I'm sitting at a stoplight and a guy in a Dodge Caravan pulls up beside me,I look over and purge a little nitrous in the air.I think it be worth the price and work for install to see the look on his face.
  5. I love the F40.I remember an article on a guy in Cali that drove one everyday,they said insurance was about $25k a year.I seen an F40 downtown at a carshow years ago and I remember how bare the interior was,it was strictly bussiness.I think the F40 is the only Ferrari I would really like to have,the others just don't really do anything for me.I seen one in Dublin on 161 when I was going to buy a 68 Lemans off a guy that lives there.I told the guy I'd just seen an F40 and he said yea I see them all the time cause the Dealerships up here.I realized he didn't know one Ferrari from another and just let it go.

    I am trying to figure out how to shut the VSC off.I have a on/off switch for the traction control but none for the VSC so I'm wondering how it will interfere when I autox it.

    Welcome,autox is awesome.I want to take the IS out this summer.I've only done it once when I worked for Mercedes they let me take a brand new AMG car out with the Mercedes Club.Greta fun.
  9. The only thing worse than Rap and Hip/Hop is when a white kid tries to do it.I have a 13 yr old son and picked him up at a dance last week where I seen a lot of kids like the one in the video,hat sideways,long sweatshirt,baggy jeans walking all ghetto.My boy hopped in the car and I said "if I ever see you acting or looking like that I'll beat you so bad you won't be able to walk." He knows I wouldn't beat him but knows how I feel about that.Don't get me started on this.
  10. Why buy the SLR,you can lease for about $10k a month.I remember when the GNX was new and people were asking $60k for them then,1 of 547.Look up a Hemi Cuda and see what they are going for.I wouldn't pay $100k but I don't have $100k to spend on a toy.And before people start, run a bone stock Hemi Cuda against a bone stock GNX and I think you'll be surprised.
  11. That cannot be good for you physically.I would think that would create all kinds of problems.

    I'm new

    I don't know.Welcome.
  13. I don't care what makes a car accelerate as long as you get to the finish line first.I remember the Turbo Olds of the 60's,the Supercharged T-birds in the late 50's and on and on.Horsepower is horsepower.
  14. The Truimph looks cool too.I've always like old sports cars like that.A guy I know just picked up a NICE Sunbeam Tiger.
  15. Man I was close,next time I will search before responding.I used to work for Mercedes so I knew it was a looooong time ago and it was them.
  16. Welcome.nice Z car.What's that in the garage,Austin,MG?
  17. Isn't that the one that they found in New Orleans after Katrina?Did you guys get that e-mail?
  18. I was expecting more.I wouldn't try it though.
  19. Welcome,some pics and info on your car.
  20. I've heard you can't polish a turd when I'm washing my Mustang.That Volvo will be a sleeper but that's a lot of money to put into a Volvo wgn.
  21. It's a Mustang,it is a everything slayer.
  22. Still got them?I got a truck and can get them anytime.
