  1. Uh-uh, you can't just slip a Mark VII into the background of six pics without saying something about it. +rep for good intro and nice cars.
  2. Sorry for the thread jack. Back on topic. McCain is scum.
  3. My thing is, if you want the kiddies to learn religious dogma, send em to Sunday school. Don't use my tax dollars to subject my kids to creationism, and don't sacrifice my kids' education because some nut who thinks you can make people out of mud gets their panties in a pinch.
  4. Nope. Sorry. ID is an entirely religious based argument(I won't dignify it by calling it a theory. That term is specific to hypotheses that have withstood rigorous questioning and testing by the scientific method, which ID has ALWAYS failed), and it therefore does not belong in our schools, unless it is taught as part of a broad-based religion awareness class.
  5. Absolutely. If anyone remembers from a couple moths ago in the Kitchen I WILL NOT TOLERATE any politician who advocates so-called "intelligent design theory" in our educational system. Frankly, even Obama's advocacy of faith-based programs annoys me.
  6. What, by nominating a boring white guy with decades of experience as his VP? The guy gave up a ton of votes by not choosing Hillary, because he didn't believe she was right for the job. What do you want him to do, go Micheal Jackson and bleach his skin?
  7. And yet, you want to vote in McCain, who has said he's basically going to continue Bush's tax and foreign policies indefinitely. Make up your mind.
  8. Sorry, but McCain lost the last tiny bit of respect I might have still had for him, all because he chose that woman. Can you honestly tell me that you believe that the GOP would nominate her as a Presidential candidate? Do you believe that she could even possibly handle the office of the President of the United States of America? No way in Hell. So why the hell would they nominate her as VP to a man who has had numerous bouts with cancer? For no other reason than to grab votes left open by bitter Hillary supporters.
  9. Throw it up on http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com.
  10. Sorry, maybe I should be more clear. I was stating that this is not a retro car, as it is just the latest generation of a popular car in Australia. And BTW, the GTO was hobbled by yet another stupid choice by GM to hold the good motor from release for a year. So everyone waited til 05 to buy one with the 6.0, leaving the 5.7s on the lot. That screwed them up bad, because the GTO never got the momentum to keep sales high. If they had brought them out with the LS6 from the start, they probably would have sold a ton more overall. Anyway, it hardly matters for the G8ST, as this is intended from the start to be a low-volume niche car, not an attack on some new market.
  11. BTW, why is it that the only FWDers that complain about torque steer are the ones that have no torque?
  12. If I can manage a new car by the end of next year, this is it. And BTW, there is nothing retro, or useless about it. The Maloo, the Holden version, is extremely popular in Australia, and GM is making no changes other than some minor emissions and cosmetic changes. The biggest expense in bringing this over from Australia is sacrificing a bunch of them to crash-testing. The payload is a bit over a half-ton, and they actually mean it. BTW, it is an independent rear suspension, the same as the regular G8 GT, except for heavier springs and shocks.
  13. Holy smokes...I will NOT be lining up with you at track days anymore...personal rule, I don't race next to wheelstanders. No offense.
  14. Nice shots! That first flower is something else.
  15. Not a silencer, just a flash suppressor.

    So...

    So what happened to the dude who voiced Arthur?
  17. Actually, I was the one who said he should mod the Cavvy, but I didn't realize it was a base 4dr. On the other hand, it would make a hell of a sleeper.... As it is, it's a great little commuter. If I had a long commute, I'd probably go for that. Figure out what kind of fun you want from your car before you buy. If you just want to drag, get an F-body, a Mustang, or just about anything with a small-block Chevy, 5.0, 4.6, or just about any MOPAR V8. If you want to autoX or road-race, you need to do a lot more research.
  18. Everybody's. Hope you don't chafe easy.
  19. Late 80s to mid 90s, the most common years for hardcore builds, unless you want to go back to the 2002(the model, not the year). After the mid-90s, BMW kind of shifted their focus to the 5-Series, and going after Mercedes.
  20. That's the first kit on a 3000GT that I've actually liked. Looks like it improves cooling a ton. What mods do you have planned for it? Oh, and +rep for a decent intro.
  21. Is it too much to expect a decent headshot these days?
