POS VETT

Congratulations, Kale & Beth.

Missing filler/garnish panel for the license plate cove.

The front bumper of the white C5 bugs me.

I could leave my Pontiac outside with the key in it and nobody would ever steal it. It's thief-proof.

Right now I'm in truck-search mode, so I'm going to go with that format. I want a truck that can handle hooliganism yet it can still function as a truck. I don't need it to tow sixteen tonnes, but four would be plenty. 6- to 8-speed manual transmission, 2WD, independent suspension front and back, sport-tuned track-inspired suspension with center of gravity rivaling that of a Corvette. Engine would be detuned at around 600hp or so in at least a V8 form, V12 preferred, around 8 to 9 liters. Naturally- aspirated, absolutely no forced induction. Monocoque, space-frame, seam-welded titanium body with bending and twist rigidities that will make a Corvette envious. Load bearing body panels, bonded at minimum, preferably welded. Suspension is double wishbone, bell cranks, pushrod, inboard-mounted coil-over-damper. Heim joints, ball-and-socket throughout. Cockpit-adjustable dampers and anti-sway bars. Two-speed rear end with clutch-type LSD and eletrically-actuated differential lock with a pump and a heat exchanger. Strengthened gears throughout, I'd be tempted to run straigh-cut gears in the gearbox coupled with an oversized multi-disc clutch. Wrap all that up in a body resembling a Pagani Huayra. Brush-finished titanium body panels, foam-filled structure cavities, and double-sealed doors and glasses. Those would do for now

Roughly $30/mo. You would be hard-pressed to find one cheaper. Is it individual space like a garage or just one large building?

Photos are rather "cloudy". Nice angles.

Trolling thread.

How cheap is cheap? Under $10k? Under $5k? $1400?

I'm going to wind steel wire around myself along with an iron core to create my own micro magnetosphere and maintain the magnetic condition that my body needs. *sigh*

What kid ?

We are so doomed.

Is there 185/55/16 or 195/55/16? If so, is there space in the fender wells for 1/2-3/4" larger tire?

Kewl

Tires have about 5000 miles left now ...

I'm mesmerized by the 'ute instead. That would be so sweet towing my Z06.

Welcome onboard!

Cool

15 out of 20 as in 3 out of 4 wheels? Improper torque (as in too low) will cause broken studs. Improper seat matching (cone on ball or vice versa) will cause loosening of the nuts and eventually broken studs due to fatigue loading.

On the opposite side, I run wheels intended for BMW (5x120 PCD) on 5x120.65 hubs and never a problem. I've also run 5x115 PCD on 5x114.3 and never a problem either.

If it's the '4-'6 GTO, the wheel PCD is 5x120. The same for the current F-body.

Are you in any position to keep the Accord and to buy a faster, instead of semi-fast, instead?

The car wouldn't be hard to spot. Finding the driver in a sea of people is a different story. Maybe you should wear a name tag

Yes, I have two Mechanical Engineering degrees from OSU. I used to do failure investigation for oil & gas pipeline.
