Guest jpurdy2003 Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 So I was heading out this evening to pimp some hoes here in Cleveland, and I saw something unusual. This was on some side street between Lakeshore and 185th. Anyone know what it is? I sure as shit don't. http://www.streetneeds.com/uploads/cars/Copyof27126.jpg http://www.streetneeds.com/uploads/cars/Copyof27127.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jpurdy2003 Posted May 27, 2004 Report Share Posted May 27, 2004 Anyone got more info on what a Renault Fuego is? I wonder how it'd stack up against my near-stock TSi AWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember driving a couple of fuegos back when they were a little more plentiful, they had some scrotum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted May 29, 2004 Report Share Posted May 29, 2004 Note also, perhaps the largest sunroof ever available! The full roof! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneRunnin72SST Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 My dad had an AMC dealership and for awhile also sold Renaults... Tonight I asked him about the Fuego's and he said that whenever you sold a Fuego you were sure to make a enemy. He said there was always one coming in with roof problems (they bowed, leaked, and flapped going down the road). Would be a fun car to thrash on though. ~Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tony_K Posted June 1, 2004 Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 Originally posted by The Great Milenko: Note also, perhaps the largest sunroof ever available! The full roof! Shawn - I can check that car out if you want. I'm up there every weekend. BTW - Lancia Scorpion/Montecarlo = full roof, too! No offense to Master Pee, but I'm a bit more familiar with Fuegos than "WTF is this?" ! tongue.gif EDIT : There are a few Deaux Cheveau's (sp) running around - they have bigger sunroofs than Fuegos!!

Guest Tony_K Posted June 1, 2004 Report Share Posted June 1, 2004 Clay - I'm sorry your parents have the misfortune of living so close to Holy Cross parish/school. I went there for eight miserable years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
