Isn't this like the fourth thread that got merged into the Random and Miscellaneous thread?

I'd respond to that but I'd get yelled at for not using the PM feature. :wink:

(yes the powers that be think I post too many threads)

Hey! How'd they get to test drive the new Challenger already?

Buahahahahahahahahhhahah!!!! :lol:

I'd like to test drive those t!ts if you know what I mean. :wink:

P.S. You mean there's people who are not obsessed with cars

of the 1960s & 1970s, esp. drag cars? Who are these freaks!?

This guy is a true enthusiast. I'm not a big fan of Front-biased AWD but

this guy's car does scream! It's almost as fast as a Saturn.... V Rocket.

I'd love to drive that Eagle just once. 8.9 in the 1/4 mile is pretty damn

impressive. Esp if you're a one man opperaton. :blink:

Canadians are cool! This guy has a 1st gen. Maxima like myself AND

a classic 1970? 510. Very good pair of Datsuns.

Wow.... very very cool. First I'm hearing of this:

Conversion by Meteor of Piqua, OH, on a re-bodied

1937 vee-sixteen chassis for the Detroit Fire

Department, this huge ambulance was donated to

the department by its Fire Chief, Paxton

Mendelssohn, who had worked for many years for

the Fisher Brothers. In 1951 it was put on a V-8

chassis and remained in service into the seventies

I love our 1997 Infiniti Q45, it's a great car with very few

flaws but when I read this review I was a little confused.

It sounds morem like a factory issued press release than

a review. This guy has nothing but good things to say

abotu the Q45. It's all peaches & cream.

I mean I can find about half a dozen considerable flaws

and/or complaints about our car. A few related to

ergonomics, a few other inferior features as compared to

the 1997 STS. Like for one: the Northstar is SO much

more motor than the 4.1 short-stroke Q motor.

Anyway see what you think:

that reveiw... wow

he uses too many eloquencies in what seems to be an attempt to speak luxuriously in order to make the car seem more luxurious... like hes saying the car is so luxurious... he can only describe it with these big fancy words...

he says "canted" where "angled" would suffice... he easily couldve used "plenty" instead of "ample"... there are plenty of other examples but i already closed the window so i cant go back and look...

basically he's trying way too hard to make the car seem perfect... and its very easy to see through his facade

(i love how ironic what i just typed is... i said he used too many fancy words... yet i used "eloquencies" "suffice" and "facade"... but irony is funny... so ill leave it alone :P)

Well... yes, but for instance at 65+ MPH the sheetmetal on the

car's hood sways in the wind. WTF? Unacceptable. Also, 0-60

in like 7.8 sec. sucks when the STS does it in like 6.7, not that

I'm going to be needing to burn rubber in a luxury car but you

get the point.

The dead pedal in the Q sucks, the E-break sucks and is also in

the way of the crappy dead pedal and the trunk is very small

considering the size of the rear overhang. This is thanks to the

craptastic fuel tank placement. BUt still I love the Q and at least

the sunroof switch does not make me want to murder whoever

designed it like in the STS. Seriously, one of the most horrific

electronic annoyances of my life has been trying to close the

sunroof on the STS. The past four years that I've owned it I can

honestly say I almost had an aenurism over it about two dozen

times. You try to close it and it opens... you hold it down for 0.1

seconds too long adn it tilts instead of closing. :angry:

Woah... $6500?!?! :blink:

If it was an imported Japanese spec. 2dr hardtop wiht the

sleek fastback rear glass, 5-speed and in 100 point

condition I might pay half that and I'm obsessed with 510s.

Check out this super cool website... lots of Car ads from

the 1940s to the 1980s. Enjoy XP.

Actually it was some dork I saw pull in at FED-EX/Kinkos up

in Nashua, NH. He was just some random dude and it was

like 5 months ago. I just kept forgeting to post the photo

and found it today looking for photos of XP's 1977 Cutlass.

I was in too much of a hurry trying to get my client's paper-

work FedExed to talk to him. :P

You should trademark that term... "Pecker Sock"

is a lot more creative than Paris Hilton's "That's hot"

Remember my thread where I posted a photo of a violet KIA

and said how the deuchebag driving it cut me off real bad as

if she was in a hurry and then slowed down almost as if to

piss me off and nothing else?

Well, recently me, XP & my buddy Kevin were talking about

how Honda, VW & Toyota Camry/Avalon drivers tend to be

morons in higher percentages than othetr brands. One day

XP & I went on some roadtrip and got cut off like 7 times &

6 of them was by either a Camry, Avaon or some other

Toyota.

Well today I had to deal with three morons on the road, one

was driving an Accord and was paying too much attention to

the Yorkshire Terrier in his lap and kind fo forgettign to watch

the road, the other guy was a d!ck in a green 95/96 Camry

who apparently thought RED means GO and the third was a

b1tch in a CRV who cut me off last minute and I had to

swerve & jump on the breaks in the Q45.

So mext time you're in the Westford, Mass area watch out

for this dumb broad.

Oh yeah... we hit the 130 mph mark no question about it.

If that straightaway had been about anoher 2 miles long

we might have had a chance to hit 140, although I think

the car is drag limited at like 135. Suer felt like it anyway.

thats funny. you have any idea of what the reserve is? 6 days and going strong and its not met yet but even so id save your money on that pile. it looks so rusted just from the pictures that on the way home youd be able to stop the car fred flinstone style.

It looks in the pictures like at least the right rear floor has had water from some sort of leak. The trunk appears to have surface rust, but it may be solid. You can never tell unless you put the car on a lift or pull the carpet back.

Yes... the car's been in storage since our coutry's 200th

anniversary of existance (1976) so a "little" rust repair,

complete engine rebuild and a lot of other miscelaneous

restification is needed, but for a 1959 Buick it is in great

shape compared to many others that go through ebay.

I'm not a serious bidder, but now that I got my name

on the auction I could very well get a second chance

offer... and well, you guys know I'm crazy enough to

drag it home if money wasn't somehow an obsticle. :ph34r:

Well officer It said i was only going 85 not your projected 117? To much traffic to get it to touch the bottom and when it touches bottom GPS says im doing 132mph. I find it funny how a 185hp V8 2 1/2 ton car can go that fast while a 120hp 1 1/2 ton sport compact can only hit 96

:blink: Damn my leg looks extremly white and skinny in that reflection.

Sweet, in my old Fleetwood Brougham at about 105 mph

the needle dissapeared from sight altogeather, it would

be hidden behind the base fo the speedometer as it got

near parallel to the dash. (sideways)
