  1. maybe he's refering to the 3.6 in the lax... new for '07, 10 less horses to go along w/ the weaker 3.8L... ..... i'm joking .. but still that prolly wouldn't surprise some people.
  2. pretty sure all my family's 4 cars are between 100k - 150k marks, 99 monte~ 134k 99 ga, over 100k somewhere, (never drive it), 91 safari xt very close to 150K prolly (only running, original vehicle family bought new), 95 c1500, over 130K positive,
  3. 500hp out of the 2.0L turbo..... only slightly surprised....so how much is of that could be street legal? lol
  4. imo, i think the lip spoiler gave the car a nice, slightly sporty egde to it.
  5. the I-5 gained 20 hp and 20 ft lbs, about
  6. other than the gmt900s , and the x-overs, that's at least nice that gm put AFM on the impala's 3.9L. have to wait and see if it's more than just 1mpg useful.
  7. don't want to insult you... air cleaner, just make sure it's not cheap parts first.
  8. fuel economy? but i thought the 4.8 was coming around w/ afm too...? it's prolly a great engine (no personal exp) oh well we'll see how it turns out. side note... does that mean a ~8.4L V12 would fit in then?
  9. I like the second second wheel design...
  10. is that axle ratio the lower than what they used to make?... 2.48 v 2.7.... gas milage reasons or something else?
  11. oh , but it was beast, it could take punishment. lol
  12. my old 83 buick regal wagon, the only other car i've had. buick v6, 3speed, just fun to drive because it was so unique, even though it was a pretty clumsy car. lol. i'd put a turbo on it or put a v8 in it w/ a 4 speed at least... that'd be fun
  13. that commercial is hilarious, isn't there one more like that...? if only more commercials were like this
  14. as in a bleep maker or a black strip generator j/j around on your spelling what's up with the 3 parts in the bumper that look like you could pop them out with a screwdriver?
  15. are they using a new V6 in the 900?......based on the 3.9L maybe? anyone know?
  16. anyone notice this on that site? "OTHER STORIES ABOUT THIS AUTOMAKER: >> 2006 Scion xB >> 2006 Buick Lucerne" this is horrible even if it's just an obvious mistake on an easilly fixable link
  17. well nothing against it, but you are in NJ right? must have at least a slight accent...?
  18. i have a 99 ls (3.1l), shift points seem to be 40, 80, estimating 120 and if it could for the red line- top out at 160. curious what the ss's shift speeds are and cruising speed/rpm? at about 75 mine's turning about 2.4k -2.5k around my town i can get 19-20 mpg taking it easy(always less than 3k, more like <2.4k, you keep track of that? having that kind of power is great to catch your friends of guard with i bet edit spelling
  19. i do know some people can make what they imagine much easier than others, (no offense) but i get a slight "beetle sedan" feel from yours, maybe it's just the hood poportions to the cabin roundness, and how the rear doors round off so quickly. on the good side it does have more of an individual look to it, like NOS's, for me his looks too much like a camaro/muscle car for me, it can have some of that , but i would think it needs to look more refined than that... eh. just my opinion ( no offense NOS)
  20. mmaybe the back acts as a kneeler so you can ask god forgiveness for making the thing....or your prayers to toyota ( for the real scion fans)
  21. MRDETROITMETAL, the front reminds me of a caprice for some reason i agree with Yjacket too
  22. i agree if it was echo- tech it should be spelled echotec
  23. • 9 GB Media Storage infinity is doing that on a model... hm...how will the data get on there?... ripping cds? oh no!! it was bound to happen sony and pioneer tried it about 4-5 years ago we'll see how it looks with the rest of the interior...
  24. to my post about this, forgot about the olds 3.5 (shortstar) and the 3.4 Dohc also as being short livedto paolino, i'm just guessing, but it looks like the only reason gm's keeping it in there is for the manual opt. unless it's going to be significantly cheaper than the 3.6 gtp. but we'll see how a gxp comes out and the public's (and media) response to the 3.6 put in there (gtp).
