  1. Hence the black and white picture. It is from a village on a Greek island. @David mentioned living in thee woods. Im a city slicker so I dont like that lifestyle. However, I could give Greek island village a try. I have done it couple of months at a time when I was younger on vacay. I could eventually return to that kind of life IF it was like how my mom grew up. Which is not. Yeah, her growing up in that kind of poverty did suck and hence why many Greeks came over to North America, but her life had advantages that in 2022 we will NEVER see again. Clean air. Fresh fruit directly on the tree. etc.
  2. I posted that particular pic because of the contrast between the Freedom Tower, the surrounding buildings, the water and the cars. Not the brand of car, but the automobiles themselves. It was a nice picture to share. And like I said, the Freedom Tower on the day that I posted it was on the 12th. German cars have their place, obviously, but German cars are not my style either. Had I lived in Greece, a German car would probably be in my style to own and drive.
  3. Found this online somewhere I made up my mind. I like this version of Mustang the most but that also means that I like this latest gen Mustang. Track version. I like, really like the rear this way. I aint talking about the rear spoiler, although it does enhance the rear for the better for me. I guess its the additional 2 exhaust pipes that does it. Not too mention the fact that they are bigger which I adore! Dark Horse its called. Cool logo. To get on the Mopar Hellcat/Demon graphic icon bandwagon. Lets all be honest though. No pony car comes close to Firebird's/Trans Am's phoenix. Not the Hellcat. Not the Demon. Not the Dark Horse. Well maybe the Hellcat. And the Cobra I just felt the theme from Rocky would be epic to close out my thoughts...
  4. I gotta sit on this look for awhile. I dont know how I feel about it. Its butch. The face is very butch. Butch is usually good for muscle cars. I guess I got used to the more softer approach that Ford done with the Mustang since 2005. I honesty dont know how I feel. I kinda like it? Maybe? I dont like the rear. But I dont know how that makes me feel about it on this final V8 car that is the Mustang. Maybe I also like it? I dont like the TV screen dash, that is for sure. Hate it even. But knowing that the Coyote gets a very big boost in horses and in torques and the way it sounds, I could live with the TV screen dash.
  5. I think Ive seen this pic elsewhere on this site. Could be that somebody else posted it somewhere. Anyway, I came across it again and I needed to praise it again
  6. Ran out? Anyway... Those poor bastards. This is fun of talking about whataboutisms... I got my own... What about the Hellcat that outran the cops but ran out of gas? https://www.motorious.com/articles/news/hellcat-outruns-the-cops/ Not once, but twice... The article above happened in Michigan. The following video clip happened in Houston The baddies were forced to ditch the thirsty Kitty. At least the minors were able to push theirs to an outlet... Maybe instead of whining about it, doncha think its actually time to make the electrical infrastructure ready? What resource is this? Your tele-evangelical way of cryptic talk of being anti-EV aint working. It never did. But you go back at it bruh!
  7. LOL Im not invested in the Royals to give you an answer back. Oh....I do have rebuttals, but I dont give a shyte about them. I aint wasting my time for them. My country wants to make a national holiday to mourn the Queen's death on her burial to which I BEG that we dont have to. (Yeah....Id rather go to work, not sell a single french fry and lose money on that day than be forced to celebrate and mourn a royal.) The government wants all the Provinces to agree to that though. Thank the Lord I happen to live in Quebec and it wont matter if English Canada votes yes to a national mourn/holiday as Quebec doesnt give a shyte about British Royalty. It didnt have to be done better. It just had to be done. And be done quickly. And it was done quickly despite all the possible entities being involved that had their own agendas. And Im happy the Freedom Tower itself and the other WTC buildings didnt have ANY resemblance of remembering or commemorating the fallen Twin Towers like the first proposals. Im glad the Freedom Tower is a big block of pure American Skyscraper looking tall and solid like a big American athlete/boxer with its chest puffed up saying to all that were involved in those terrorist attacks, phoque you, I was down, but know Im up and stronger than before. And Im here to represent Liberty and Freedom that much louder! WTC 2 is yet to be decided upon and obviously built. But there is a skyscraper void in the skyline. I cant wait for it to rise up! The memorial is great that a building(s) built to remind us that twin towers once stood there would keep the skyline as a permanent visual scar and not propel New Yorkers and all Americans to stand proud and strong. Only to always see a scar and continue to weep. The triangular facets are very imposing and the sunlight highlights them when the rays hit them. Just my opinion. BTW, it took a decade plus, as I have read in some sources, before anybody and especially New Yorkers to warm up to the Twin Towers.
  8. Questionable father is more of a monarch thing. Failure as a husband that he eventually cheated on his wife would also be a monarchy thing. His then girlfriend Camilla was not princessy like. She didnt exude virgin vibes. Diana was just 19 when they got married. He was 32. Both were forced upon each other for monarchy image reasons. When you analyze it a tad deeper, Diana was just 16 when she met her prince. How phoqued up is that? They got married in 1981. That would be AD. Not BC. I dunno about you, but my non-royal Greek a$$ has higher standards for my daughter than for me to ship her off without an education and I dont care if that person is 'royalty' almost twice her age. As we eventually saw from both, money does not bring happiness. I dont really care for any royalty, much less for the British one, but I dont fault King Charles III for his failed marriage to Diana. I blame the hypocritical institution that is the British monarchy. Not that I care all that much.
  9. The Queen is dead. Long live the King! (as they say) Maybe now, with a new monarch, but Im not holding m breath, the Parthenon Marbles will be returned back to Athens where they rightfully belong. If not, phoque him too!!!
  10. Yeah, the 4 door A-Body leaves much to be desired.
  11. courtesy of @David Thanx for posting this awesome restomod/pro touring Trans Am
  12. Buick exterior stylists also need to get with the mother$%&$^& program or get the $%#% out
  13. For this hoping to raise 60-85 billion Euros for developing more of this
  14. Not as clear as you say it is. But yeah, the focus from GM and Buick has been China for awhile now. Yes they are. But I am curious to know why you say it like this Because those buyout offers are not as how you insinuate they are... You know, to focus on China. Because those buyouts are for those Buick dealerships that do not want to go forward with the all electric Buick portfolio in the very near future. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/09/02/gm-offers-to-buy-out-buick-dealers-that-dont-want-to-invest-in-evs.html https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a41075272/buick-buyout-dealers-ev-sales/
  15. Back to the Buick... Its a gas powered thing. A CVT transmission, 1.5 liter turbo 4. It looks like any other ho-hum CUV.
  16. Just a higher belt-line, higher stance, 4 door Corrado.
