How I'm seeing things
Challenger Magnum (get an `08 and you've got yourself a rare car)

Inside the 2010 Camaro SS
Interior styling is subjective, but I'd much rather have an interior that feels special like the Camaro's or even the Mustang's than the Challenger's which looks like it came from any other Chrysler product...it doesn't feel special.

Inside the 2010 Camaro SS
Amazing how GM fans of all people piss and moan when GM doesn't give you guys enough performance cars /RWD/V8/manual/coupe/etc. and then piss and moan some more when they give you a really good one.

Vtec kickin' in yo
It's one of the reasons why I like the Accord coupe, teh headlights and tail lights are mounted flush.

2010 Toyota 4Runner at the Georgian College Autoshow
I think it looks better with the trim blacked out VS body color like the one on IL is. Interior looks pretty good. Looks like it was inspired by Ford's tough, blocky designs for their truck/SUV interiors. The only thing I can't stand about it is those protruding light lenses. Besides that it looks fine.

Meh, I wish we got the Scirocco.

Number plate recognition police cars deployed in SA
This can be very useful for tracking down cars that are stolen, and unregistered vehicles as well as speeders (I'm talking like 20 over the limit not 5 over though), and the like. Odds are if a person is driving around in an unregistered car they aren't a model driver or citizen. There so many people on the road who should not be on teh road. If anything we make driver's license testing much harder and do not just once, but every 5 years or so. Hell, I think your ability to be allowed to operate a vehicle should be brought into question if you have been cited many times for DUI, excessive speeding, running lights, and being faulted for lots of accidents. I'd love to get stupid people off the road and make driving safer for those of us who have a brain.

Taillight tinting
Some members on LHF do it to their tail lights, comes out really nice. I like it when the tint doesn't wipe out the detail (not too dark). Although I think I prefer them on darker colored cars. These were done by the owner(s): If you're curious about how they did it the thread i located here: http://www.lhforums.net/forums/showthread....t=tinted+lights

Worst interior memories
The Fusion is a great car, however I'm smitten by both the exterior and especially the interior of the Taurus.

Poor sleeping habits
I pulled all nighters in college a few times, especially toward the end.

Worst interior memories
Well I know the Civic still has a low cowl, I'm sure there are some other cars that do.

Poor sleeping habits
The problem is isually down to one night I don't go to bed at the time I should (I find something that keeps me interested and before you know it its past 12am). , and then the rest of sleeping habit gets messed up until I get to sleep at the right time. This happened Sunday night and I just haven't got myself back into the right habit. Wednesday I actually got to bed at the proper time, however about half an hour later I started coughing and had a coughing fit, which lasted for like an hour. By the time it was finally over I fell right asleep, but it was also at least 1am. Damn dust allergies.

WHY??
Indeed. The old folks who the only thing hip about them is their replacement love the xB.

Little girl has all the luck in the world
It wasn't Chuck Norris. If it had been he would have just roundhouse kicked the Toyota away from the girl before it even hit the polls.

Dodge Spirit - $350 (Rochester, NH)
Just looking at cheap cars when I came across this. http://nh.craigslist.org/cto/1390636264.html This is all well and fine. The "features" list is kind of funny, but the best bit is this at the end: I am assuming the fuel problem is preventing the battery from getting fuel correctly. I actually laughed out loud. I mean I know not everyone is a car person or a mechanic but it just sounded funny. I dunno...I need to get to sleep.

Nothing wrong with that, although I'd still get a Camaro...but then I really want one.

Quick Test: 2008 Saturn Astra XE
IIRC there was very little changes to the Astra when it was brought over here. Just US spec bumpers.

Poor sleeping habits
If it tires you out that's not strange at all. If I can find something to do to get me tired I'll fall asleep within minutes. It's just being tired at the right time...10pm instead of 5pm or something.

Poor sleeping habits
We have very basic cable so there's nothing good on. I usually watch an episode of TG or something on the computer before bed but that doesn't usually get me sleepy. If we got the weather channel I would put that on and watch it. Nothing mellows you out like the forecast.

Side note and history question
Sequential rear turn signals are cool.

Poor sleeping habits
Yeah my sleep habits are irregular as well. I'm hoping after a few weeks I'll fall into a pattern. The problem that because I like to stay up, I do so on the weekend and then try to go to bed early Sunday, but since I was up till 3am and slep until like noon that doesn't work out. Other problem, which I had all week this week, is that when I got home I was tired, but didn't want tog o to bed then and end up waking up in the middle of the night...like right now. However by the time 10 or 11 rolls around I'm wide awake and it takes a while for me to go to sleep because I'm awake. The worst thing is when you lay down to go to sleep and start thinking about random things but can't shut your mind off.

Poor sleeping habits
Since I started working I've been trying to get to bed a decent time so I can get 7-8 hours of sleep, be up at 6:30 so I can be well rested and ready for work at 8. That means going to bed at 10 or 11. Well it's 12:38am right now so you can see where this is going. Last week I did pretty well. However by nature I'm a night owl, and unfortunately I haven't been able to get to sleep this week until 1 or 2am. Well it finally caught with me and I fell asleep as soon as I got him untl 10:30. So Now I've had about 6 hours of sleep and I'm awake again. meh... What are your sleeping habits like?

I will not crucify you for your typos. I mean, I know I never make them or anything, but we can't all be perfect.
