WANT
My brother doesn't want it. Do you guys actually read posts all the way through? His money not mine. If I had a grand to spare (or a grand period) I'd go take a look for myself. Oh well, someday.

It was bound to happen: K Car Club springs up
Not really. The K-cars are being recognized because they are what saved Chrysler, and the platform was flexible enough to underpin man different models. It was also reliable, something rare of that period. Naturally they'll never be as cool or lusted after like `59 Imperial or a `71 Hemi `Cuda, but some people want to preserve some of them for different reasons than that. Hyundais from the 80's-90's, will never be remembered as anything more than cheap, ugly, unreliable, disposable crap.

Stalling Problems
Well after nearly a week of driving it around problem free, it's fairly safe at this point to say it was the crankshaft sensor. I'm happy, I can drive my car again worry free.

2010 Maxima Diesel may be manual-only
Bitch bitch bitch. I drive a manual everyday to and from work through rush hour traffic, and there is always stop and go sections at least twice a day. I manage just fine. You guys are wusses.

Toyota gets attacked for worker rights abuses
The top is a tough place to be. Just ask Toyota, which is now facing charges of worker right abuses, including the use of sweat shops and human trafficking. As we've reported before, Japan even has a word for being overworked to death: karoshi. Toyota plants are not immune to this stress-related disease, as workers at its plants have indeed suffered death due to working too hard. These facts have caught the attention of The National Labor Committee, which has an entire report worked up that alleges Toyota over-works and under-pays its Japanese employees and has ties to various unsavory Dictators. It's also been well established that Toyota does not want its American workforce unionized. The report is being directly targeted at Prius-driving celebrities who see Toyota as the shining green beacon in a world of pollution-spewing car companies. Whether or not this report has all its facts straight, if famous Toyota supporters in Hollywood react to these allegations, Toyota could indeed have a public relations disaster on its hands.

Somone on Autoblog asked the very same, the response was too funny not to post

It was bound to happen: K Car Club springs up
Unloved as they are, let's give Chrysler's K Car its due. Thirty years ago, the K represented a sea change in the Pentastar lineup. Not only did the K and its derivatives return Chrysler to the black, the architecture proved versatile enough to underpin basically the entire lineup, from minivans to LeBarons to turbocharged Daytonas. Southern California now has an official K Car club – fitting, as that's likely the only place you could find an early '80s Chrysler without lots of rust. Club membership is open to the entire swath of cars that share this similar architecture, known as the "EEK" models, so you won't get kicked out for showing up in a Caravelle instead of an Aries. Now's the time to hunt one of these cars down if you're looking for a cheap, enjoyable way to get into the hobby. They're available for a song, don't yet command any respect (perhaps they never will), yet the K Car is edging its way toward official classic status regardless of what some traditionalists might argue. The K Cars are nearly classic, they're historic and significant and worth saving. The hobby must live on after all the boomers are buried in their Tri-Fives, and a Reliant would be a great way to show an interested kid the basics. Autoblog

New Saab 9-4X Spyshots
Pretty much. I like it. However, what they need is cars, especially these times of high fuel prices.

I've Been Thinking
2 jobs > 1 if you can handle the load. I work my primary full-time job, I kept my crappy pizza job for 6 hours on sundays, just for extra cash (it's enough to pay for a week's worth of gas and lunches) and I do s ide job working on a website for my former internship. You should get a GED but also strongly consider looking into college of some sort. a GED or high school diploma is pretty much worthless. It's when you have an actual degree that you can find decent jobs, and much more quickly. I never took online classes, so I can't say how they are. I don't work out nearly enough, so I got nothin'

I need a Doubleshot and an AMP or something similar to at least keep me awake, but I never get wired. Sobe Essentials are good stuff.

Spied: 2010 Acura NSX (June 2008)
I'm liking the overall shape so far, although for an FR layout ith has kind of a long font overhnag. Also, the stacked exhausts are cool, but I hope unlike the poser IS-F they're real.

That's a current generation GS...- It's NEW new car time...perhaps
Another good reason to keep the Caddy...you have your sexy, small, modern, relatively fuel efficient Kappa for more days, and when you need to haul peopel or stuff you've got the Cadillac.- PATIENCE REQUIRED
