  1. She looks mighty clean, I like that shade of blue. Congrats!
  2. Historically it has been Chrysler that faces a Challenge, even certain dead, head on with new, groundbreaking product. That of course was before being anally raped. Today it's Ford that seems to actually be rising to the Challenge, and we can see results of this new mindset with real results, namely the Fiesta and next Taurus. Not only that but they are actually listening (bring the hatch Fiesta to the US after all). Time will tell in the end, but I do hope all 3 of them find the courage, innovation, and strength of leadership to not only survive but make a comeback, and prove again to the world we are the best at building desirable cars.
  3. Yes, because Chargers Magnums, 300C's (especially midgrade and up), Camaros, G8's, Jags, Hardtop Mercedes, the list could go on, are all souless appliances that are by this logic, no better than a Camry....which is blasphemy to even think.
  4. Quick question: how is the Malibu's interior ugly or complex? Styling is subjective., so I can give you that, although I personally dislike the Aura's interior for several aesthetic reasons, but as far as complex goes the major controls, if not all of the controls, are shared. As for dealbreakers... If it's a performance car, manual must be an option. I may or may not get it as a manual of say I have one as a manual already. It must be fun to drive if it's a car, but I don't expect a minivan to handle like a BMW for example. It must have a nice interior. It must have modern conveniences if it's new. The Nav is a little iffy, as I prefer it, but I could make an exception for a car I really like (G8, Camaro). I like technology so there. No Cancerous headlights or tail lights, the Solstice being the only possible exception, but I like the sky better anyway.
  5. As other's have said, all you need is a little imagination Camino. Even if you you have to buy auto, with your skills you could easily swap it out for a 6-speed out of a wrecked G8 GXP. Then you can still buy a new one, and get what you want. :AH-HA_wink:
  6. I've heard that too. Also I coast all the time when there's no need to keep it in gear (coming to a stop, going down hill). Even before stupidly high gas prices...I just didn't feel like downshifting.
  7. Honestly, how stupid to do you have to be? Instead of ruining your car, go plop down the 20 bucks for a truck rental.
  8. Another Viper GTS, this one was a deep, deep purple.
  9. Well when you consider how badly Daimler f@#ked the company up, of course it had to be sold at a loss. And of course, don't forget they aren't the only company with gas hogging trucks, but Toyota wants you to believe they are 110% green baby.
  10. Very nicely done dde. The "Do not Hump" one is awesome, but the rest are awesome because of the nice lighting and texture.
  11. I always know the limit, and have never run out of gas. Interestingly, I just filled up yesterday
  12. Those are all great and tasteful mods, and since your stock headlights are amazingly in good shape still you can sell them to help make up the difference.
  13. Welcome to 2 months ago.
  14. ZOMG BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111111111111111111111111111111111111
  15. I'd love to meet the guy.
  16. 1973-74 Plymouth Satellite Sebring
  17. Nice ride BV! She' looks very clean and in great shape for the year!
  18. My family, at least on my dad's side, has owned with rare exception Mopars for decades. My immediate family has owned Mopars exclusively since I was born. I remember in addition to the Cudas we had a Plymouth Satellite Sebring and a Dodge Aspen. I remember the Sebring was white with a yellow door. It sat the entire time I remember it until it was junked because of rotting. The Aspen, which, $h!ty as they were, I loved as a kid, was green and nicknamed th "Green Bomber". It had rust issues too although my dad patched them up. We had that until I was 5 or so, it was sold off and later ended up an accessory to a robbery. I dunno what happened to it after that. Someone tried to brake into it once, although they cut themselves up on the steering column (blood on it the next morning). I loved that car, when we got rid of it it was the first time I was sad to see a car go, and to this day I get sad when we get rid of one. Our family owned basically Dodge or Plymouth, the poor Town and Country we've only had a little while was the first Chrysler I remember us having. We've had all kinds of Mopars...a Reliant, an Aries wagon, 2 Shadows, the Caravan, a Spirit, and now the Intrepid. My brother's first car will almost certainly be a Mopar, and if we have to replace the van it'll probably be another Mopar. So I've got Mopar in my blood. However, it's not just the family tradition that makes me such a diehard fan. Chrysler has always zigged where others zagged. They pioneered so much, and created designs that not only made the competition looked dated, but set the standard for others to follow and play catchup. Look no further than the LH series to see this, and more recently the LX cars which brought back the large, affordable RWD sedan. I like that, and our cars have been good to us for the most part. I love my Intrepid. Sure, ether designs aren't always a home run, but then the same can be said for any company.
  19. Yup, and you know what that means: You guys are f@#kED.
  20. You can tell by the overall design and layout of the page that it's not professional.
  21. 3 Dodge Journeys, a white SE, silver SXT, and blue SXT. I have to say they look really sharp in person and on the road, particularly that blue one. Silver Pontiac Solstice GXP Red w/ white racing stripes Dodge Viper GTS
  22. That sucks really bad for the owners who just bought it.
  23. The exterior is growing on me, I think in person it will look better. The interior is slick. I just wish it had a manual. C'mon Nissan, this is supposed to be s ports sedan, a manual should at least be on the option list (it is for the Altima).
