  1. You asked to test its limit, so moving fast is testing for agility, so as far as agility goes it does not pass in flying colors. Nope, I am trying to post on other threads too, and it is giving the same message. The search is fantastically fast though. I hope it is not hanging the server.
  2. $h!-san Titan was also the truck of the year. What did it achieve?
  3. I am seeing two messages repeatedly: "Sorry, you do not have permission to reply to that topic" "Board Administrator has put Flood Control" Never knew soft engineers designed Dams and Levies.
  4. Maserati Quattroporte with Platinum Silver Color.
  5. No. They MUST be GOOD at it if they are going to stay here. If they want rights of having the test taken in their languages, go back to their country and take one in their own driver licenses offices. I am foreigner and English is NOT my first language.
  6. If only the average customer was as industrious and as intelligent as you are.
  7. Acting like a post whore! Ahhhhhhhhh. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Ohhhhhhhhhh. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSss. DO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!! Alright where are my $500 bucks you limp dick.
  8. I hope none of the Equinox is shared with the Vue. Because it will end up being an overweight Koreo-German pig. The current Equinox is not a bad platform, just tweak it, upgrade the interior and exterior it will be a good vehicle.
  9. No post whores replying yet?
  10. Why don't you place a link on the front page saying "Donate" for a while? I think it would be easier.
  11. Blu, I think you can get $1500 rebate till the end of the year. $1000 for loyalty (GM car owner) and another $500 bonus cash for a discount of $3000 or 60 month 0% apr.
  12. What business Caddy is getting into? Making motherboards and computer chasis?

    New 400 hp AMC Eagle

    True, but the X6 will be probably a sportier version than mommy mobile.
  14. Add to it the crops of the world and big dams.
  15. You are 18 posts too late :AH-HA_wink:

    New 400 hp AMC Eagle

    No manual transmission? That is not what I expected from a Beemer.
  17. To me it is a sedan. At least Merc does a better job of sleeker styling. The VW is bland.
  18. With the current rebates, he can get it for around $16,500. Mr. Blu, I know two people who own the Balt. And I am thinking of buying one to save my gas bills. One of the person has two balts, an automatic LS sedan (her husband's) and stick LS coupe (hers). She says she loves the cars. Her previous ride was a XB (the box). She says the manual balt gives her about 28 mpg combined cycle driving. She has had absolutely no problems with her. She drives a lot (25k annually). The other person is a friend who owns a SS SC. A sweet ride. I love the SS SC, but the fuel economy numbers turned me down. But with the Turbo, which is as efficient as the 2.4L that may be on my shopping list come spring 2008. 2.2 is a great engine. 2.4 can really make you feel different. The seats have good lumbar support, and the suspension is taut but not too firm. Old EPA numbers for both the engines were same. I have surpassed old EPA numbers in all three of my cars, so I do not see why you cannot, if you drive carefully. I drove the Saturn Astra at the drive, and although a fun car, the first gear according to me was too long, which reduced the fun in it. It clearly showed although Astra has great dynamics, the lack of powerful engine and relatively heavy mass has made the gears more inclined to fuel economy rather than performance. Fit and finish are really good. The Golf is fun. Although it can be a gas hog. I have a colleague who owned a red 2.5 (150hp) for 9 months and is currently owning a red GTI (both 2-doors). He has 90% highway drive on a speed limit of 70mph. He said that his 2.5 returned with 28 mpg if babied, and used to be down on to 26-27 when rushing. The GTI loses another mile or two. As for the mini, it is a great car. Although pricey, it is quirky and fun. If you really want fun and speed, get a low miles 1997-1999 C5, which you can probably get for around 20k. As an ex owner of a C5 Z06, I can definitely tell you that the close-eyed lady can give you 23 mpg city, if you use the 1-4 shift and then put it in 6th. Plus if a ricer comes at a stop light besides you, he will not dare to smoke his tires when he sees you.

    VOTE for GM

    I agree with you. It just feels like although GM is concentrating hard to cover details, there are yet small chinks in armor that remain. Till that is bridged, we may see "but" in GM's opposition.

    What does Type-S have to call it the tech car of the year? It is the 3d navigation which is relativeley easy to use, and the industry first Tivo style radio, along with an excellent sound system that can make CTS a competitor.
  21. How would I know? Go ask those tuners that put more than 1000rwhp with twin turbos in the corvettes. Have you done scientific market research to find what is the market size for twin turbo pushrods to know no one will buy them? Again the */litre is a myth, what does that ratio signify? To an automobile engineer nothing. What has STS-V loosing value to do with pushrods?
  22. Put a twin turbo in the pushrod and that number will be 644 lb-ft.
  23. Hey Bowtie_dude, sorry to hear that. I think you should call the insurance co. especially if she is weaseling out. I hope you get the car fixed ASAP. Hey BTW I will be in Lexington next Friday. If you do not have any plans would like to meet? I will look forward to meet you.
  24. Will still be a ride.
