Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
I'm just not as good as him. *sigh*

That NOS Guy...
sNOSage is alive?! I thought you died in a freak Flint shooting or something. Bitch, please.

Those exhaust tips are the Gallardo were huge. I don't think there was any satisfying it.

Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
Tell me about. Haha... It's a bit further than 250 miles. It's actually a long story. To keep it short, I unexpectedly had to drop someone off in central Indiana (don't ask, for the sake of my sanity) and I had done so without getting any sleep previous to the trip. By the time I was on my way back, I was completely exhausted and Chris let me crash at his place, which wasn't too big of a detour from where I was at the time. After I had gotten sleep and whatnot, the next day we went out to explore some places and went to all those dealerships. Meanwhile, my nice new camera was left at home due to not needing to take it along to drop this person off. A pity, I know. I plan on driving over again since it's not as demanding of a drive as I thought it was. Chris and I will make sure to make another run to all those places just for pictures.

Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
Nah. I wasn't expecting to be in Detroit, let alone to visit those dealerships, so I had left my camera at home. It was a spur of the moment thing. I had a situation where I had to drive to Indiana and back and needed a place to crash for night. Next time, when I actually plan a trip to Detroit, I'll have to visit everyone from over yonder.

The Official MPG Thread
Last three tanks: 29.2, 29.4, and 29.1. And ironically, the highest mileage was achieved driving the fastest with most use of the gas pedal. How that can be, I have no idea.

Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
Chris and I met up finally (sort of unexpectedly, at that) and we romped around the Detroit area to all the sweet exotic dealerships. Alot of the cars, I wasn't expecting to be there. Who walks into a Maserati dealership to find an Alfa 8C sitting in the showroom. I never expected to see a Veyron... ever, either. Such beautiful cars. And the exhaust note of that Lambo LP560 is to die for. I think I could settle for one to replace the Jetta.
-
How old is YOUR car in people years?
The Jetta is about 40 years old having just rolled over 81k.

Starting off 2009 With An Automotive Bang
I had quite the day, today. I gawked over many vehicles I didn't think I would have the chance to look at. I even got to start up an LP560. Talk about an exhaust note. It's pretty much the equivalent to automotive heaven. Here's a minor list of all my nifty sights. Bugatti Veyron Alfa Romeo 8C Alfa Romeo Spyder Alfa Romeo 164 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Lamborghini Gallardo LP560 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera Lamborghini Countach Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano Ferrari 612 Scaglietti Ferrari 430 Scuderia Ferrari 360 Modena Ferrari F355 Ferrari 550 Maranello Ferrari 308 Ferrari F1 Racer Maserati GT Maserati Merak Maserati Quattroporte Porsche 911 Carerra Porsche Cayman Porsche 968 Porsche 944 Racer Porsche 911 (964) Lotus Exige S Lotus Europa Lotus Elan Lotus Esprit Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed Bentley Continental GT Speed Jaguar XF Jaguar XJR Jaguar XKR Jaguar E-type Jaguar XK140 BMW M3 BMW M5 BMW X6 BMW M1 Mini Cooper (original) Audi TT-S Audi A5 Caterham Super-7 Morris Minor Traveller Quite the list, eh?

Finally, Cutlass Pics
Haha, well, it's like a rodent we can't get rid of. It was sitting in our yard with $500 written very largely on the windshield for 6 months. It's currently in the garage, as it no longer wants to start for whatever reason(s). I bet the carburetor finally gave up on it. I'd really like it to go to someone who has the ability to fix it up and keep it running, but alas, no one seems to be interested. Even those on here who swore up and down about it were all talk. Bitches.

Europe's fastest street-legal car is... a 252 MPH Pontiac Trans-Am?!
Always been a fan of 3rd gen. F-bodies, especially Trans Ams. Great cars. Like the Fiero, I look forward to having one in my driveway some day.

Finally, Cutlass Pics
You can have an '84 parts car. *nods*

Pictures!
Yes, but don't ask me to do anything else with it.

Edsel and Why It Failed
I actually don't think the styling is that terrible. Sure, it's not going to win any beauty pageants, but I can see good qualities in the design.

'Rock Band'
I'm just discovering the virtues of Guitar Hero with both PS2 and the Wii. I'm not terribly good with timing and my pinky doesn't cooperate, so it's interesting when I play. In contrast. a friend of mine can play on hard and hit nearly every note, song difficulty permitting. 'Hot for Teacher' is insane on medium, let alone hard or expert. Far beyond my skill level. Haven't played Rock Band, though.

Finally, a good camera!
Great minds think alike.

Pictures!
Random, but I can scratch inbetween my shoulder blades, so... bitch, please.

New Camera = Random Pictures
Yes, Harley's getting old. I believe he's going on 8 and the other hyper dogs have probably aged him a little more than is natural. Thanks. It could be something I want to do. Probably moreso than automotive design. You've got me. It's my dad's.

GM @ NAIAS '09: 2010 Chevy Equinox
Cory Wolfe replied to Chris_Doane's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Mmmm... That's pretty nice looking. Certainly a big improvement.

What does your Desktop look like?
I had a minor monitor upgrade....

New Camera = Random Pictures
With the purchase of my new Canon Powershot SX10 IS, of course I had to take some test photos. I haven't really had the chance to take any serious, directly motivated shots with it yet, however. Just random ones seeing what it can do. I know Dodgefan wanted to atleast see some of these. Me and my camera: Random inside/outdoor, day/night, sharply focused/landscape... and my two Boxers. Some shots using the Macro setting:

So, basically, anything and everything that didn't fit their perfect automotive mold was picked? - 50 worst cars ever
