A few shots from the race shop
I've seen that spare tire treatment somewhere before... Just can't think of where and what name attaches to the car.

I do like rare cars... and I am rather colorfully puketastic, myself.

Cyclone, Breeze, Scirocco?
I've seen two previous gen. Audi A6's in the past week. I think I'm being spoken to. Those are sweet cars.

Yes, they are one of the rarest VW's ever made according to VWvortex.

Well now... This is quite the deal on a low mileage, 5spd Harlequin. Clicky

All I can say is that I've been unimpressed with each stock system I've had. I haven't heard many at all that impressed me, stock or aftermarket. -The Millenia's Bose was probably the best thus far, but still not what I'd call great. -The GAGT had aftermarket speakers, but they were terrible. -The Jetta's stock system wasn't too bad, but lacked bass, with and without my Clarion reciever. -The Cutlass's isn't even worth mentioning.

Possibilities... though I'd like to get back to driving a stick. I'm getting tired of autos and both of those limit me to such. I guess it depends on what I find.

Comparison Test: 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 3.8 vs. 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe
I've said it before, this car is awesome, especially coming from Hyundai.

That's basically what I've been thinking since the start. Figure I'd throw that idea out there, though. After finding an MK3 that I wanted and seeing it sell because my situation has be waiting... I haven't found any other MK3's that I like as much. It wasn't the black GLX either. Currently looking into a 97 Audi A4 1.8T with a 5spd. Otherwise, I'm not sure what I want right now.

2009 Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe Follow-Up Test and Video
It looks very good in that color. I could care less about cargo space with those looks.

I have a new consideration. After doing my taxes, I got back alot more than expected, so I currently have a good $1400 in the bank. Fixing up the Millenia wasn't feasible at first, but it may be a possibility now. This all depends on how expensive of a fix the misfire would be. If that is taken care of, the rest can be done easily enough. As mentioned, beyond the misfire, it needs tires, front brakes, an axle, a strut link, a battery, and most likely fluid changes. I still don't know if it'll really be worth it. However, I did always want to fix it up and this is an opportunity to do so. *shrugs*

Friend of Mine is Looking For A Car
Neon is out. Transmission is leaking. Catera and Volvo are out, as well due to being slighty more than he wants to spend. Currently in the running are two Chrysler 300M's (one of which I wouldn't mind owning myself), two PT Cruisers, a previous gen. Sonata, and a few random others.

I dont like your ringtone
I only have two ringtones right now, one for calls, and one for texts. A string quartet version of SOAD's 'Lonely Day' and Danzig's 'Mother'.

Friend of Mine is Looking For A Car
So, basically, the Catera would not be a smart purchase decision. We didn't get a chance to check it out today, but we will tomorrow. I want to atleast get a test drive out of it. Test drove the Volvo. Turns out its an '00 with about 70k. It ran pretty good. Also test drove a bright yellow 2nd gen Neon SXT and a PT Cruiser. He liked those two the most and the Neon worked the best financially out all of them. It ran well, didn't seem to have any issues besides non-working foglights. The Cruiser ran alright, but had higher mileage than he would have liked and was at a dealership he's not a big fan of. It doesn't help that theyre trying to screw him on trade in.

Friend of Mine is Looking For A Car
My (non-car-guy) friend is looking for something to replace his 2002 Hyundai Accent. This is the friend of whom asked me to sell his 70s Ford LTD for him. Basically, he feels his car is way too small and way too basic, which is quite understandable. It is a lowly Accent, afterall. He also had to cough up $1k when the timing belt snapped and bent some valves at the end of last year. Otherwise, it's been a relatively good car to him. He's looking to move up into something thats more liveable and will be reliable. One of his main critera is that he doesn't want to drive something that everyone has. My point of posting is... We came across a 2001 Cadillac Catera with only 35k miles and they're asking $6k for it. I've heard both good things and bad things about these cars regarding reliability, but I've never paid too much attention as to what the case was. How reliable would one of these be? Also, what sort of fuel mileage will he be looking at? The latter question is guaranteed to have an answer that's considerably lower than what his Accent gets, regardless. I told him I would guess it to be around 20-25. Looking at it, it's a very nice car. I saw not one blemish anywhere. Its in excellent condition with low miles, as mentioned. We have not yet had a chance to test drive it as they weren't open yesterday, but we may do so today after I go to work. We also looked over a Volvo S40 1.9T for the same price and sadly, that's all I know about it. I don't recall what year it was or what the mileage was. It was the previous generation. * Pictures of what he bought are on page 3 *

Yes, except I would be left with about -$50 each paycheck after making the loan, insurance, gas, and service payments.
