    Depends on the Track. Camaro is part of a full line up, Challenger is part of a brand that hasn't had a full lineup of competent competitive vehicles since Nixon was president and Love American Style was a regular TV show.
  2. A Horse With No Name
    Ahhh... rational!
  3. A Horse With No Name
    Methinks six or Bust!
  4. A Horse With No Name
    Also... Ferrari has not won at LeMans since 1965 either... I need to drive a Pacifica...I hear lots of good things about it.
  5. A Horse With No Name
    I was referring to road going automobiles sold to the general public.
  6. A Horse With No Name
    Sweet... would love to get together. On the way home... Saw a Rolls two door, maroon... Lamborghini...black... Aventador... Four or five C6...all of them black Fifties Volvo... Red eighties IROC Camaro. Studebaker Avanti. VW thing, white, top down. Seven or eight air cooled Volkswagens, including a bus...

    Which leads me into an ugly double bind....I feel better about buying Chinese than buying American made products given what you just wrote. My Dryer broke and parts to fix it are more than it is worth...thinking of buying Samsung or something for that very reason.
  8. A Horse With No Name
    You might look into that. Before I bought the large bandsaw I have now which is in pretty good condition, I was going to try to restore a vintage band saw. Local quote was seventy five dollars to sand blast everything and powder coat it any color I wanted...

    That is the sixty four million dollar question. I think more things need to be made here but I am more concerned about Chinese human rights violations than about trade. Maybe we could get some sort of enforceable human rights agreements to go with the trade agreements our leaders seem so eager to sign.

    Awesome...now just waiting for Sergio to give us some fresh products for those that want to drive on highways rather than race tracks...

    When I was a twelve year old boy, I bragged to a gas station attendant in Georgia that I was almost a teen...he said I was a taint...taint a child, taint a man.... Mercedes Benz is also a taint....it ain't Lamborghini, Ferrari, Rolls, Bentley, McLaren, Lotus, or the like...a real premium luxury brand...and it ain't a fun funky brand that offers good value for the dollar in something interesting. It also taint visually interesting like Cadillac or Jaguar. Or Land Rover for that matter... What it is...a brand very good at existing by manipulation of it's image and manufacturing consent among non car people as to it's perceived value.

    How many more Chevrolet Camaros and Mazda Miatas are driven in sanctioned competition every weekend than Benz? And is less attractive and less reliable... And Rolls existence is a problem for Benz...that is the problem in a nutshell...or nut House as it were..
  13. A Horse With No Name
    A question no sane person is asking.
  14. A Horse With No Name
    Just what every Pacifica buyer is looking for...a racing pedigree! Absurdity is lost on you, probably because you are a rational person. That is not always a good thing...the Hyundai crossover products are actually more athletic looking than the Benz crossovers. And the cost of the AMG GT R is how much more than the Camaro?
  15. A Horse With No Name
    Vintage Mustangs can provide a bit of excitement also...
  16. A Horse With No Name
    And for reference, it is not a Benz that has the fastest production time at the ring, look at this...McLaren hits 202 where the Camaro was at 168..
  17. A Horse With No Name
    And if you want to look at shiny new stuff, here is the ZL1 Camaro running 7:16 on the Nuremberg ring...
  18. A Horse With No Name
    Mercedes van with Patina maybe....something like this VW....? Looks much better on proper American iron... Although i guess if you were desperate enough you could ahve fun with a Smart car... Would honestly rather ahve something fun and unique like this vintage Studebaker than an S class... And since Dodge and patina were both brought up earlier...
  19. A Horse With No Name
    When i am talking fun....I love this commercial... Mercedes doesn't build anything fun....they build stuff that is fast....but nothing I am drawn to...
  20. A Horse With No Name
    Doesn't matter because Mercedes sells more S class than any other premier luxury car... Ohhh...and love the Mystery machine!
  21. A Horse With No Name
    No I have not...but I have checked out quite a few photographs...and I really kind of like it!
  22. A Horse With No Name
    Agreed....and late 70's dodge had the little red wagon truck and the Dodge power wagon and several other cars for someone who was an enthusiast on a budget...something that Benz does not have.
  23. A Horse With No Name
    Stinger actually looks good, the more I look at it the more I like it...it does have the Kia Family language all over it...and does look a bit like an Optima IMHO.
  24. A Horse With No Name
    They are made in China which is quite frankly disgusting...
  25. A Horse With No Name
    That will buy me a used Hemi Challenger, a passable used 911, a clean used Cayman, a CPO BMW Z4, a Mustang GT brand new, a Miata with 5 or ten grand in the bank, a Jeep grand Cherokee, a Used CTS-V, a killer vintage Mustang.....lots of things I would rather own as an enthusiast.... Fixed that for ya... Somehow it lacks the early 70's vibe of the van on Scoby Doo though...
