new car search
Second the thought of a new V6 Mustang esp...best in class fuel economy, great resale, and the new interior with the premium package is sweet. A new V6 Camaro would do well also....I am also looking for another car, and the Camaro and Mustang are both on my short list.

Clearly, Honda is run by people...
American Honda Motor Co. has told its dealers that it won't give them advertising allowances if they offer vehicles below invoice on TrueCar, the fast-growing online auto sales service. http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&drKey=292&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.vwvortex.com%2Fshowthread.php%3F5525240-Honda-goes-off-the-deep-end-warns-Honda-dealers-not-to-sell-on-internet-and-tells-Acura-dealers-not-to-sell-cars-below-MSRP&v=1&libid=1324146758151&out=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.viglink.com%2Fapi%2Fclick%3Fformat%3Dgo%26drKey%3D292%26loc%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fforums.vwvortex.com%252Fshowthread.php%253F5525240-Honda-goes-off-the-deep-end-warns-Honda-dealers-not-to-sell-on-internet-and-tells-Acura-dealers-not-to-sell-cars-below-MSRP%26v%3D1%26libid%3D1324146758148%26out%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.latimes.com%252Fbusiness%252Fautos%252Fla-fi-autos-honda-dealers-20111216%252C0%252C4913073%252Cfull.story%26ref%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fforums.vwvortex.com%252Fforumdisplay.php%253F1%26title%3DVWVortex.com%2520-%2520Honda%2520goes%2520off%2520the%2520deep%2520end%2520-%2520warns%2520Honda%2520dealers%2520not%2520to%2520sell%2520on%2520internet%2520and%2520tells%2520Acura%2520dealers%2520not%2520to%2520sell%2520cars%2520below%2520MSRP%26txt%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.latimes.com%252Fbusiness%252Fauto...073%252Cfull.story%26jsonp%3Dvglnk_jsonp_13241468767221&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.vwvortex.com%2Fforumdisplay.php%3F1&title=VWVortex.com%20-%20Honda%20goes%20off%20the%20deep%20end%20-%20warns%20Honda%20dealers%20not%20to%20sell%20on%20internet%20and%20tells%20Acura%20dealers%20not%20to%20sell%20cars%20below%20MSRP&txt=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.latimes.com%2Fbusiness%2Fauto...073%2Cfull.story&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13241468767231

Cheers or Jeers: 8,000 mile 1973 Buick Apollo
Neat looking old car...and amazingly, I'm old enough to remember when these things were new. I even drove a few of them back in the day, although I never owned one.

Why Do 'Worst Cars' Lists Always Suck?
+1 Like the Nissan Juke, for example If the Nissan Juke is pure sex I want to be celibate. A lot of cars are cutting corners with the eco0nomy going in to the crapper

A couple of members I miss having around the site
Actually I'd like to see you around here more often.

Why Do 'Worst Cars' Lists Always Suck?
Deathtrap yes, but runs 4 evar...I've owned 4 of the Safari/Astyo variety, two work trucks, two passenger vans, and they always provided reliable transportation cheaply. but yes the safety sucks.

Putting our money where our mouth is part 2
I always wanted a 75 Caprice convertible...as a kid, i wanted a 72 LTD with the folding roof and a 70 full size Chryco ragtop...one of the last of each of the full size ragtops. Pair that with a 72 Buick midsize ragtop, a 73 Mustang Convertible, and then a 71 Challenger just because...6 cars...that last of the fullsize and midsize regular convertibles...what I wanted as a kid. We had neighbors who had a 75 Caprice ragtop...old days....

Agreed....Honda built a Turd and the best they can do is let it die quietly.

Fun topic: Ford, GM, or Chrysler?
Buicks of that Era were fantastic...if I ever get wealthy I am gonna buy one for the Stable of Stang...or Horse....oops/ Seriously love the old GSX's.

Hey Balthazar, Camino, and 67 IMP SS
I see cars around here, although not as many as I used to. Agree...Dayton seems to have more cool older cars on the roads. This seems to be SUV and Honda country, sadly.

List Cars that run forever, and a day...
Jeep Cherokee with the inline 6, also old wranglers. Old Ford Trucks with the inline 6 300 CI Old Slant Six Mopars Panther Cars (Crown Vic, Grand Marquis) From FOMOCO. Old Volvo's from the 80;s. WRX/STI seem to run forever... We have more old Cavaliers and Sunfires on the roads here in Ohio than the General originally built... What else runs forever...or seems to? And Actually, since we have a few Corvair buffs on here..old Corvairs had a VERY strong survival rate for the longest time IIRC.

The 25K Car Challenge...
So if you had 25K to spend on a car with only two rules... Less than twenty years old, and two doors, what would you choose? My Choice? Factory 5 Roadster. What would you choose? Grand National? C5 Zo6? New V6 Camaro? Toranado?
