A Horse With No Name

I would agree...Kinda like their 90's lineup better. Other than the 370Z and the GTR, am just personally not in love with Nissan Styling. Plus the Maxima is over rated...a front wheel drive wanna be at the price of a very gently used 3 series BMW or new G8 GT? I know a lot of people would rather have new, but given X amount to spend, which would you choose...Maxima or 3 Series... Chris

And RE: the VW's being "too complicated to be reliable" bull$h!. I agree 100%. Last week GMI posted an article by a California wack-o (Hope Croc is reading this) that stated she would never buy a domestic and that she owns a new Beetle that has quality problems because it is "over engineered in a manner to which only the Germans could take it." I couldn't agree more.... Chris

I love VW (obviosuly) but I agree on the feel of the Spec V and the Astra. I don't like the styling on the current or prev. Spec V, but it does feel well built. With the Astra, GM walked through the front door and did the right thing and still got blasted for it. Chris

I love the clean 70 design, and the "Cleveland Cobra Jet" as it is called would be great...as would a 4 speed. I almost picked up the sister car (in competition orange) when I bought my 55 Chevy. Thankfully, one can get whole repop bodyshells for 69 Mustangs now from Dynacorn, so I may still own one of these great cars someday. Chris

This is just sooo sad. Last time I went to the salvage yard, I counted 12 decent repairable solid late 80's-early 90's F-bodies. I like this bodystyle car...were the economy not in major, major trouble I would be working on one now. Chris

I always liked the Chevy bubbletops...looks good as a Pontiac "custom" also... Chris

That gives car guys like us a bad name with the general public. Don't get me wrong, I like Mustangs, but for some reason the Mustang owners group seems to attract more than its share of loosers. I could be (and probably am) wrong... Not that I would mind a '70 Boss 302, mind you. Thanks for posting that, Mustang84. Chris

It almost seems like we need a revival of intersting rock and roll music. I enjoy rock and roll, as my 15 year old son seems to be right out of 1985 in terms of his music tastes and I enjoy doing things with him. However, any more I find myself listening to other forms of Music, from classical to dixieland jazz. So I guess I would say that I find it all kind of overplayed and over rated. I guess that's why I kind of like some modern cars as well...kinda feel the same way. A 69 Mach 1 or a 65 GTO or a 70 Charger R/T all take my breath away...but I've been looking at the same cars for almost 40 years now. Of the more modern stuff, for some reason I kind of liked Green Day when they came out, but I'm burned out a little bit on them as well. Chris

The thing that amazes me is that of the list Oldsmoboi gave (Nissan, VW, Audi, Hyundai, Kia) that VW continues despite poor ad/promo work. Hyundai does a very good job promoting their product, and Nissan seems to have a really good feel for what people want. Honestly, I wonder if Ford and Nissan aren't the best positioned for growth right now. Ford seems to "get it" the most of the domestics, and Nissan is building more exciting stuff/more interesting stuff than the other Asian carmakers. Sixty-Six

I'm going to eat dinner with my family, put on the stereo and celebrate by reading a good book by myself. Personally, I enjoy leading a very quiet life. Chris

Buick Portholes are one of the first things I remember learning about on a car. My mother grew up in the 1950's, and I remember her telling me about what cool cars everyone thought they were and how stylish she thought "portholes" were. Chris

I drove my 66 hard from time to time...mostly posted this as a joke. Thankfully we don't have the Civic Idiots here very often at 3 AM. Chris

I wouldn't push silver out of my garage, either. Nice looking car, IMHO. Chris

Is that a custom or some sort of factory prototype? Chris

'blu, that's the kind of stupidity we get once in awhile on Brice Road when the Mopar Nationals come to Columbus. But lately the Reynoldsburg police have been pretty good...

I would agree with Stairway to Heaven....That song is awsome! Chris

This behaviour should be viewed as entirely typical... Chris

During an election year everything goes mindlessly to the left or mindlessly to the right anyways.... Chris

Honda really needs another Civic SI as good as the 1999-2000 model year car much more than the NSX, IMHO. But the (first gen) NSX is really a cool car. Beat the utter living dog crap out of it during a track day, and it just utterly, absolutely doesn't care. These cars seem to be like hunting dogs...the harder you run them, the happier they are. Sad they couldn't build another. Chris

Jennifer Anniston! Chris

That's because your getting out of school and your life is getting better. Chris

But you have some very nice GM Heritage in your garage! Chris
