A Horse With No Name

Actually Scion just won it's first ever national racing (class) championship at the NASA racing championships at Mid Ohio this year. It beat out a RWD car (RX- to do so...and it was a FWD TC. However, given that guys modding TC's pretty much start with a 20K car and dump 10K in (seemingly) it just doesn't seem like money well spent. For 30K, one could buy a G8 GT or a slightly used BMW 3 Series, either one of which will just own a TC. Or a used C6, a Used C5 Z06, A used CTS-V, a used Bird, Camaro, or Stang, or... Chris

It really isn't much of a show when you get four ad breaks every three laps. Chris

I enjoy sex...but I enjoy just spending time with my wife and children also. Chris

Me too! And I hate chain resteraunts also. Chris

keep it coming, bro... Chris

If it melts the tabletop, and then sets my shoelaces on fire when it eats through the plate...it is hot enough for me. I just LOVE what you hate. Chris

+1 Chris

Nice little dog....been thinking about getting a small dog for the family. You and I look a bit alike...esp. when I cut my hair really short... Chris

My inlaws owned an early 1990's Hyundai...it should really be on the list. Worse IMHO than the cars of British Leyland....and that's saying something. Chris

They built some cool stuff on the W body chasis, for sure. Chris

You might try getting it buffed at a body shop. I got my Safari van buffed when it faded out, and it still looks good. The secret is waxing the car every 3-4 months with good wax and keeping it washed once you get it buffed. I got the van done for $125, which wasn't bad. The guy that buffed it buff's/rubs out cars like Lexus, Benz, Cadillac, etc....he did a nice job. Since your car is smaller, and you live on Long Island perhaps the two factors would blance each other out, and you could get a similar deal. Good luck! Chris

And silver is a wonderful color for it, also. I've posted before about how good the 60's GM stuff looks in Silver...this is proof modern GM cars look good in silver. I like this almost as much as the Solstice Targa in silver...and that's saying something. Beautiful car, Bob! Thanks for taking care of her. sixty-Six

Exactly. A G8 family of cars and a new, fresh Solstice, including a Solstice Targa....Hmmmm... Chris

It is still fighting for life on both coasts, I think. But a modded civic is actually less common around here than a Grand National or a (1990's) Impala SS. Chris

We don't build buildings like that anymore. Wow, that must have been so...elegant and classy in its day. I wish I had $13 mil to blow, plus the rahab costs... Chris

Actually several of the cars on the list are rather creative. The MGA twincam was a joke in terms of how it blew up...but it was very advanced thinking, in that so many motors today are built with overhead cams like that.... Chris

But they won't. they will kill the sister car, SKy when the kill Saturn, and they can't keep Wilmington running on 300-1200 cars a month. They need to set themselves up for small scale production like Chrysler did with the Prowler, I think...if they could. IIRC the Prowler was built at the same small volume facility that makes the Viper. Chris

I just love this generation of Buick....one of my fav. GM cars, actually. I've thought HARD about buying one as a ragtop someday.... Chris

Ouch!....is it a write off....or being fixed....? Chris

Thanks for the pic, keep posting.... Chris

That is MUCH better looking, actually.... Chris

I think it would be great to keep the Solstice in production....putting this on a Solsitce would be great! Chris

I wish Obama luck also, along with every other person in office. We need both the right and the left here I think....we need to get away from the idea of deficit spending and borrowing for everything, and we need a safety net for the millions of hard working Americans who are about to loose their jobs and be unable to support their families. Chris

This would be my thought on the matter. To have Pontiacs heritage and pack in the towel is sort of like winning a football game by going back to the locker room and pulling off the pads before kickoff. Sad, really. Chris

As a fan of architecture, the destruction of Detroit as a city is the rape of the century in terms of destroying our heritage. Sad, really. Chris
