A Horse With No Name

Actually I think it would be really cool to have an African car company. I know a lot of very artistic African Americans, and my son Joel is going to a high School (http://www.artcollegeprep.com) for the arts that is mostly African American. There are some really cool students at his school, and I would just LOVE to see what a different culture could come up with in terms of cars. I bet it would be a damn site better than a Camry! Chris

I know this is a GM board, but to me the 1970 Boss 302 trumps damn near every other car on the planet, a Ferrari F40 included. He gave us some fine cars. Chris

I love the way the boster four cyl counds in an STI. That almost sells the car for me. Chris

This is one of those awesome cars that you have a near sexual reaction to when you see it. I don't think any photograph does this car justice. The exhaust note on those is cool also. We used to do site lighting repair down from Team Rahall, and we used to do Electrical work for Team Rahall here in Columbus. Honda makes some great sounding race motors, and the sound of an NSX just puts a chill up my back. Thanks for the pics, Siegen! BTW, Silver and Red also look great on that car also. Chris

Ditto to two of your Ideas. I like the idea of a modern Prelude, I am still thinking about buying an older prelude in good shape. Great driving car, the last gen was probably one of the best driving cars of the 1990's, esp for a FWD car. Don't even get me started on the rotary thing, I am having a real hard time stayhing away from the RX-8 as it is. As a sports sedan, that would just kick ass. Chris

Congrats...GREAT Choice...I know you will be happy with this. Also, sooo glad to see that you got the moonroof. So nice for a ride with the Mrs. in the evening... Good luck and keep us posted, I think you did great! Chris

Keep us posted, Satty! Chris

I can not wait. Reg has driven more cars than Consumer Reports looking for his next ride.... But I am guessing HHR. Chris

Sadly, this is what people want. I am not religious per se, but went with my 18 year old aughter to church last Sunday at her request. She goes to one of those big Mega Churches sometimes. Of the 700+ cars in the parking lot, there was 1 Mustang GT and 1 Chrysler 300, and other than the Miata I drove over in, there was nothing even resembling an enthusiast car in the parking lot. But TONS of camry's and such. Which is why Toyota is getting rich. People want 97 flavors of Camry, for whatever reason. Chris

I would keep SAAB if possible, if it could be made profitable enough. I like the heritage of the company. However, Hummer needs to go and Saturn needs serious help. Chris

I would agree. Chris

Actually we almost bought my wife a Fit. Was not sure I was going to like the new car, like this even better than prev. edition. Fit is a great small car, I actually LOVE this Honda product. They just nailed the driving dynamics for this thing. Seriously. Between the Fit and the Civic SI, Honda builds some sweet driving cars. Chris

I would agree, sir. Chris

This is awesome-here in central Ohio, we have a guy named Farmer who has one of these that's an original factory Hemi car. IIRC he nostalgia drag races it fairly regularly. Chris

We need to reverse it and get a real creative class in this country to start making things we actually want to buy and own. Chris

I think something from the Era of the B-59 would be perfect for this. In Steven Kings novel "Carrie" one of the asshole high school boys drives like a 1960 Chevy with part of the grill gone that he uses to run over dogs on a country road. I don't think King could have chosen a better car for that role in the book. When Columbus used to have a symphony orchestra and I used to have my 71 Chevelle my wife and I used to drive that to the symphony. It was cool sitting in a line of Lexus, Acura, and other bland cars with a loud, politically incorrect V-8 with headers and a not too quiet exhaust. I like your fantasy. And if you guys don't mind, I want to go on a tangent. I am soooo tired of politically correct cars. I think that is why I hate cars like Acura, Nissan, etc. sooo much....seems like their whole role in life is to serve the upwardly mobile white middle class in this country, and be a statement of bland me too ism. Sixty Eight, I know you didn't like the movie "Vanishing Point" but at least it wasn't about a bunch of teenagers cruising around in an Altima wanting to start a recycling program. I'm ready to get back to some "real" cars. Sorry for the tangent. Chris

+1 Chris

I love rotary cars as well. I like wierd cars, I guess. Chris

That thing is still better looking than that Acura! Chris

All of the above indeed make great cars. The Fox body and the third and fourth gen F body esp. Chris

Don't worry, there will be a Kappa in my future! Chris

Nice Studebaker pics...and I would MUCH rather have the CTS than the Acura. Chris

Not a big fan of the car at all...I'd rather have your Trans Am, Schuby. And I'd also rather have a Z06. Chris

I used to own a 69 Bronco with the removable roof. Wish I'd kept it and fixed it up, but that truck defined Ohio rust bucket. Chris

You seem to like larger vehicles, not sure this one is for you reg. Chris
