Rivieraranch Sells lovely blue P.A. Ultra
Yeah, the PA and the last Riviera are the best looking late-model Buicks, IMHO...they definitely looked related, in the curves of the front and rear quarters and other details. Great looking cars..

New Guns N Roses album!
I like Better...sounds good...looking forward to the new album.

Talladega Nights - The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
Hmmm...maybe the best NASCAR movie since Days of Thunder! I wonder if Cole Trickle is still on the circuit..

What Does Everyone Drive?
BMW, Jeep, and Ford for me.

New Guns N Roses album!
I'll have to look for these.. I was an GNR fan in high school when they were new and fresh... not sure if I'd like a GNR without Slash and Duff..

How to sell the 355 platform
The headlights down low like that below the spear looks odd..the front end is very blocky with strange angles..reminds me of a Transformer toy for some reason.
-
Now this is just AWFUL...
Agreed... hmmm..now how about a CTS-v with a padded top, 20 inch wire wheels and Vogues? Or an '80s Buick Grand National lowrider with padded top (saw one once, not a regular Regal but a GN that had been modified...horrific!!!)

Is this the new Mercedes Benz E-Class?
The photos in the Feb issue of Car don't look like that..they show a car much closer to the new S-class style but with wider taillights. The headlight treatment is similar to the first photo, though...kind of like the Lexus GS.

Mercedes CLS 350 CGI World Premiere
Odd...I wouldn't think of covering the lugs..seems too old timey like full wheelcovers or hubcaps. These wheels in particular would look better if they weren't so flat.

Apple iMac is simply the best
I love the Macs running OS X. Two words: UNIX INSIDE.

Spy Photos you never got to see
Back in early '03 I saw 2 completely undisguised Holden Commodores and a Monaro, all with Chevy Lumina badging and LHD and Michigan mfgr plates driving through a Borders parking lot. Wish I had had a camera handy..they must have been in Colorado doing high-altitutude testing for the then-upcoming GTO.

POS Netgear Router...
I used Netgear hardware for 10+ years (modem, routers, hubs, etc) with no problems... used them at home and in the startups I worked at.. their products always had a certain 'geek' appeal, out of the mainstream. A few months ago, though, I bought a Cisco Linksys cable modem w/ integrated router when my RCA cable modem died... no problems...

Chinese Buick Lacrosse
Hmmm..since it is not sold in the US, how did you come up with that number?

Acura dealers expect cheaper RL
One Honda I've liked for the last 15+ years is this: And I'll own one sooner or later.. I've always liked styling, and love the way they drive...a friend of mine has a '91 that I've driven a few times, a very fun car on a windy road.

Acura dealers expect cheaper RL
The purple thing in the fifth photo sure is strange.
-
My how times...
Yeah, seems odd to me too..but June will make 20 years since I got my drivers license., and I'll have had my '87 Mustang GT 20 years in May '07. It doesn't seem like it's been that long...

House Browsing
Sweeet....love the stone work and location...looks like an Aspen residence.

What's your favorite...
We had a karaoke machine at my company's Festivus party last year...among other songs, I sang 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' in a William Shatner style...(I'd had a few shots of Jaegermiester). Eventually a friend took the microphone away from me..
-
What's your favorite...
Yeah, it does seem like an odd pairing, but it would be fun.. I'm not much of a Bryan Adams fan, but I love Def Leppard...partay like it's 1985..

Favorite type of food
I haven't really developed a taste for German cuisine. Nor German pop music. Or movies. Though I do love many German cars.

House Browsing
I'd like a house with a concealed 10 car garage (built underground or in a hillside) and the house built partially into a hillside with a view out over a valley. Lots of stone, glass, and steel. Oh course, that's a pipe dream for now...my next home will likely be a decent $400k 4-5 bedroom 3000 sq foot recent build in suburbia w/ a 3 car garage and big basement (for the home theatre). I've outgrown my 1200 sq ft loft.
-
GTO discontinued?
Maybe for '07 they will rename the Grand Prix GXP the GTO. I wouldn't put it past GM..
