    That is the cover for the tow hook or shipping tie-down hook, I think. Should be one on the front bumper also.

    gasoline (as in the song 'Putting Out Fire with Gasoline')

    Looking forward to seeing the better pics, esp. of the interior..I've only seen gray and gray/orange ones up close.

    I like that blue..thought it was black until I read the window sticker.

    Bottom line, I don't think we will see future DOHC V8s in GM cars because car V8 development is linked to truck V8 development.

    Yes and no. The regular 911 Turbo is AWD, the GT2 is RWD only.

    What is the risk of falling asleep while driving a Toyota due to the inherent dullness of the product?

    I have the opposite problem w/ 2drs..find them much harder to get in and out of..it seems I rarely have the width to open the door fully. Long doors are a PITA in about 90% of my usual parking circumstances. And it's a pain to put dogs and stuff in the back seat w/ a 2dr.

    A concept.

    Fun... I miss living where car dealers are closed on Sundays, when I could wander around and look at the cars..remember going to a BPG dealer a few years ago,there were five indentical yr old DTSes on the lot, unlocked. 2 unlocked GTOs also.

    Nice sunny spring weather here yesterday, though rainy today. Saw two clean '65 Mustangs--a white coupe w/ red interior and a silver blue coupe. Saw a '63-64 or so Rambler Classic 4dr, hard to tell the color..looked like a faded silver blue or green. Probably the original paint.

    The world is full of a lot of seriously f'd up people.

    That is seriously f'ed up.

    On a Boat--The Lonely Island. Listening to the whole Incredibad album tonite..fun stuff.

    Saw a black '10 Taurus SHO today..first SHO I've seen on the road, I think..

    The OHC vs pushrod argument will be forever arguable, as long as GM and Chrysler stick w/ pushrod. Both designs have their merits.

    Don't necessarily need more cubic inches. Cubic inches aren't the only way to make more power and/or torque. They are still the top selling trucks, so obviously they aren't that much of a laggard.

    I assume the 5.5 will be in the C-class AMG as well (the current one has the 6.2 V8). Engine packaging is really only an issue with a FWD transverse setup where there are space constraints....if RWD compacts like the BMW 3-series and Merc C-class can fit a DOHC V8, then the space argument is moot.. What's funny is the truck fans always make an argument against OHC V8s, but Ford has built a lot of them for over a decade now...

    I went to college with a Richard Head..went by 'Dick'. I worked with someone w/ first name Dong and had a professor Wang in college (pronounced 'Wong'). 'Akbar Zeb' would be a great name for a rapper, he could brag about the meaning of his handle in Arabic..

    Strange..different perceptions of time, I guess. 1980 is pretty old to me..6 years before I was driving. 30 years ago. Of course, for 1/2 or 3/4 of the C&Gers 1980 is ancient--before they were born probably.

    Got to be the Buick Special. That car had the small aluminium V8, it's name was used previously, '62 was it's second year. The Tempest and F-85 also used that engine, but those names weren't used before. And the Porsche reference would be to a 356 Carerra of the day. 1962 is so long ago, might as well be 1902..but through the power of the internet, lots of facts can be uncovered.

    Hmmm...the original compact Olds F85 and Buick Special used that engine, I think. I don't believe the Pontiac Tempest/LeMans used it.
