  1. to not reveal the whole concept car pic. We all kept hitting "Refresh" to see if he'd post the answer!
  2. #4 Hence my purchase of a CTS. I'm not sure what I'm going to do next time around. I may trade the CTS for two cars. A new Saturn Sky for fun and a 1996 Fleetwood for around town daily driving. Or just might get another '08 CTS.
  3. The idea that Schwinn is a better transmission manufacturer because they make a 36speed.
  4. I run on a Ferrari:
  5. That's enough out of you :-P

    I"m in
  7. it looks out of proportion somehow
  8. My suggestion stands.
  9. Lets review then. We don't take an existing gasoline engine, cover the plug holes, run diesel oil through it, and call it a day... m'kay?
  10. 79 years old.... in spandex? :shudder:
  11. Class, didn't we go over the chapter on how not to make a diesel engine?
  12. WTF? I think you just need to stop talking on this subject. Seriously, it would save you face to say "I just don't really know... I haven't even met gay people".
  13. I was just in the 360 degree view on Buick.com. The press is going to pan this car for the blue/green LED displays. :-(
  14. I've seen that Bonneville before. It is usually stationed at the police office over in the strip district.
  15. You apparently haven't met the same kinda men I've met.
  16. It's the end of the N-body.
  17. t-mobile isnt' bad. They have some decent plans that work well for some people. Their network coverage isn't terrible in metro areas either. There just isn't any point paying extra money for a Quad-band phone on the T-mobile network. Most, if not all, quad-band phones are extra cost. If you want T-mobile, just go with the nicest, cheapest phone that has the features you want.

    Black to match my car. Same as my old Motorola MPx200
  19. Uhm.... 4 valves per cylinder, 4 speed auto, dual exhaust. :P
  20. Ya know what, I'm still getting this even after walking away from my PC for a while. I'll come back, hit "View New Posts" and it tells me to wait at least 10 seconds... even though I just had to wiggle the mouse to kill the screensaver.
  21. Funny. I have features of both of my parents. As a kid, I looked a lot like my mother. These days I look a lot like my father and paternal grandfather.
  22. Damn.... as loaded as I can make it and it's still cheaper MSRP then my CTS with Lux package
  23. I'm a Quiznos kinda guy myself.
  24. A friend of mine had a beautiful pearl white 98 Riviera S/C. Even in a car that big the 3800SC did really well. It felt equally as fast as my CTS overall. My CTS is faster on the top end of the speedometer, but the Riv felt like it could take me on the lower end. My biggest complaint was the suspension... going from a CTS to a Riv in curvy western PA was scary for someone who drives as hard as I do. They are two very different style of cars. The CTS is great for carving up mountains and gets impatient with around town driving or turnpike cruising. It doen't like to be driven softly at all. It can be tiring on the PA Turnpike because of the stiffer suspension and the poor quality of the road. The Riv is great for long distance, high speed driving because of the soft suspension and is suprisingly good at around town because of it's loads of low end torque. If I had the budget, I'd have a Riv for my daily driver/long distance cruiser and a CTS-v for my weekend fun car.
