  1. The center stack on the G6 inerior just absolutely ruin it for me. So...square!
  2. Actually, I believe after the first year the oil pans were changed to accomodate 4 qts of oil, but I could be wrong. I'd stay away from an 86 2M4. For one, the Iron Duke really is a POS engine. unrefined, the car was notorious for leaks. Blech. I also don't think the base model is that much of a looker. The suspension on that fiero will also leave something to be desired. And having to already have to do the brakes--yuck. I think a fiero needing work already and an un-desirable basemodel is not worth 800 bucks. Maybe 500, but not 800. Hell, I had picked up a running Indy Fiero for $500 that needed some work.
  3. Yes, but you seem to forget...its Nissan.What would Nissan be without "Shift_"
  4. You guys should've seen the debate over there. People crying for the Impala to be on the list. And then the crowd saying if the Impala is on it, the Camry has to be on it as wlel. Guess which one made the finals Import humpers unite!
  5. Agreed.I HATE!!! the cardinals. We'll just have to wait till next year. A year older, a year wiser. Hopefully healthier too
  6. Its a memory expansion slot. Although I'm not quite my microSD card is going to fit in there too nicely.
  7. Aww man, I love that. That car is absolute sex.I just sold my 86GT. I'll get another one that day. I'd like it to be that ^^ one. Edit: Another thing about that photo: Look at the black truck. It looks like a blazer with a removable roof, right? That also would be f@#king sweet today!
  8. The issue is that more embryos would be created for the pure sake of making a profit by selling them. And believe it or not, there are a number of clinics that will not destroy any embryos, and only create as many as they need for each case.
  9. The first pic makes me think abit of the new 900's SUVs. Just gives me that vibe. But then you get the rear off the town and country, and that hurts it alot, imo.
  10. Man, I wish houses around here were only 250k. For that on LI you're looking at a one bedroom shack in the middle of Wyandanch or Brentwood(which, for those of you not from the Island, aren't exactly the best places to live).
  11. Aww, come on, throw a bid out there. I'm sure shipping can't be THAT expenisve.
  12. I'll have to pass on that one for now . Right now, I just need cash for it, since I already have another car, and my finances are a little tight.Besides, maybe I'll just do the clutch and take my dad's Fiero out for a spin V8
  13. After having it sit around for entirely too long, I've finally decided to put my Fiero up on ebay. It was a fun car while I had it(I loved the handling), but now with the baby and the wedding coming up, its time to go . http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...AMESE%3AIT&rd=1 Goodbye, my friend.
  14. How convinient that Toyota for the longest time was saying "300+" HP and now, after GM's figures are released, its "leaked" that the Tundra supposedly has 400HP. Paper engineering?
  15. Am I the only one surprised that, after all the predictions of adding 100k sales and all that, the All New Camry has only sold 800 more units ytd than 2005. Where are all the articles about how its sales would skyrocket?
  16. The Saab model of it looks terrible though. The sides are plain, and the grill is the worst. You can see where the bar is supposed to be, since the honey-comb grill just kinda gos blah there. Its a very disappointing effort, imo.
  17. Just to elaborate a little bit on this. One week ago, Stockscouter ranked GM stock as a 5(pace same as market, normal-risk). Now they've raised it to a 6--outperform the market, low risk. Toyota, otoh, was an 8 last week, but has now been downgraded to a four. Good times for GM, it appears.

  18. 32.90. Wall St. is going nuts on GM. Up 7+% already! Wow.
  19. I'm still pissed I didn't pick some up early this year. Was all ready to, but found out my father was being laid off at work...Ehh, oh well. There are bigger tragedies in life.
  20. The new question is: with stock >30, what does Kerkorkian do with his? Now that its "profitable"
  21. I'm not really sure what to think. Wall Street sounds happy but then... http://today.reuters.com/business/newsarti...usiness-ousiv-1 good or bad results?
  22. Why no high-performance G5. Take that badboy, put in the 260HP turbocharged ecotec from the Solstice and Sky's, and sell it for like 22, 23k. It'd be awesome.
  23. Earnings Preview: General Motors Corp. NEW YORK (AP) - General Motors Corp. reports earnings for the fiscal second quarter on Wednesday. The following is a summary of key developments and analyst opinion related to the period. OVERVIEW: All three of the Detroit automakers posted declines in June auto sales, prompted by higher gas prices and tough comparisons with the start of last summer's heavy incentives. In addition, GM's ongoing restructuring programs is also expected to impact the Detroit-based automaker as it struggle to right-size its operations and deal with mounting pension and health care costs. GM, the world's largest automaker, saw its sales plunge 25.7 percent last month as it faced difficult comparisons to June 2005, which featured the kickoff of a sales incentive that allowed consumers to buy vehicles at employee prices. Company officials said high gas prices pushed truck sales down 37 percent in June, while car sales were down less than half a percent. GM also said in June that about 35,000 hourly workers agreed to retire early or accept a buyout offer as part of the automaker's plan to cut its 113,000-person U.S. hourly work force by 30,000 and close 12 plants by 2008. GM expects to take a $3.8 billion after-tax charge to pay for the buyouts and retirements. GM's cross-town rival, Ford Motor Co., is also in the midst of a restructuring program and said last week that it posted a second-quarter loss of $123 million. BY THE NUMBERS: Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expect GM to earn 52 cents per share on $42.59 billion in revenue in the second quarter. ANALYST TAKE: Joseph C. Amaturo of Calyon Securities said his firm continues to believe that GM is in a better financial position than Dearborn, Mich.-based Ford and recommended that investors buy GM shares ahead of what he expected to be a "strong earnings release." "In addition to the material year-over-year as well as sequential earnings improvement, particularly in the company's hugely important North American automotive operations, we expect strong results from GM's other regions," Amaturo wrote in a report issued Wednesday. "Although they are considerably less important to the company's near-term profit turnaround, they represent regions of the world that are expected to post more meaningful longer-term future sales growth for GM." WHATS AHEAD: GM has begun 90-day talks with Japan's Nissan Motor Co. and Renault SA of France, about a possible alliance between the three companies. Carlos Ghosn, chief executive of both Nissan and Renault, said last week that the talks are simply studying whether a tie-up with GM makes sense, but they will not address the possibility of holding capital stakes in each other. STOCK PERFORMANCE: GM shares rose about 42 percent in the quarter to close at $29.79 on June 30 on the New York Stock Exchange. So far this year, GM shares are up 52 percent to close Friday at $28.98.
  24. [Consumer Reports] Toyota continued to show their commitment to quality by offering both on and off-warrranty repairs to their customers. They made sure to recall all vehicles in doubt before any problems could arise. We love Toyota. Toyota Toyota Toyota. [/Consumer Reports]
  25. There's our winner.When I had bought an Indy Fiero, I spent about 6 months looking trying to find someone to sell me the parts for a Super Duty 4. Eventually I gave up, and sold the car to a collecter(It needed pretty much a full resto)
