My European Dream Car
Not a far cry form the Del-Soul-less but NOT European. Suzuki is still a Japanese company last time I checked.

Turbocharged Pocket Rocket
Nope... nice try though. Wrong decade, wrong manufacturer.

Maybe I should have clarfied... I think owning a Northstar is expensive enough even with the 300 horsepower and a smooth V8... having 3/4 of that power and smoothness in a package that's about 9/10 as expensive to maintain is not worht it IMHO. I'd rather have the 3800 if I can't afford a V8. I'm not a big fan if V6s in general. Much prefer an Inline-6 over a V6. The 3800 though is a special engine indeed.

Cadillac BLS In Depth
See.... exactly!!! The fact that when you think of "B" names in relationship to Cadillac you think of Biaritz and Brougham is a perfect example of why the name BLS makes no damn sense for a $h!ty little FWDer. and I think you guys are wrong about this whole C/S/D series thing. That's bull$h! and pretty much can not be verified. In any case to millions of Cadillac fans DTS will always be a Deville etc., plain & simple.

6767?
Well... I'd hope the 300 series cars would be allowed to live past 26 years... or 25 if you disregard the "Oh" so it's not a 300O.

Not a big fan of the shortstar. This is a big heavy car... should be pushed not pulled and it needs at least the 4.0L No* either way. All these Auroras are is the next-gen. LSS that got rebadged last minute when the 2nd gen. Aurora was canned when Buick decided the Rivirea was going to sleep wiht the fishes.

Cadillac BLS In Depth
I dropped it, why can't you? Nice moderating. Olbsmoboi: S-series? No Actaully it was "Seville Touring Sedan" & "Seville Luxury Sedan". I own one. ETC is and always will be "Eldorado Touring Coupe". Otehr wise wouldn't a EXT be an E-series too like the Eldo? The reasons you gave make as much sense as why Hyundai named thier $27K Rolls Royce a XG350. B-series? C'mon that's retarded. BLS is just lame and weak. Even Series-62 was better than that.

Versatile Personalities?
Yes, and it's only gotten worse since I've become a dad and my relationship with my girlfriend has gotten way above and beyond the simplicity of just the two of us. Having a baby changes everything, you HAVE to be a little more versatile in your thinking. Living for today is no longer acceptable.

ZO6 or Z06?
They killed the Zxx in 2003.... the Z/28 was the first designation that was actaully known by the general public, sure there was a Z06 in 1963 but that was not a commonly udes term by even Corvette guys. So in other words without a Z28, what's the point of Z24 or whatever.

What Decade of Music Do You Like?
Voted 1960s but 1970s are a close favorite. Even though I'm just about to turn 27, like with everything else in my life I've got the taste of a 53 year old Baby Boomer.

Spy Shots
The only thing I have to add to this thread is that my beloved but soon to be sold 1968 Camaro was bought, daily driven & drag raced just outside of Bakersfield from the fall of 1967 to about 1987. I have a few photos... (gotta yank them off the old hard drive) of the car wearing it's red, then black then blue paint out there in Bakersfield Calif.

Camino's First Camino
Nope, I did that.... fugured where you go by just "Camino" you wouldnt care if I eliminated some unnecessary width. I'd love to T-bone a few Civics with a beat up old ElCamino with cop-car pushbars on the front. Minimal damage to the Chevy... unibody torn in half on the Japanese Sardine can. That would be so satisfying. Remember that Caprice vs. Accord stunt Jay Leno setup? God that warmed my heart!

Worst Drive to work
You have a C6? Post some before photos in the Member's ride section. That car needs like $17-$20K to be like new again. It looks rolled... the top-clamshell looks F***ed too. Sorry to hear about this.
