ImportCArs VS. Muscle CArs
One thing is entirely INCORRECT! A Honda S2000 WILL not ever get 40mpg. NOt happening. f@#king thing has tobe revved to 8500RPM ot get some power out... by that pint you might as well be burning fuel in 8 cylinders but only at 4000RPM and stil getting more power out at a better MPG. What a HUGE Myth this is... these retards think a $3000 Garret turbo bolted to thier 40mpg Civic will not effect the Civic's MPG. All of a sudden it's like 12MPG in the real world? But I riced a japanese car for the sake of cheap gas! Idiots. I've overheard this scenario SO many times at N.E. Dragway. People justifying spending $4000 on a $20,0000 Civic to make it run as fast a a $3000 POS Mustang 5.0 or and IROC-Z TP350. "it's more economical, I make my Civic run 14s and still get great fuel economy" Sure you do and my STR4 get's 31 MPG too! (more like 13)

Love the Japanese Foghat album over.... pretty amusing! SO that's how you spell "foghat" in Nipponese.

IS350 Review
I hate to admit it but the New IS is growing on me. Too bad they eliminated the Inline six.

New Toyota Previa
Wow... that's amazing. Very Lucky I suppose. I have the image of the crushed test-dummy in the front seat burned into my mind. Then again I want a COE pickup so I shouldn't talk. At least the driving position is a bit higher and they used sheetmetal steel thicker than a beer can ot make those.

1960s _ P L Y M O U T H _ Colors

Just say NO to B-pillars!
Who was the first to introduce a hardtop car? (pillarless 2/4dr sedan) Who claimed to be the first but is disqualified for lack of a significant production numbers? What was the LAST domestic hardtop made? What year?

Knight's Challenge
Cool... thanks KF, your trivia is always fun. And everytime it reminds me of how I came || close to buying a gorgeous 1972 Monte back in 2000. :( Someday.

BELAIR CONCEPT?
Better not look like a lame-assed Sebring like the last Bel Air!

Crazy Idea
WAAAAAAAAAAAY too soon. Early 90s retro is not a pretty sight in 2006.

Which Camaro is the best looking
I'm assuming you mean 2nd gen RS since the '67-'69 Camaros never got a split bumper... althought you give me an interesting idea for a custom '68 RS.

2006 NAIAS: 2007 Honda Fit
Sixty8panther replied to Northstar's topic in North American International Auto Show in Detroit (NAIAS)Makes the Mini Cooper look like a 850i, but then again it's still better looking than a Scion Xa.

Happy Friday the 13th!
I tried ot get the hood open on the less destroyed one to get you that fan shroud you want.... no luck. Next time I'll bring some tools and take some better photos.

Camry named best-selling car again
I bet they sell three or more dispposable cameras for every one decent Nikon opr Minolta SLR but that does not make the $6.99 throwaway BETTER. Just had to chime in again.

Hybrid Volvo!
Check out this Swedish custom: Pretty Sweet! and you thought I was going to post the Prowler wannabe from a few years back.

Full-Size Revival?
Fiero I'm all for it... and a rear engined Corvair based loosely on the Kappa architecture a modern 240SX competitor yes... & a modern 240Z too! (not a V6 overweight origami mobile like the 350Z but a inline-6 lightweight) modern (last gen) Lexus IS type (Pontiac) Call is Grand Am Grand Am on the Camaro's platform (see above) a new GTO oh it's going to happen... don't worry a modern evolution of a (4th gen) Firebird so you want the GTO, Grand Am 4dr, Fierebird, Fiero and a lightweight coupe to go along wiht your Solstice? Let's be somewhat realistic. new Grand Prix too I hope it does not have tumors in it's tail lights. Screw full sizers... you were just chock full of good ideas untill you had to be a selfish prick!

Full-Size Revival?
We've had threads spanning 10 or 12 pages where we argue this point back and forth and things get nasty. For those of us who appreciate a nice boulevard cruiser wiht a live rear axle, C-chnnel &/or boxed frame and four-link coil suspension it is a very important thing to see these cars come back. It's not a gray area... either you GET it or you dont.

Caprice LOVES those quad rectangular sealed beams.

Toyota sued over Hybrid Technology
We don;t need no water let the motherf**er burn! I'd love to be the guy to twist the proverbial knife into Toyota's ribs.... but true or not I'm sure they'll somehow have the media on their side again.

New Toyota Previa
I think the Pinto is better associated with safety than Previa. Remember when those $h!-lumps were failing every crash test under the sun that involved a speed higher than 5.5 MPH?

A Thread For One Of The Most Biggest Sh!tlumps..
XP is his own man... I thought it was funny that he would grab the first piece of some rusted metal nearby.... (control arm off a 60s International Harvester probably) and break in a piece of glass on it while yelling at he car for being so ugly. Mind you the American classics get nothing but love and respect from him.

Hot girls that DRIVE GM
Fly: Absolutely it takes my eyes off the road, so does adjusting the radio station or grabbing a CD but I'm sure most peolpe are guilty of that as well. Taking a candit shot is "creppy"? Why? I'm not climbing trees to use a 18" long Canon tele-photo lens to grab full frontal nudity. It's a hot chick holding on to her B/F. Big deal, but kind of funny the king of Sodomy would call me "creepy". Here's another '57, this one a poor molested lowrider. Chicks' hot though.

My Pontiac Collection
nikivee: Great Colection. Thanks for sharing so many cool pics. XP: tell everyone how you FOLLOWED her to her house after she eluded you for a few months. Go over and ask her to trade straight up for Big Red... that's more her demographic anyway.

Granholm is so Effing Stupid!
Who cares about it breaking when it's a POS product even when in 100% mint condition. Most Chinese cars are gross and horrible... even if they WERE reliable I'd never buy one. Wake up people! It's a communist country. Christ, am I living in Bizaro world.

Camaro close to production?
Sounds like the decision is obvious and a has pretty much been made. Do I hear a few skeptics munching on foot? J/K
