...is out of comission right now. lugnuts on the left rear wheel decided to fly off all at once while i cruised around a corner. at least the wheel got stuck in the wheel well rather than fly across the road. anyway, i have to drive this big old boat of a car i have to drive for the moment being. it's my mom's old ass chevrolet caprice classic. rather nice of it to die on a hill this morning, letting me roll backwards without brakes and steering. |

Sounds like fun! I'm probably going to be buying a peugeot 106 w/o power steering in about 2 months or so. |

hevquip (and others) have u seen the new porsche carerra GT? (the convertable roadster... actually looks new, not like every other porsche) nice... i think porsche making an SUV is pretty stupid... they make sports cars (damn good ones) and shouls stick to that they dont even make sedans, what r they doing w/ an suv! im sure it will be a good vehicle though.. it IS a porsche afterall |

what do you think of this BMW http://www.autoweek.nl/newsdisp.php?ID=815 |
||||||||
|
|

|
*shudder* |

959...ha! no way! those are 100,000+ dollar cars. that used to be porsche's supercar until they came out with the GT2. if you actually do happen to have a 959, you'd be a very lucky and rich person. |
||||||||

Have a look at these beauties http://www.tvr.co.uk |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
heh. well it's still just a prototype, so you can relax. i don't know what's with BMW these days, first that awful 7-series, now this.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hevquip, I got it after someone had run it into a wall and rolled it! It was an insurance write off, but in my infinate stupidity I thought I could fix it up for less than $20000. WRONG!!!! $37000 and counting. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
look at this beauty, the new ford gt40 http://www.rtl.nl/components/automotor/carsandbikes/program ma/GT40_051024x768.jpg |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
okay, now i can believe you a little. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
go to supercars.net and check those out, especially the bugatti veyron 16/4. quad turboed 16 cylinder with 1000+ horsepower. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dunno...for some reason it reminds of the 70s... not a pretty decade! : ) besides, it looks so.... so... north american! lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i would take a wrecked 911 turbo of some sort over a 959 just because the 959 is a much rarer and valuable car, so it's going to cost a hell of alot more to maintain/fix/repair. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
eh? well it's a redesign of the car that raced in the 1960's (i think), hence it looks a tad old fashioned. i think the americans made quite a few cool sportscars, the viper, the corvette, the er, ehm... okay they made 2 great sportscars. plus this one :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the gt40's look nice. the new ones will be for street use. the originals were only for track use, but they had to make a few to put on the street to qualify it for production class. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the new gt40 will be the 4th make of it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didn't know they were going to actually manufacture the new gt40?? i was aware of 2 protoypes, but that was all. it would be great to see these things on the streets, though. |
||||||||

north american (well, just american i guess, there are no canadian car manufacturers!) cars always try to imitate european cars... they do it so shamelessly too, on their commercials, their like: "the styling of a european car..." "the comfort of a european car..." "the handling of a european car..." "the performs like a european car..." "the name of a european car..." lol... i find it quite funny.. i mean: holy shit ford, stop sucking up to the europeans, and just admit they make better cars!! . |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"the performs like a european car..." * oops, i meant "..performance of a..." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha! i didn't know that! those commercials sound funny. if the americans try to make european cars, why are there no peugeots, citroens, fiats, alfa romeos etc. in north america?? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
because those are the crappy european cars. anyway, there's fiats and alfa romeos around n. america. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my friend used to have a fiat actually. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good question! i think its because north americans have big ego problems... and so we need big feul guzzling monsters of cars to keep our confidence up... ; ) hehe people in small efficient PRACTICAL cars would just get made fun of by their friends who drive fucking HUMMERS! even in big cities, small and efficient cars aren't that popular (at least not NEARLY as popular as they are in Europe/japan) its quite stupid really... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
crappy? maybe fiat, the rest are pretty much up to standard. it's VW and opel who are getting sloppy with their new cars. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, gas is WAY cheaper on your continent than it is here in yurp, so you have a point. heh thats true everything has to be bigger in the US. that's why you canadians built the CN tower, innit? good job there ;) |

American Cars look like they have been designed by spastic children. |

my car is a Peugeot 505 that my father bought back in 1980 (october) yes it is older than most of you and it still goes... miracle!!! but life is ending for "him" I think I will miss "him" a lot...it is mine since 4 years...but I spent all my life since i was 5 years old in that car... so much travelling round spain with my family... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My car is a 1968 and is still running fine. It's also from the american era when "Bigger is Better" and "Too much is just enough" were the way of thinking. I get about 10 miles to the gallon. I don't drive it much anymore because I can't justify killing the earth to 'look cool.' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
there you go! who said european cars were crappy: this one lasts for over 20 years! ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my next car could very well be an Alfa Romeo... but which one to buy? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
decisions... decisions |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
get a ferrari |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if i win the lotto i might but an Alfa Romeo GT might have to do :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for non ferrari types the alfa romeo gt is a fantastic choice |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shit the 1969 Alfa Romeo - GT Veloce in a red color is an awesome vehicle. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My car.. I've destroyed it on monday, fuck I'm so pissed off. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Please tell all the details from major to minor importance. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Haha, if it was anybody else, I'd say that I feel sorry for him, but on the occasion of you destroying your car, I'll just say that you're a moron. It probably had something to do with you destroying your car. What kind of childish idiocy have you commited with your plastic gizmo, heh? |
