Ro, I am feeling that! Nice ride!

The Corvette and the Cadillac are not good designs, imho. The Corvette looks very 70's Mako Shark Corvette like. Which for those who don't know, it's the post Sting-Ray design, and the Disco-Vette era.

Corvette FINALLY brought back humped wheelwells. A GM VP who didn't like them. They need to get bigger and bigger each year, like tailfins.

1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse, bitches!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

pretty clean. how are the maintenance costs for you?...my buddy bought a used AMG E63 last year...said the service A, B, Cs are expensive as fuck.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

yea, i only had one service done which was B, it was only like 500, not that bad

Not coming to the US anytime soon. We always get hosed, guess they think Americans can't be responsible with the power.

That wagon is nice but I'm a bit partial to this 500 HP wagon:

CTS-V

The C7 is actually based off of the stingray concept.

The C7 is actually based off of the stingray concept.

But it takes it's ques more from the Mako Shark than the original Stingray design (although from the top it does have similar designs).

Is that corvette a prototype? It's a little gawdy, and a little too different for a corvette.

They could use it as a template, but I hope it's not the final design.

Ro, I am feeling that! Nice ride!

I imagine it on blocks on your front lawn.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Love that video Hailblazers! I'm a big Audi fan.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Thoughts on the new Camaro Convertible?

http://www.chevrolet.com/camaro-convertible/pictures/

I really like the look.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

The roofline makes the Camaro look mean. But then again I'm just not a fan of any convertibles. I think a new-era T-top for the Camaro would be interesting!

**edit**

..Meh

 

[THE HCP]

Love that video Hailblazers! I'm a big Audi fan.

Then why do you drive that minivan bitch!?

 

[MIXUM]

2009 350z

[Colonel Ronan]

2009 350z

That's how i roll (wedding dj)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

I'm with ya Fez, not a big fan of convertables. I kinda like the T top on that Camaro.

 

[HailBlazers]

1989 300z

That's how i roll (wedding dj)

Speaking of T-tops. Straight outta Bristol.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Yup.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

Wasn't that known for leaking on almost every model?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

2012 Charger SRT8

This car would have been A LOT better if it were a coupe.

 

[THE HCP]

That's kinda ugly actually.

 

[Evolution]

I agree, but it has an angry look to it which is cool!

1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse, bitches!

I raced a 2000 Spyder GT in 2000 at woodburn in the 1/4 mile. They are slow as it ran about 15.3 seconds as my Supercharged GTP beat it at 14.4.

The cars that are quick are the 2009 Mitsubishi Evo 9/10's. they run the 1/4 mile at around 13.3.

Chargers are heavy with the 5.7 hemi doing high 14.8 stock. There are slightly modified 3.8 liter Pontiac GTP's doing 13.5 -13.7 times or better. I'm Mad Dogg.
For example: http://www.dragtimes.com/Pontiac--Grand-Prix-Drag-Racing.html


When my car ran its best i was around 14.04 It needs fine tuning. Its a 1998 GTP with over 150xxx miles on it. I'm pushing 310 HP and 300 pounds of torque. The downside is my premium fuel requirement and FWD. The upside is cheap insurance and cheap parts such as www.gmpartsdirect.com. My insurance is roughly $72 a month full coverage. The car is rated as a family sedan.

Here are some of my car clubs 1/4 times with Pontiac Grand Prix's that are supercharged and other cars.
