like how my dad had when he was 16... grr lucky

im assumeing you dont like imports....im j/w....why do people like you not like imports? and im not tlaking about the honda acords with cut springs and 35% or darker tinted glass and heavy assed crappy stereos and heavy assed body kits and neons everywhere and a fart can exaust....and then the owners call them fast...when the car can barely turn if it wanted to and it runs like 20's in the 1/4 mile....im talking about imports in general....also, would you hate an '89 Honda CRX HF with a turbocharged B18? or a mazda RX-7 that is pushing 450hp? or how about a WRX that has true altime AWD (actually its 4wd) and 378 dynoes whp? or a '95 240sx that is probably the best local drift car i know of....all of these cars are real cars and theyare...for the most part..."rice" free...as in no body kits neons vinyl graphics etc... im just wondering why hardcore muscel car era lovers hate imports so much....

Maybe cause it lacks the cool factor of Raw power and a blower stickin thru the hood with the rear end jacked up... granted its not so good on the turns but feelin the raw power under the throttle, not many imports shake when you accelerate like that.

Btw A fast Japanese car is cool as long as it looks nice, CRX... not cool... no matter what sorry. RX7's and WRX's are sweet cant compete with a 3000GT but still nice

CBFryman: He's 14 and he doesn't know any better. Any time someone is being ignorant or intolerant, they're probably a little kid. I know I was when I was a little kid. And the older and more experienced I get, the more I accept other people's ideas.

oh yes it is kool to have poor motor mounts and loose all that torque due to the engine rocking so much....and then when i try to turn the corner the wheel hop is so bad it almost makes me cry....no when i say i like muscel cars im tlaking about a GT500ks 185mph supecharged and nitros asisted....not a Chevelle SS with massive rear tires and skiny as a pencil front tires that can accelerate quick enough to run 9.0sec in the 1/4 mile but if you asked it to turn at any rate of speed it would flip

I don't like Kerry that much. He flip-flops on too many issues. But I HATE the Republican party. If you're not white, male, and you love titties and your guns, you're a fucking outcast. And the fact that Bush lied to get us into Iraq to finish what his daddy couldn't doesn't help either.

wow... you're less educated about the issue than I am...

ummm, can we stay on topic?(back to cars)

[FordJunky]

oh boy where to start... well mustangs in general, they were the dream car (ive wanted a mustang since i can remember) back before specs or money mattered... when i use to walk to school (3-5 grade) there was a red mustang convertible (95-95), dont know if it was a 6 or 8 and didnt care... when i got older i got into the classics (always wanted a 69 mach one even if it isnt the rarest or fastest) then as i got older (15-16) and realized i was poor... i really wanted a 77 cobra II jet black with gold stripes cause it was the cheapest cobra... then i gotta job! and wasnt poor anymore so i quickly set my sites on a 78.. oh ya... then i was introduced to the fox body cobra... it looked so sweet, hard to believe what a cheap body kit could do for the fox body's looks... but overall the one car i wish i could own over any other would have to be the herts shelby 350... OMG that car blows my mind... not just that its a shelby or the fact that its like the rarest mustang but the fact that back then you could rent a race car for the weekend... thats like renting a porche or sumthin and on top of that knowing that u were supposed to dive it hard. its a serious piece of automotive history...

am i a little byest towards mustangs? well mustangs werent the only cars i aspired to own, ive always wanted a porche, if i had it my way id drive a mustang everyday and come home to my porche... (unless i had the hertz shelby, then it would be the other way around) but if i could choose from any of the NEW aspiration cars and money werent an issue it would be between an f40, saleen, gt, vanquish and porche carrera... i wish i was rich...

hmm, how about if you could only have ONE car.
what would it be?
for what-ever reason.

just ONE.

no lists.

ONE car.

hehehe, how tough is this gonna be?

[kman10587]

That's WAY too hard a question...I have no clue...I can't even answer that.

2005 Ford GT.

[CBFryman]

'89 mazda RX-7 with a 13B sequincial turbo swap tuned to a reliable 350hp and basicly made for drifting suspension wise....or any year corolla AE-86 with an SR20DET swap....once agian suspension tuned for drifting....old skool ricers :-P as i got older, however, i would like the shelby mustang i listed before....GT500ks....or a '69 Cadilac Coupe 2dr Convertable DeVille....or a Porsche 911 carrera GT2....still deciding....
