Couldn't see spending $$ on that car when I will never be done with the T/A.

True, the TA does have that purpose.

Hell...I wasn't even up for the 3-step paint crap today.
Roommate talked me into it.

Re: Banter Thread Part 3 (Back with a Vengeance, this time its personal)

Ran into an '04 GTO last night.
Don't know anything about it other than that. Hit it from about a 60mph roll...(assuming his was an M6, mine an A4) but surprisingly stuck with him the entire way. He hit it before me, so he jumped out about 1 1/2 lengths, but he never pulled further than that away when I stepped on it. So, I'm pretty happy with that considering I don't have a tune for anything I have.
Just thought I'd share.

Nice!!!

I would assume you should stay with one though. Big car requires a bit more power to be as quick.
Nice cars though!!!
I would really enjoy one with a mild stroker.

Re: Banter Thread Part 3 (Back with a Vengeance, this time its personal)

Yeah, plus high speed rolls in an auto is a big disadvantage. From that speed, I pretty much only kicked down into 3rd. 2nd gear is my pull gear.
But I would really like to line up with an LS1 and see how the Z really handles it. My friend at work has a 99 Anniversary WS6, but he drives like a little woman and doesn't go over 60. I'll eventually run him though.

Yeah, the white with blue stripes and matching baby blue rims with blue ram air. Its bone stock though. He talks a good game but actually doesn't know shit about cars. We make fun of him so much behind his back. Its his only vehicle and has to drive it during the winter too. He doesn't deserve that car.

Re: Banter Thread Part 3 (Back with a Vengeance, this time its personal)

Yup, that's it. But those wheels look like a darker blue than my friend's wheels. Must be the lighting or something. Beautiful car though.

Will the collector's value of the car go down if it had aftermarket stuff on it?
That's one of his excuses for not doing anything to it, "it will lose value...wah wah wah..." Sweet car nonetheless.

Re: Banter Thread Part 3 (Back with a Vengeance, this time its personal)

i wouldn't think so. to me that would make it more unique as most have that "leave it stock" attitude. as long as you keep all of the original parts so there is the option to return it to stock.

Yeah, modern V8's aren't meant to be left stock.
