I'm not doubting your snowfall woes...but my last winter as a resident in beautiful West Virginia, (yes WV) we got 32 inches overnight.
@xboxdevil ) here's a pic of the AU.([bold]for anyone who hasn't seen one[/bold] there where significant body differences. however, mechanically speaking, the differences between the EL Falcon and the AU Falcon where minimial. it was one of the major reason's the motoring press hammered it.
this is what i would want [image]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a378/thelox714/sc430_1.jpg[/image]
o yea a lexus sc-430 hell ya i want it too. but at the price of about 63k it will be awhile before i save up.
I honestly would have to consider it. I mean alot of the times they ruin ppl's car, like when they put a fireplace in it. WTH was that? they do alot of stupid things. The funny thing is that PMR does the thing for them cause they feel bad for them or b/c they have such a crappy car but think about it, after all this crazy thing to it the person ends up having to buy a cheap junker. I mean they can't drive this thing around, they'd get jacked so fast there insurance woulnd't know what happened.
wheres "gear" at when you need him ,iam looking to buy a new 2006 Mustang GT with the V8 of course. any info. would be great gear i just love the retro look of the new Mustangs
I like fast sports cars as much as most people, but I would kill for a MK1 Escort Mexico!! Simple Guy, Simple Pleasures
@ aabbccdd i'd wait for the 07's to come out, so they can get all the bugs out. they still have a few problems, but sound so good with basanni exhaust.
cool thanks gear ,i may wait till they release the 2007 Camaro and see if they retro it like they did the Mustang , that would be a good move on chevys part
i wish they'd do a better job of retro-ing the Charger...i hate these wimptacular remakes....they're sedans! X(
sedans with power though. technology now a days has greatly improved and horse power numbers are respectable with good fuel economy. cars in the 70's were always under rated due to the EPA laws and crap like that. so a 70's muscle car back then was advertised at lets say 300 rwbhp (rear wheel brake horse power but in all reality, it would do well over that, like around 350 or more. but cars now are rated at the engine, minus a 20% reduction through the drivetrain, but the numbers are still good to go by. the F-body car will make a return, but i am sure it will still be faster then the mustangs. even now they are, in stock form, but keep in mind, the ford used a 4.6L where the f-body use a 5.7, a litre more, plus at least an extra 40+ ponies. i want the GTO, but black, i also want the 01 Trans Am WS6 T-Top car.... black........ looks sexy as hell !!
i really wish they'd offer a manual-shift transmission with the chargers. if i got one, i'd weld the rear doors shut, and do some body work to give it more of the straight lines of the original...that, a nose cone, and a wing, and i'd have a real daytona! lol, i'd rather just get a chassis and repro parts, and build a new charger that looks just like a '69, but has all modern parts. better fuel economy, performance, and raw power, while maintaining that beautiful look and not chopping any of the precious few originals that remain.
just bring it to my shop, (buy the old and new body cars) i will raise em up and swap over the body to the new chassis and there ya go. that'll be $2k dollars........ cash, no warranty, and thank you, drive thru please !!
