FUNNY LINK
I can't figure out how to view it. It keeps telling me I've performed an illegal operation and Navigator has to shut.

2006 Buick features
BMW has auto-down on all four door windows. We should match that.

Odd pairings
Last night as I was sitting alone and pitiful, enjoying my dinner at a local spot, in walks a pair of folks that made me stare a bit: a little, gray haired with glasses skinflint, 5'2" white dude in his late 50's, with a 5'10" black girl in her 30's, with a Supremes hairdo. :blink: Made the rest of the room look boring. Does anyone else enjoy the sport of "people watching"?

Most annoying song
What does age have to do with good taste? I was an Oasis fan. I saw them in concert. But they compare to The Beatles in their own minds, nowhere else. I liked you before you left here months ago, but I have to tell you, since your return, you've been acting like a little bitch. Why is that? Are you still mad about the Josh thing? A lot of your posts have a tendency to kill the vibe here because all you want to do is hold on to "the fight".

I'm going to give up my Aurora
Excellent thread, and tmp's response is one of the most perfect I've seen here. This is why I love this place. Side note: Yesterday I was on a test ride with a lady in her X5 3.0i. We were returning it to her after nearly $15k worth of collision repairs. She had been using her daughter's RX300 (which her mother gave her when she got the BMW.) Anyway, she was saying how much better the BMW was over the Lexus in the areas of solidity, ride, steering feel, etc. Then she said "...and the Lexus is really hard on gas. It's an 8 cylinder, and it really eats the gas." I was like :rolleyes: but I kept my mouth shut. I was going to crack her fantasy, but... the customer's always right!

Un...believable, that someone would have the balls to say they prefer Oasis over The Beatles. Laughable, and telling. <_< :blink: :rolleyes:

Car Spotting
That is a totally awesome sig, Vipes. bowtie, are you ok? Yes, LA, the smaller quarter window was a later development on A body coupes, from what I bemember. I preferred the bigger quarter glass though. The '76-'77 Cutlass 4-4-2 looks good, with the big triangular glass. I like the '73 Chevelle and Laguna though, I think they got uglier as time went on, until the perfectly-sized '78 Malibu. Yesterday there was a pristine early 80's Civic (low roof at that time) wagon in our parking lot, silver/red mouse fur. How they've kept it from disintegrating from rust escapes me, but there ya go.

There was "slightly modified" 55 Chevy on eBay
Some Rolls Royce nerd will buy it, no doubt... http://www.cheersandgears.com/public/style_emoticons//AH-HA_wink.gif

What's Your Opinion of This?
I think most "custom" taillights look cheesy, but Vipes, it's your car, do what you want. The darker lens of the GT v. the SE is enough for me.

One day, Nick will find out what it means to bang...

Insane gas prices

3.9L in Colorado??
Nice spelling, citrus... "dickota", hehe. I agree with you about the 3.5. If my heavy 4X4 extended cab Z71 with 265/75 tires can turn a 17.11 in the quarter with me sleeping at the green, I am confident a 2wd regular cab could go deep into the 16s bone stock. I understand there are some intake and exhaust systems available for the truck now. I also think that 5 cylinder bellow at full throttle sounds kinda cool, if different.

Here's what my weekend will be like...
It has been an amazing season. She came on and exploded so quickly. Please take care, Fly.

The 2007 Buick LaCrosse Super?
Wow, that's very hot. It conveys an in-your-face classiness, with the cross hatch background reinforcing the "sport" part of the equation. Very encouraging.

Most annoying song
That STOOPID Spice Girls song... "Now, tell me whatchoo want, whatchoo really really want..." Ugh. I know it's like ancient, but it still gets on my nerves, and I haven't heard it in probably a year or more.

BMW builds the disposable car?
This is old hat where I work. We are a BMW dealer and we have techs who are certified in repairing these cars. We had an '04 5 series with the entire front structure completely removed and replaced due to these requirements.

Will the next TB be based on the TopKick chassis?

Loose shift knob on 06 Mustang
I would go to a Ford dealer and ask to sit in a 5 speed Mustang and see if the shift knob rotates.
