So... the Camaro will fail because the GTO did, because it's assumed that it will get poor gas mileage, because of its styling with respect to the more bland mustang, because it's assumed that women hate it, because it's assumed that it will be too expensive... I agree!

It really isn't a looker from the outside. It's almost like a Forester, with odd height proportions for an "SUV." I don't know how anybody can say it looks better then the X3.

29 and change when driving purely HIGHWAY... I don't bother checking otherwise

50-something? GMC 100 Pick-Up Ford Cortina

But what about all the hot chicks that come out of hiding when the weather warms up... I think I'll survive.

It might not go well with the grey interior, but what about a light-medium/light grey (non metallic)?

Mav's... I'm from LA, it's the only logical choice.

Hehe... those are always the best! I've fallen asleep (passed out) on a bathroom floor on more then one occasion.

You are right, the rear on the Boxster looks great... but it looks terrible on the Cayman, the greenhouse ruins everything.

This thread makes me glad I didn't second-guess my service advisor, when he told me they would be changing the coolant (around the 51k mile service window).

Excellent... now I can post my research directly into the thread, instead of having to link to a pdf created in LaTex! But really... that is cool.

Party in So Cal!!! Where's it at? Happy B-day Nick!

Conversely... you can argue that technology is giving modern V8's the fuel efficiency ?and comparable weight? of current V6's. So does it come down to which technology, with respect to power of a V6 or efficiency of a V8, costs less? In which case... the cheaper will survive.

I don't like these new "creased" hoods that Chrysler is using.

This one's easy... I don't like the rear of the Cayman (too much J-Lo for my tastes), so it's a Corvette for me.

Pro's: the sound, more free at the top end, fuel efficiency(?) Con's: performance gains didn't feel as dramatic as I expected, driver's side cat would smack my floorpan during hard shifts (until the heat shield finally broke off), miscellaneous leaks, "hissing" due to loose washers (O2 sensors don't seat completely), it's a "hassle" to smog I got a MAC system (definitely not the best), so that could explain problems with fit-and-finish etc. But considering how much they cost and the work to install them, I think time and money would have been much better spent had I just got a cat-back exhaust sytem or even just changed my muffler.

Since I already have mods on my car... In hindsight, I would have still gone with the suspension/chassis mods (upgraded control arms & panhard bar, strutt tower brace, sub-frame connectors), but I regret doing the headers. If anything I should have just gone with a cat-back exhaust. The air-box was a good idea too.

Are you sure? My '00 has SLP stickers on the doors.

Only up until 2000, I believe, then GM did everythin in-house.

I've been to the one at the Hard Rock in Vegas... good food! On a related note. This place we go to in SD (for $1 tacos on Tuesdays) has hot waitresses with t-shirts that read "Kiss my Taco"

new 9-5 and Cobalt SS Sedan

I rather not see Chevy resort to forced induction, I like that it's always been (at least that I know) all engine. Plus, I make fun of cobras for needing a supercharger.

I wouldn't mind having all videos in one place, or a pinned "folder" for videos in each forum

My Camaro gets a little over 29 mpg on the highway... so I don't think it's a big "if" at all.
