yea, a prelude would be a cool car...and I know you said you didnt want to hear talk of fieros, but may I ask what the reason for you not being able tog et one is? Do your parents not want you to have one or something? I think that's the reason if i remember correctly...

Do we need to take into consideration insurance and all that? you can find an early 4th gen Z/28 for around that price i'm sure...(or maybe in your case, a firebird)...or maybe an e30 3 series? I dunno if you're into those, but my friend found a 1988 325 in really clean shape and low miles for 4 grand. They are very fun, solid cars and have a huge aftermarket if you're into that and the car has been very reliable for him. From the sounds of it, you want a car, so I wont go into trucks or SUV's. You could find a later 90's civic in your price range easily and I'm sure they are decent cars. I'll think about it and give you some more ideas later...

yea, the new M-roadster, or M-coupe, or better yet, the M6 (or even M5) would be awesome. (what would be even cooler is seeing him in a Z06) :AH-HA_wink:

My friend's dad after watching Moulin Rouge ordered up some Absinthe...I guess he found a place that can ship it to the US with no problems...

ok...so lets get my first drinking experience outta the way...i'll make it short and sweet...to put it bluntly, downed half a bottle of Absolut, about 3 shots of 151 and 2 shots of parrt bay followed by about 3 cheap ass cigars...was all cool for a while and whatnot...my friends and i went walkin around and stuff...I was like numb...when we came back into my bud's room my head tilted downward and everythign just started to flow back out...oh, did i mention i was on anti-depressants? Anyways, so last week my frends and I got together and we started taking a few shots of tequila...then we decided to play some darts and if we missed or our dart bounced or fell we had to take a shot, and whoever lost had to take a shot...well, let's jsut say I missed a lot of times...oh, we were chasing with beer btw...So, yea...by the end of the night I had about 10 shots of tequila in me and about 4 or 5 beers...very fun night...my buddy and I were messin around in the street...he chucks his shoe at me, I throw it back, then he picks it up and smacks me in the face with it nearly breaking my nose (it still hurts). I then tripped over my friend's sea-doo trailer and face planted on the driveway (didn't feel it at the time, but knew I'd feel it in the morning)...Then I guess throughout the night I was chasing one of my other buds around, and I was also found breakdancing a couple times, then later I passed out in the middle of the street. I think I puked...(it looked all weird and pink)...then my friend took me inside the house where I proceeded to pass out in the spot he happened to have called dibs on earlier...not too much of a hangover...just a bit tired and wiped out the next day...but yea...it was a fun night...i think...

Well, a lot of countries use nice cars too...In Germany I know they use 5-series as their pursuit vehicles I believe...Italy has that Gallardo :P Maybe poorer countries use smaller, inexpensive cars, but for the most part I believe most European pursuit vehicles are actually pretty nice...

Auto trans? I always thought BMW shared just the getrag manual trans...

tell me about it...I test drove an '05...couldn't imagine driving anything less...that thing was a beast! Very cool car.

ok...we need more chicks on these boards...it's turning into way too much of a sausage fest....

If not I have something that will have you laughing your ass off! oh, NWS btw... http://www.filecabi.net/host/file/buttrocket/wmv

OMFG...I just had like a whole long thing typed out and my firefox decided it would die... Anyways...Sorry to hear about your situation Silvester...as Stace said, this too shall pass. The universe tends to work itself out and everything falls into place in time. You are a great guy and a great father. I foresee everything working out for you though. crap happens, unfortunately this is some pretty big crap especially because your daughter is caught in the crossfire. But things will work out eventually (and hopefully for the better). You have my condolences. I know I live pretty damn far away from you, but if you need anything, I'll do my best to help out in any way I can. If you want to talk or whatever it may be, I'm here for ya. (btw, brought 'em back for ya :AH-HA_wink: ) VVVVV

Sounds like USC...a nice school in a crappy area... Good luck with everything though, sounds like you've got a lot to look forward to...just hope it doesn't involve you waking up one day and finding your camaro on cinder blocks with pretty much everything stripped and all that's left is the 3800 :P

yea...especially close to me...(well, maybe like 45 minutes, but still pretty close)...

wow...just wow...I think i'm about to cry...that's horrible...I can only think of the things I'd do to that douchebag if it were my car I mean, it doesn't even have to be an M3 (though that just makes this whole scenario even more wrong) but what that guy did is just disgusting...I mean, the owner of the car did nothing wrong! ...I honestly just shed a tear for it...I, I can't even look at it...I've gotta go...

CPK makes some of the best pizzas...they have good salads too...I love CPK...they just opened up a CPK restaurant in town, before we just had the walk in style.

or you could just purchase some bolt-ons... I do love those SS's though...they are sick cars...they make great lowriders, if not some of the best.

You know, I honestly don't think there is one food item I don't like...I mean, that isn't to say I wouldn't take certain food items over others, but I don't despise any foods...

the lights look they came off an SRX...they may be slightly taller though it seems...

Oh whoops...sorry 'bout that BV...it's been fixed... oh, btw Ocnblu, that top pic is a jag S-type...and it's more like the kia copied everyone else...I am not sure if you were trying to be sarcastic or what...just clarifying :P And Toni, you are correct, the new sonata is much mroe of a ripoff of the Accord than it is of the escort...don't even know where that one came from...

I saw a lesbian episode and there was this guy on the bus...but it wasn't a guy, just a very big, ugly, butch woman...very strange...

Medium rare, pepper encrusted, garlic studded filet mignon with a side of creamed spinache and garlic mashed potatoes. MMmmm

I hope you're joking...they look nothing alike...

So driving today in my neighborhood I saw this kid in a prius pouring a 5 gallon thing of gas into his car...he was stopped in the middle of the road...his friend in his escalade looks like he came to the rescue and brought him the gas...it was pretty hilarious...anyways, just thought I'd share ;)

wtf?! the Z06 is faster than that :P but seriously...I wonder what the hell happened, and I hope it wasn't the cars fault...luckily no one was hurt...The vette held together pretty well it looks like...
