  1. you sooo shoulda got an M3. Carbon Black with Natural Leather.. drool.. And the dealer will install Dinan parts, most are Dinan authorized dealers so your warranty won't be voided. I'd say the M3 interiors are pretty damn hot and don't need any upgrades anyways, ///M color stitches on the wheel, sweet SMG badge on the console if you have it, light up ///M shift knob is you have a manual.. Not to mention the exterior looks sooo hot with the big wheel arches, vents on the side and sweet ///M wheels. Corvette.. meh. I see one about every five minutes out here in san diego. An ///M3 though.. you gotta stop and stare if you see one of those go by. even Artic White looks sick on those cars.
  2. the only G35 with AWD is the sedan and its only offered as an auto. no AWD coupe, atleast in the US. no twin turbo motor either. Infiniti would NEVER go for a turbo charged engine..
  3. that used car salesman was such a old man homosexual..
  4. that Skyline is a GTR. They don't make a GTR R35. the Infiniti coupe is a Nissan Skyline R35 in Japan. but the only GTR car around is still that older R34. personally, I can understand why Nissan updated their Skyline with the new styling.. orgami lines, LED taillights, all the features new cars are featuring. but I don't think the car has the same balls as the old Skyline. that and I don't think they made them AWD in Japan or the US like the R34's, that sux. R35 is a lot smaller than the R34 too. it just doesn't look as mean to me anymore..
  5. seriously. those are the only vehicles I think are cool that are being made domestically. I mean ofcourse the Viper and Saleen are awesome but realistically those two are what I'd get if I HAD to buy something made here. That Mercury Maurader they came out with is kind of gangster. and I guess I like the CTS and Lincoln LS cars too. not first choices though..
  6. Vettes do pretty good in the races in europe, so theres no doubt they can perform. i just can't get past the looks.. only guys that belong behind the wheel of those are 50 year old farts. the new ones are kinda cool, but not much of an update from the last one it seems. if they could get all crazy again like the Stingrays and old old ones that'd be something to see. i'll just never buy another American car cause I've been spoiled on the European ones. as much as i'd like to support the USA's efforts in the automotive industry I think the only thing I'd drive right now if money wasn't an issue would be a H2 Hummer or the SS Silverado pickup. if I was old i'd consider a 300M (maaaybe) or a new vette. everything else just blows in my book. they gotta try harder..
  7. whatta joke. talk about some POS cars that were "winners" in that contest.. Corvette's are lame man, I'm sorry.. with so much better stuff to choose from for the price *cough M3 cough* they need to do away with that thing. there isn't a domestic car that can compete with the designs that have been coming out of europe for years and years now. you want halogen headlights, an A/C knob the size of a beer can and digital clock numbers the size of this type buy a domestic..
  8. Rally with one of the famous Audi's with Quattro drive. they've won all kinds of rally races with those cars for decades now. doesn't need to be a jap car to be cool ya know..
  9. that Optimus actually looks cool.. neat vid but not as good as the dancin' robo car commercial. that thing really busts a move..
  10. I read that its just gonna be the trunk. the front end is the most attractive ferature of that car. those headlights are amazing.
  11. that and the fact civics and integras are poopy FWD and the S2000 is RWD. I always assumed that would be a problem. besides the crank rotation thing.
  12. "vaginal lines" haha yeah I think the Elise is gonna be bad ass when it hits these streets. and they are pretty stripped down cars, I think the premium you pay on them is all in the design. but I can just see it now.. it'll be the "to die for" car for rich bitches in La Jolla where I'm from.. and the only thing they're changing on the 7 series is the trunk. its just a little update to keep people interested in the pricey sedan.
  13. "She"... that sums it up for me pretty good. I saw a few of the older ones that look pretty much like that in the UK a couple years ago but now that they're gonna sell them pretty cheaply over here I think its now going into the chick car status.. just kinda looks like it. i always loved the design but a small car that looks that crazy can only be driven by a 20 something chik that'll look "cute" in it. just like the Celica or MR2. i think thats gonna be the trend for these cars..
  14. HRE's- good choice for wheels Mr. Vette.. and I mentioned the 959 in my post too.. except I accidentally called it a 956 (pre-edit).. oops. And I love Bangle's designs. BMW has always been waay ahead of the pack and the new cars just solidify this point. NOTHING on the road looks like a 7, 6 or 5 series and coming in May the new 3 series sedan. In my eyes the 5 series is the perfect car. theres not one thing on that outside of the car that doesn't ooze "sex on wheels". it looks perfect to me. the headlights are badass, the taillights are badass, the wheels are badass. get used to "flame licked" panel lines on cars. square head and taillights and straight lines are on their way out folks. The look of cars in the late ninties and early 2000's = old 5 series (boxy, straight forward) The new look of cars for the next 5 - 10 years = new 5 series (wild, almost organic lines) The 7 series speaks for itself but I'm not a fan of the new 6. just doesn't look "fast" enough to me. apparently the new 3 series coupes will look like a small 6. But TEH HOTNESSSSS W0oT will be the new M5. There won't be a road in America you'll be able to strech its legs out on but hot damn, thats gonna be the ultimate ride..
  15. haha slope nose.. you never see those. once in awhile you'll see a factory equipped one (i think the originals were a factory equipped option). nothing beats a 959 though.. I was in Stuttgart, Germany at the Porsche plant once and saw two silver ones side by side. quite an amazing sight to see not one but two! I was on the freeway driving east leaving san diego and saw a red one once going the opposite way. pretty rare cars.. BTW the guys at the Stuttgart plant were super nice. I had a 944 Turbo back then and went into the office of one of the plant managers and he actually took the time to talk to me about the car and stuff. pretty kewl.
  16. yeah you're right they don't have any red on the back. cool with me though cuz its unneccessary and looks much cleaner without it. why do you want that much taillight anyways? I love what they did with the front turn/fog/indicator cluster. I'm gald the trend is finally going towards THE CLEAN LOOK. for an example look at the second to last Hyundai Tiburon.. there must have been twenty different reflectors on the front of that car.. jeezus
  17. don't the new 911's HAVE the red strip on the back..?
  18. yep, my A4 has the tiptronic steering buttons to change gears. pretty cool cuz if you have a drink or if your in gridlock you put it in automatic but if you have a twisty road or something all to yourself you push the stick over to manual. you can switch gears by pushing up and down on the stick or click the + & - buttons on the wheel. system was borrowed from Porsche. it doesn't have the paddles the 911's and SMG M3's have but its still a pretty sick feature. you can buy a tip chip for my car too that reduces gear shifting lag from 1 second to like .2 seconds. costs about $250. I chipped my car this week too. pulled out my ECU and mailed it to Neuspeed. Only about $180 plus the cost of having to rent a car for three days. huuuuge difference. a lot less turbo lag and the car really pulls now. now all I wanna do is upgrade to xenon and maybe get a quite catback exhaust. heres a photoshopped pic of my car with gunmetal wheels.. hehe my wheels aren't actually that color but they might look cool powder coated like that.
  19. yeah that 6 series is quite controversial. its just a body kit though. possibly photoshopped a bit.
