Lightning

I'll take this one over all the ones mentioned so far, except the musclecars It's the new Caterham CSR 260!

I still say blowing the Enterprise up would be the best option 'cause it's not really supposed to exist in the continuity anyway, right?

I just finished Republic Commando this morning, if that's what you mean by "new Star Wars game." It's a solid single-player game if a bit short (and the ending is more abrupt and leaves you hanging way worse than Halo 2's), but the multiplayer is just sort of tacked on. If FPS is your thing, stick with Halo 2 for Live. ah, thanks, it was "Republic Commando" I just forgot the title of it, lol.

I say with that 3 mil that they saved up, they can probably do a much better Finale of Enterprise: blow the living (and unliving) Sh!t out of the ship in the last 5 min of the Finale, that way the Trekkies can have the ending they want, after all, isnt the best part of Trek the ship-to-ship combat?

I'm on there too, same name as on here. (at least I'm easy to find) I'm thinking of getting that new Star Wars game....but I already have Halo 2.

it's amazing how much the tires actually matter in this version, I was getting my butt kicked in my 3,000 lb 400WHP '70 Charger with Sport Softs, then I bolted on the Race Softs and the sucker will outrun damn near anything!

E N T E R P I S E S U C K S!

Been playing it since it came out, I finally got the '70 Charger today! even for a big heavy car it doesnt handle that bad, it's just going against the tuner cars that I'm losing (that Tuner Challenge series)

blasted Kalifornians! I wanted to go!

I'll go for this explanation.

All cars are meant to be driven, otherwise they would not have been created.

That would rather be a tough call. Because dude, why give up one of the best-handling cars in the world for something that's faster, yet possibly not as good on the corners? Well, I need a new car. I love my 99M3 but I think the current one looks like a bloated Jeta. you could always go for that Aston Martin Vanquish that you were tellin me about...

I thought you didn't like cars with "tiny little engines." there's a couple I'll respect and/or like. after all, the next gas crisis is fixing to hit in a couple years, I have to have a backup plan....

.......different, i kinda like it...

I'll take one.....

I agree. When I was absent for awhile (about 10 months ago or something like that) one of the issues before was WJ's way of somehow copyrighting every single little image on his site, even though it had been posted before someplace else, his smug attitude about it when he knew he was right and his visciousness when he was wrong made me want to use that puke emoticon many times, I was hoping this issue would be resolved by now, but sadly, it was not.

My favorite Smog-era car is the one I drive daily, a '77 Chrysler LeBaron, the first of the M-body chassis that later spawned the Gran Fury, the Fifth Avenue (buying one of those tomarrow to use for a race car), and the later version of the Diplomat.. One of the things that people tend not to realize is the untapped potential of the cop-ish cars, if you kill the body roll, It'll corner with the best of them, and you can fit ANY engine into these things, I kid you not. For example, I had a friend measure out a 426 Hemi, and we measured my engine bay, and the SOB WILL FIT!! however, as I dont have the $10k+ for it, I will find me a 360 to stick in it instead. However the ultimate sleeper if someone had the money or the want, is the Lincoln Mark VII (those boxy ones), you can fit anything you want in it, any suspension will work with it, and nobody would suspect it!

I remember reading that it was a simple case of Patrick Stewart looking better in red than mustard yellow. that......seems logical.

Different strokes for different folks. I will admit to having had a good time whipping around on back roads in my dad's old Z (Z31)... But I will say that I will probably always have an old muscle car (or kin) as my daily driver. Once you go that route...it is really hard to imagine giving it up. Even my friends, who were mostly into contemporary cars, were awed and impressed by my old chevelle (to the point that a muscle car is now on his "to buy" list). That feel...there is something addictive about it. I have driven my friend's 50th anniversary 'vette, and sure it is fast, but something felt missing. It was so antisceptic, NOTHING like my 454. It may be faster (top speed certainly, acceleration...I'm not sure), but it doesn't feel anywhere near as fast, or fun, or brutal. I see the merits of these little-engined wonders that are so popular. I really do, but for my part I have to side with Lightning 06...Give me torque, and lots of it, wrapped up in a massive, inefficient v8, please. a semi-convert! at last we can have these people and their imports appreciate V8's! Why convert when you can like both? that's why I said "Semi-convert"...... anyways, as of the "Have you owned a musclecar?" question, no, I have not owned one, but as of the Smog Era (1975-1981), I consider it one step below a musclecar, the car I currently own that is. And since I can get picky about this, the musclecar era could have really lasted from 1955-1974, or from 1962-1974, depending on how you go about it. The first Chrysler 300 was made in 1955, and was availiable to the common man. The second "musclecar" was availiable in 1962, the Plymouth Belvedere and the Dodge Dart 330, both availiable with 413 Max Wedge engines. However, their styling wasn't up to par with everybody else, even though they were making land-yachts with style. It just wasnt until Pontiac made the GTO in 1964 that the public really took notice. anybody have a favorite "Smog-era" car?

I find that fact funny as well....

guess the mortals are happy with their tiny engines....

The car, of course. According to the article, Mini TEC had to stretch the engine bay to squeeze in the VTEC. Though it's not noticeable until you park it next to an original Mini, the front end is longer. Silly mortals and your tiny things you call engines!

I'll take a Flare pistol that can hold a shotgun shell.

THAT WAS GREAT!
