New GM LT1 engine

450 HP and 450 lb/ft of torque minimum out of a much simpler engine than the competition while not using forced induction and being much cheaper and simpler to have and maintain, all of that while being lighter and providing a broad torque band is something to write home about sir. You might...

CTS Coupe vs. ISF

IS cars are nice BUT.....in life you NEED to expand your horizons a bit it won't kill ya to. The CTS are great cars with respect to the cost of owning them and maintaing them. I have had my 2007 CTS for 3 years now and it has far exceeded all my expectations and I drive it like I stole...

Saw my old car on the road...

I see what ya did there! :D Got me thinking about my previous ride and my previous girl....I loved both but there was a very good reason why I left both behind... when you find something / someone better it's a case closed and going back is asking for nothing good really hehe

No pics thread? Then tiem.

Yep, that engine bay rubber trim comes loose once in a blue moon, so I shove it back in there every now and then, should probably add something to make it stay put.

That's my favorite Supra gen, never tried one, I should add it to my shortlist :) It's true what they say about Halo lights only belonging on the E39 5 series...but then again, that specific one looks so much like an E39 it's kinda neat, would like to see a black one like that hmmm :)...

In the market for a new car - a sporty DD?

I have driven more cars than I can keep track of, and I always go back to my current DD (2007 CTS with the 3.6L) for best daily driving pleasure experience, just love it's low end ummph, it's high end scream and it's soft cruising goodness :) I have had mine for almost 2 years now and have...

And Android takes down RIM (US marketshare)

Oh I see, you don't think Nokia smartphones are smartphones so they must not be. You have never seen someone using a Nokia so no one in the US does. Got it!

And Android takes down RIM (US marketshare)

Just a quick look at T-mobile's site right now and I see two Nokia smartphones: Nokia 5230 Nuron and Nokia E73 Mode (A variant of the E72). And that's just T-mobile without counting the unlocked smartphones Nokia sells in the US (E71, N97, N8....etc) I have had a 6800, an E61 and now an E71...

Welcome Insight #2! Update: Picked the car up. Update 4/11:

A bold move indeed Eli, with all said and done I would probably not pay more than $2000 for it. HOWEVER Honda might be interested in buying it from you so think about that. when you hit 500K+ miles....
