I have some ink from my Legion days.
Sony P5. Wish I'd have waited for the P9.
Yep, you draw a line on the face of the CD so that the middle of the line just barely covers the copy protection ring (which you can see near the outer edge of the CD). I believe it only works with...
I'm real fucking old.
I sold my company, quit my job, and I'm selling my house and my cars, so that will pretty much will make me an old bum. Which is sort of a step sideways from my previous...
(All comments regarding the 2002 models)
Major HP differences (about 100 for the R6 vs. 140 for the R1)
Major Torque differences (about 47 for the R6 vs. 79 for the R1)
Very similar weight
...
nosoup4u - outstanding!
Keep us in the loop as you progress as well.
I didn't get my first car until I was nearly 24 (I was in the Legion before that and definitely didn't need a car).
1) I splashed out a whopping $50 on a POS '76 Chevrolet Bel Air
2) 93 Ford...
Yeah, I sent him a note as well - it'd be nice to get him out if there's any spots left. Mike rubbed it in quite bad about what a great time the first one was. :banghead:
I'm looking forward to...
Check out http://www.dpreview.com - by far the best digital camera review site on the web.
The dImage 7i is reviewed here - http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/minoltadimage7i/
The Coolpix 5000 is...
As an aside, Ford Probe GT's of that vintage start around $6900.
Well, we already went over this in another thread, but it's sure a stretch to call this vehicle "very fast".
Seems high to me for that age of vehicle, but The Auto Trader is showing that vintage...
Howdy Farz! Good to see you here!
That sucks - sounds like he was on a fishing expidition. There are enough bad drivers out that SHOULD be given tickets without having to pull people over randomly and LOOK for something wrong. ...
:eek: OUCH! Man is insurance painful when you're young. It's nice that discrimination is illegal for everybody but the insurance companies.
Thank God I'm an old bastard now - I pay close to...
Me too!! This one I WILL NOT MISS. God willing...
As I clearly noted, I would pick the M3 over the CLK. Did you not read my post?
Personally, I prefer the M3 over the CLK because the CLK is not my style of car. But you can't say that one car is "better" than the other unless you know what criteria are being used.
Is the M3...
Thank you for finally realizing that the comparison to the CLK was not the best comparison, since buyers of the CLK are looking for different things than buyers of the M3.
And thank you for the...
So the myriad other magazines that compared the C32 to the M3 must be super-stupid, and only Car and Driver got it right? :dunno: All of the other publications must feel ridiculous for feeling that...
Faster than the old CLK55 and the C32 does not mean "better". "Better" is a term that each driver must determine for themselves based upon their own criteria. If your criteria are "faster and...
Why don't you do a search yourself of all the M3 comparisons - see which car it's most commonly reviewed against.

If that's...
uhhh, proof of what? That I read magazine articles comparing the two?
A) Who gives a rat's ass
B) How do you suggest I prove that I read something in the past, a Vulcan Mind Meld?
In the first paragraph, I talked about one manufacturer lying about power figures and another manufacturer having problems with blown engines.
The second and third paragraph go on to talk about...
You were the one who wanted to call the magazines, not me. Personally, I think they were closer comparing the C than trying to compare the CLK.
The M3 was chosen in every article I've read when...
Most magazines compared the M3 to the C32. You may want to call all of them and mention that the C32 has too many doors.
Let's take a look at my post, mister genius:
"...I think BMW deserves..."
"...the new M3 engine..."
"...BMW drivers ..."
"...most M-series ..."
"...given the choice between the C32 and the...
One of you say that we're comparing sports cars, and the other one says that we're comparing cars that are similar in price
Let me take these comments one at a time:
Angisio,
My comments...
Lying about the power ratings is worse than having engines blow at a pandemic pace? Compound that with the fact that they're not covering the damage under warranty?
I think Ford deserved all they...
I agree - skip the kit. The shape of your car doesn't lend itself well to the modern kit looks, it looks slicker without it.
I think your car looks "right' the way it is.
Spend your cash on...
A 15.0 run would spank a stock V6 Firebird. Probably low 16's for the V6 at this altitude.
The Trans Am is a particular model of Firebird that includes the V8 engine, so there are no V6 Trans...
I don't know if there's any sort of "official waiting list" for track day, but I'm going to be out of the country from Saturday until Monday afternoon, so unfortunately I won't be able to attend.

:bigpimp:
$15,000 less is not "a couple thousand cheaper". For the price of the M3, I could have an AMG SLK32. Oh, wait...
"It's all warranty so who cares" - that'll be comforting as your $80,000...
A CLK320 is $59,900. The M3 base price is $73,500, and you'll NEVER get one that cheap.
Sound quality will DEFINITELY vary with wire, and you don't always get what you pay for. Thick "monster" cables, for example, tend to make the sound somewhat muddy, and I wouldn't recommend them for...
I think they're just wrong, whether convex or not. Your side mirrors should be positioned to allow you to see what is beside you. The rearview mirror should only be used to see what is behind you.
You're missing ALL of my favorite beers in that list.
A small sample of a few of my favorite non-microbrews:
Guinness
John Smith's
Tetleys
Kilkenny
Rickard's Red
I seriously am selling, both the SLK32 and the 230. PM me for details.
I've got a good deal for you on a "gently used" Bahama Blue... :burnout:
