Lol, I know you did your Intergra the right way Ken ;)

Folks that know what they're doing can get some truly amazing performance from those little imports no doubt about it and I really do appreciate them but sadly those are few and far between. It aggravates the crap out of me how all these kids stick a fin and a fart pipe on their car then think they're street racers.

I've always been a fan of the STI, and The European Evo VIII is absolute hell on wheels.


On the topic of Porsches I'm one of the few who love the old 928 :)

hahahha...that is so classic~ :) but nevertheless, so insanely TRUE.

i've never been a real fan of porsches, but i have to say some of them look very clean and has some smooth lines to it~ btw, my ex had a porsche 928...i wasn't so much concerned with the way it handled or the power in it, i was more interested in the available "occupancy space" if you catch my drift~ hehe.

no pun intended, but i need room to "manuever" when im inside the car. :)

Too bad she didn't own an Excursion and have a few 'open-minded' girlfriends ;)

In the spirit of this thread I suppose if I were dreaming mine would be an Aston Martin Vanquish. Hand built V12, exquisite lines and the most gorgeous interior.

My best buddy picks up a 7 month old R-type Civic next Friday. After I took him out in his 106GTi down some familiar country lanes, he won't let me drive his new car.

He thinks I am a nutter.


GODDAMMIT!

That car had grip, roundabouts are a dream come true.

The Brits are the ONLY people who can make nice interiors (leather & walnut are a speciality). BMW & Mercedes THINK they can.


Yeah right!

German engineering is THE most overrated piece of crap. BMW may make pretty cars, but they are usually driven by complete dickheads who are usually trying to make up for other inadequacies. They drive like they own the road. It is pure ostentation. The old "look at me" syndrome. Do BMW owners know what traffic signals are for?

Don't get me started on men who drive convertibles.


Or people who drive Mercs.

Wasters.


Audis? That's a completely different kettle of fish. Quality & style mixed with an appreciation of quality.

The only exception.

I worked with German engineered machines for years, (hence my incredibly low opinion of them) I have many friends in the trade who concur with my thoughts.

I was a mechanical Engineer for 17 odd yrs BTW.

Got me a 1993 Cadillac "Sixties Special". Top of the line in the day. Only got it for 2500. Pretty good deal.

WHY?

I'm not up to speed with the American tech talk. Am I right in thinking that a "hemi" engine is one that has a hemispherical combustion chamber to help creating a smooth combustion in a spherical environment in order to avoid hot spots, and encourage a nicer burn?
