$500 to fix bad paint? Wow. You must know some mexicans or something.

Ironically, this is the first car from GM I have truly lusted after, since I was born in 1980. After decades of mediocrity, they finally produce something interesting that combines performance, luxury, utility, and exclusivity. I want one. SO BAD. But unfortunately, I don't have that kind of scratch. This is an…

K, I'll call you next time I'm driving through the rockies. Good luck keeping up, even while using twice the fuel.

Enkei Shoguns are cooler. Here's a set on my old svx:

The big chunky metal thing is counterbalanced by the thick crescent shapped thing on the opposite side.

Arelli Assassyn wheels are the ugliest fucking wheels in history. If Iwere a billionaire I would buy every set and melt them down.

They were cheaper. :P

I'd like to see you back that up with stats. I can back up my point of view; when Montana eliminated it's daytime speed limit, the deathrate dropped to an ALL TIME LOW. See Montana Speed Limit paradox. Although people were driving much faster, they were paying attention and thus, reducing accidents.

I tow mine every weekend. With my wagon. Works fine.

How exactly does one appreciate the engineering of a fairly archaic vehicle with fairly archaic suspension, with terrible performance in acceleration, braking, and handling? I appreciate great engineering, which is why I like Le Mans and F1. The engineering is insane... but nowhere have I ever been impressed by the…

It's not practicality, it's called driving experience. When I'm not towing, I have 300hp, quattro, heated recaros in the front, heated seats in the back, a great stereo, a manual transmission, a top end of over 150, and the ability to shove 5 people + ski gear for ski trips, or shove enough crap into it for a cross…

Nope. And I haven't needed to tow anything bigger than my 2400lb boat+ trailer or trailer + furniture or trailer + landscaping material combos. Neither do most people.

It doesn't matter if they run clean if they're getting 8mpg.

Sure. But how many people tow crap like that? Not any I know. I know lots of people who have trucks, and the biggest thing they tow is a generic family runabout, or a couple snowmobiles, both of which can be done by a car JUST fine, with more comfort, safety, and better mpg. I don't care if people are actually…

I don't tow 6,000lbs. But most people with trucks don't either. OOoo an alumacraft? Wowweee that is towed by, hey look, a Ford F Teen Thousand. Oooo look a stupid 17' bayliner? G golly, I need mah pickemup truck or SUV to tow dat dar thing. The fact is you fucking DON'T. Class II hitches are available for…

My econobox? Which one? My Porsche 911? Or my Audi S6 Avant with Brembo 4 piston calipers? Oh, you must mean my VW Golf with cross drilled rotors and hawk HPS pads all around. Trucks are lame; and you do NOT need one to tow things:

Interesting. By that rational, can I drive 85mph instead of 65, cuz I want to? Oh, you say I'm endangering others? Interesting, because I think an 8000lb piece of shit that is slow, handles poorly, and can't stop well is endangering others. It's also ruining the environment, which is endangering others. So how…

Remove the word ford. All truck drivers are homophobic assholes that hate the environment that their supposed god created, and think riding a bicycle is "fer fags".
