Any mention of oil pressure?

Sounds like a good idea to me. Since when have lightness and high horsepower been a bad idea?

That’s a hell of an investment for only a two year run but sure I’ll be a sandwich on it.

Nah, they’ll make them in volume. Early on they’ll be expensive but they’ll be as common as an STI in a few years. Use protection kids.

Is it just the hood?

Mid west is all about the stripper base truck. You can find quite a few with the diesel. We don’t pay crazy prices for them (or trucks in general) like people in the South. Even as far north as TN truck prices were crazy.

Every time you ask he adds a zero, eventually you get what you want.

Every dealer is pretty much sold out. My Dealer in Birmingham MI only has one left. They said they have no idea on when the non launch editions will land.

It like it, but not $75,000 like it. At ~$55,000 base it’s reasonable compared to a Corvette.

The wheel openings are too large, it looks catroonish.

You’re just paper racing. I’ve driven most of the high performance cars in that generation, my good friend owned a Corvette dealership, and had an affinity for German and Italian makes. The C5 is very lopsided as an overall package.

First of all Armor All is the devil. Second of all the ergonomics and seat fit of that BMW are vastly superior to a C5. It has normal sized switch gear and it’s not all borrowed from a Cavalier.

I worked next to a guy who designed crash structures so I learned a bit from him. This is an absolutely terrible idea.

For any US car, the Germans and Japanese had none of this garbage.

Every GM was awful in that era. compared to an entry level Audi they were 15 years behind. it’s like grey and vinyl were the only thing they knew how to use.

With is why 2 stroke is better than 4 stroke it’s that much closer to being powered by pure explosions which is rockets.

You’re no fun.

Approach and departure angles what???

This would be a turd off road and you know it.

The drop top complexity is not worth the cost. Have you looked into what it takes to repair one of those in a BMW/Benz? T tops like in the Corvette or put the windows down like a normal person. I owned an E30 convertible for a stint I “get it”.

I bought the damn car, I’ll do what I want!

Get a filthy BJ’er from a lady I hardly know in the car and it’s fine, I have a snack and I’m suddenly a heathen.
