Can't say that I have. Would like to find one now. Even if it isn't running. Might make a cool electric car.

When things are going south at home, dictators flex their military muscle and/or get involved in foreign adventures to take the people's mind of their situation and rally everyone around the flag. Think Mussolini and Ethiopia.
The Ukraine? The same Ukraine that Russia signed an agreement to guarantee the territorial integrity of? That Ukraine? Be glad, and I mean super extremely on your knees to God glad, that sanctions are all that the West has the balls for. This whole thing could have ended very, very badly.
If this is your first RX8, definitely join the forums. There are some major known issues with these cars and you need to be informed.
Suspension and brake components are way more expensive for MB. And S Class suspensions are fairly complex to begin with. Definitely get it checked over. That $10 at the local chain shop for an inspection might save you some serious dollars later, or at least give you some negotiating leverage.
For me, this is the dividing line. When control of the engine became a matter for algorithms responding to inputs from sensors and not something that you did with crude instruments and experience.
Who signed off on this? How'd that meeting go? "Okay, we have a pretty good car that nobody's buying because they don't like how it looks. And an okay car that sells pretty well because it looks good. What say we take the good selling car and make it look like the poor selling car?"
I work in the auto service industry. I deal every day with people who don't know what engine they have in their car, what size tires they have, even what year or model. (And once in a while make). The average car owner doesn't know any more about their car's components and how to work on them than the average…
Had one of those twin sticks in the mid 80's, a base Plymouth Champ. Was kind of fun to drive, considering.
Here in southwestern Indiana the local specialty is brain sandwiches. They were made of beef prior to the mad cow thing, now they're pork. They taste like anything else fried in batter on a bun.
I hate shoestrings. I love GD Ritzy's burgers but won't eat there because of shoestring fries.
It does.
As I said, if you sincerely have the experience and resources to do it yourself, do it. Most people don't. There aren't sanctioned clubs for Camrys.
As someone who works in the industry, I have to dispute this as a general rule. timgray may be a great shadetree mechanic who's done his research and has some common sense, but I can't tell you how many times I've seen $150 jobs turned into $700 jobs by backyard "mechanics" who don't know what they're doing.
Just bought that one myself. Pretty happy with it for what I paid.
I'm a Tennessee alum. I'm proud of it, but we have a history of screwing over head coaches, e.g. Johnny Majors. (Needed to go but the way we did it sucked). Maybe Kiffin was just karma.
I live in Indiana, and in my experience the BMV actually works pretty well. I don't want to deal with it any more than anyone else does of course, but they've always been courteous and pretty efficient. Now we can only renew our plates online, which I frankly don't like as much as the "plate ATM" we used to have, but…
As an Indiana resident, I normally don't have too much problem with our BMV (except that you now have no choice but to renew your plates online), but this is going too far. Somebody fax the BMV a sense of humor.
