Dude, take a chill pill. All I meant was that most people buy cars with the base engine and the cop cars usually have the higher performance versions. And in the past sometimes they used engines that typically didn’t go on that model of car (like putting a Camaro engine in a Malibu).

Yeah, um, I can see how you can easily mistake the two.

The Golf was to marketed as the Rabbit. Simple Predator to Prey transition...

Aftermarket oilpan +5HP

Me too. I suggest we don these based on the other comments.

I’m going to be the dissenter here. I think it looks great!

That’s one thing I love about the Volt. It can also run air conditioning and heat without running the engine.

Nah, this looks more like Phil’s work.

Maybe it was going down hill.

Good story! We should meet up sometime to discuss this further. You know, for fun.

Tell me more!

The police aren’t the only people who can catch you doing something. And they can’t always prove their case when they were. It’s almost like the world isn’t binary.

Buick Regal GS. Cheap, cheap to tune, can run a 1/4 mile in 13 seconds (12 if you push it.) and all with a full leather interior and super cushy ride.

I can attest that the GM SUV Trio are more on the side of its normally a one to two owners and families have kept it because it the family road trip car and its not worth getting anything else as a new base Tahoe starts at $50K.

So - no, I didn’t drive much (~11 miles per work day and a few drives on weekends).

1st Gen Dodge Neon (‘95-’99). No, it didn’t have the build quality of the Civic or Corolla, and it had a touch of the chic car stigma. But its stock performance compared to other compact cars of the late 90's was unparalleled. The base model had rack and pinion steering, independent suspension, and an engine that was…

YES! Correct answer. Blame it on Fast & Furious franchise that the 3000GT VR4 isn’t valued higher. It never appeared (except on a cut-off scene available in DVD & it was wearing a hideous body kit) Had Dom or one of the gang drove one, it would cost the same as MK IV Toyota Supra.

3000GT. It was getting towards the end of it’s life span, and even outlived some of the more legendary rides that were overnighted from Japan like the 300ZX and RX-7, and yet, it never got the love it deserved, always being made fun of for being overweight, and as large as a Sherman tank despite it’s at the time…

Insert the Pontiac Fiero.
