    I Can Handle The Truth

    All value judgements are relative. Buy an s2000, drive it for a month, then supercharge it, drive it for a month, then go to your Chevrolet dealer and test a hot new Corvette. You will be out maybe 2-3K in the end, but you will know how you want to spend your 55K.

    Alright old car aficionado's - name the 2 cars on the right...

    Far right looks like a 59-60 Brougham, maybe a couple hundred? The convertible looks couple years older?

    To the owner of that Murci in Boca...

    Hugh got my vote! To bad he isn't eligible until 2026 - that stupid age restriction thingy in Article II.

    Next Acura NSX Has Ferrari F430 in Its Sights

    I would be very disappointed in Honda if they were to sacrifice performance and handling for horsepower. I will pay for die-cast copper rotors, I will not pay for elephantine cylinders and all their baggage. If it is horsepower you are searching for in your mirror, maybe you should look at...

    What is your worst and best cop story?

    Best - Early 70's Colorado, driving up a winding canyon in an Alfa Berlina. Having a *animated conversation* with my mother-in-law when the state trooper turned on his siren. He asked me to step out of the car and walk back to his vehicle. I asked him if I had been speeding. He replied...

    Problems at work maybe?

    Late now: will follow up tomorrow (during work :biggrin: ) "F**king idiot": No problem, may I quote it as my signature line? Options adjustment: The S-1 has granularity to individual option level? Weird! Milken: PM sent.

    So many scamers on ebay

    What is interesting about the recent scams like this is that they are using legitimate ebay accounts as the seller. They must have hacked a bunch of ebay accounts.

    Problems at work maybe?

    "F**king idiot"? :eek: No it's just MindRetch :tongue: - Did you expect comprehensive analysis in an off-topic forum? The Cross Pen of Manson, OH obviously feels he got screwed. Maybe he did; the world ain't fair, sometimes it is downright crooked. Certainly the company is thinly...

    Who's city has gone smokeless?

    Wiz, in the spirit of courtesy, I will not smoke another cigarette until you take your next drink. Further I shall not get closer than 4 ft from a stripper, will stay under 75 mph in Montana, and promise to not invade Korea or bomb Iranian "power plants". I will even forswear the "menu"...

    Problems at work maybe?

    In March 1998, a management team supported by JLL Partners, a private investment firm with committed capital of $2.2 billion, acquired Builders' Supply & Lumber Company. Now a holding company is formed and - "On February 11, 2005 we entered into a $350.0 million senior secured credit facility...

    Motor Trend best 50 cars

    I was spoilt, learned to drive in that 55 Century, my father's Buick:biggrin: . Thought that was a wonderful car - guess a kid never realizes how great. But the top speed was around 135 (we had these well-maintained, flat, straight roads in Indiana, you know), well above what would...
