    NSX vs M5

    i'm definately the 'odd duck' here, but i bought the jag xjr and havent looked back. (04 xjr). new alum construction with 400 hp/tq makes for a really nice rocket sedan. not quite bmw handling, but closer than you might think. (and much better than the several mercedes i drove).

    Interest only mortgage question

    interest only products have recently created a lot of 'interest' among borrowers. Unfortunately, most potential borrowers are considering 'interest only' products from a monthly payment perspective. I really appreciate the fact that you are considering this option from a more advanced...

    New Z06 info

    vettes quality has improved considerably. I think if we played 'what if', the vette, based upon performance, would be an exotic. IF they werent mass producing the damn things. The vettes numbers are incredible, but the commonality of the car diminishes the 'value' as something special.

    What did you get for Christmas????

    Hey Len, how are you? Merry xmas. My kids had a wonderful xmas. Rescue heroes stuff for my 4yr old and the teaparty set(chairs/table/highchair & tea set) for my 2 yr old. There were other gifts, but that was the highlight of our day. My wife got the toyo minivan she wanted earlier this...

    Selling my NSX for a sports sedan

    i'm pretty smitten with my 04xjr (jag). The base xj 04 with the new all alum platform is purchaseable in high 50's. To get comparable performance, however, you need the xjr which is significantly more expensive. might want to consider the new volvo s60r. That thing is all wheel drive...

    Really angry at Honda right now.

    Interesting. Glad i went with the toyo instead of the honda with our new van we bought last week. AWD was the biggest difference, and i had also heard that honda trannys had some issues on the odyssey.... Too bad we couldn't go honda, but i really want this fam van to last a very long time...

    Holy Crap Man

    That picture IS PRICELESS!!! Hope 'I'm there' someday. Expect the same expression from my wife. Beautiful car, nice choice. Small detail, but i really like the wheels on 'er too. Congrats to Pops!! I hope he 'really' drives it. This is a purist's car made for the track...

    Need New Minivan

    no doubt the honda odyssey is exceptional as well. Gotta say though, honda missed the boat on AWD. That pushed me over to the toyo. When youre giving up a nice awd sportute to get a minivan, it is nice to know youre not giving up AWD. If the odyssey had AWD, i would have given up toyos laser...

    Need New Minivan

    glad to hear honda fixed the trans for 05. Picked up the sienna yesterday. I think you are right, these are both great vans, tough choice. The toyo was a little more expensive. Fully loaded the sticker was 41k, including the xle with HO package. Navi works good, really like the backup cam...

    Ken lost !!!!!!!!!

    now that Ken thing IS funny. My uncle Ken, Very bright--but antisocial hillbilly. My father in law Ken, Very Very bright. Our Nsxtasy--we all know he's bright. I cant think of a stupid ken i've met. Except for Barbie's Ken. But he never took the iq test, so who knows.

    Need New Minivan

    Yeah, you are right. The new sienna does have sliding rear windows up/down---brand new for 05. The only thing i think i might be missing is the function where you can reverse the rear seat and do the tailgate thing!! Thanks for all the input. I'm doing the toyo. The awd and honda's tranny...

    Need New Minivan

    good info!! Thanks for the input. I'm leaning towards the toyo, mostly due to awd and stronger overall tranny. Both seem pretty well matched....
