I'm working on it, I spent my mod funds on my wife for christmas. Exhuast and tint are coming this month though.

 

Maybe if that BMW didnt have such..ah...um..wheels?

 

my suit with leather patches? hehe
thank you, but no.

Merc is for senior citizens, boring desing, boring car (dont including SLR)...very safe tough.
Beemer is like an exec who dont want to behave properly...always make an extra effort to give you thrills, newer know if he is limousine or sport car (ok, Alpine editions are gods work)
Audi... is like tough german scientist who hates MB and BMW, and likes to show off thru technical breakthru ..Vorsprung durch technic..hehe , fast, very safe but in design very very teutonic....hartless (but not in past, I miss Ur quattro)

Maybe, best overall pic about teutonic style and idea is Porsche 911, I had Carrera 2 93'..and it was all you ever wanted in a car (well, if you had another for rest of the family or you were single), eternal style, great handling, everday car for going to mall or just a morning spin on track... well, xpensive tough

Best design is in Italy..... super sexy, slick ...Alfa's, Lancia's, Scuderia... etc.
those slick italians know how to design for eternity (franch are hanging, but lack that devilish smile after Citroen DS), but lack in workmanship...details.. I liked them..even my Alfa 33 with 1.3 engine who was tough as rock... and had times when she didnt want to drive as it was rainign and electrnic was buffled, but i loved her,or Lancia delta integrale 16v..best rally car ever...better handling then any Audi with quattro ... ah..good times...plastic was crap, but recaros and engine was mmm

Asians are like germans but a blind ones...no design (ok, Honda NSX was pretty cool, Subaru SVX, Skyline gtr ..oh well), but very very dependable cars , you can be certain not to be left on road with them

I can understand any car owner, from that one who bought small Kia as first car, or he cant afford bigger one to slicker with Lambo,
that glow of proudness is something we all crave...we all love our cars and thats most important

every car industry has some specifics which i love about them.. but in the end you make choice by your options.

 

The Japanese reliability thing is BS. My lexus was a POS, as were my brother's 2 honda's.

 

cmon, I was thinking to buy Lexus 430, ugly car with lots of nice gadgets. :-)

 

I like Audi's because it's really hard to pull off a flat spin in the snow w/o quattro.

 

well then I am sorry to disappoint you but I love BMW's, in all honesty my dream after school garage is this Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel, E30 325 with a LS7 or s52 swap, Audi Quattro setup to destroy small children (ie. 600+ AWHP), and a newer (ie, b7/b8) S4 avant.

 

Why would you disgrace an LS7 by putting it in a BMW?

 

maybe because it would be ridiculous and why not. I've seen it done before so why not do it again... I also might go for a Hemi though because I love Mopar

 

Oh now your ARE disgracing an engine.. Shame on you!

Although, a Hemi would be an improvement
