SuperWade2 Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 If I were spending something arround $30K, I would consider on of the new Pontiac G8's... I drove a Grand Prix from 1997-2003 and really liked it (had to trade in in on the Tahoe for a more "family" wagon)... The new G8 GT has a 6.0L v8, 6Spd Auto... Not sure I'd go this color, but I like the style... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How hard was it to convert to the twin turbo?? I know the convertibles didnt come factory like that, so you had to of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just took the engine and all that from a donor TT, its not particularly hard, just time and money consuming. Also, all 300zxs(z32s) came with dual exhaust, really, there is nothing in that picture you can see that indicates its a TT, you just got lucky :D If you want to see the repair of that convertible check out this link: http://www.colorado4wheel.com/content/93zxset1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Here's my dream car: Except the two I had were both British Racing Green, and that's what I would want if possible. But ... beggars can't be choosers. But it's gotta be a 390 4-speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Eagle, I assume that is a Javelin. Very cool car, and a somewhat of a sleeper IMO. I had a buddy in high school that had one. One the way to lacrosse practice one day (the fields were off campus), he just so happened to flip it after getting airborne over a small hill in the road. He lost control and it climbed up an embankment and flopped over on its roof. Fortunately all four of my friends inside got out and were fine. Can't remember what he did with the car, other than his Dad took it way from him (duh). And it had a 390. Fast. Very fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 While on a "one pick" choice I'd still stick with my 911 Turbo, along the lines of Hornbrod I have to say I've always thought it to be cool as shizzle to have a 4dr sedan that could hang with just about any 2dr sports car, at least in a stoplight drag race. With that I present the BMW M5... I think the new G8 is hot too WadeDeucy, probably because a lot of its styling cues come from BMW, who they openly are trying to take on with this car.

mvusse Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 My still favorite BMW (even though the M5 is nice) has always been the mid engine M1, of which I have actually seen one as a kid on the autobahn. We were traveling around 85mp/h towing a pop up trailer behind our Jetta Turbodiesel when it passed us. My second favorite has always been the M635CSi, which uses the same engine in a more typical front engine coupe body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Here is my dream ride. I fell in love with this body style when they came out in 96'. This just happens to be a rare TRD widebody. :drool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue XJ Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I prefer this SRT, but that could be because its in my driveway :D and this is the one that I work on and get to drive everyday :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I already own my dream car, er, truck. It just needs a few more goodies to be perfect. :D (albeit expensive goodies, like a Richmond 6 speed and a shaker hood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you on the Neon being faster, but the Caliber looks so much better than a Neon. The fuel door on the Challenger is not plastic, it is chrome plated cast aluminum. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
