Both cars are awesome, doubt you would regret either one Funny, one of my dream cars is an 11-14 GT convertible, I'll get there someday, but like you, gonna do what I gotta do atm, no regrets

True, though like the 90s, as there's something about an older car you can't get in a modern one, and just more easier to do DIY stuff to, even something as inane as this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XITzHV1OPX4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ve1bKckJt4 Of course, if I find a MR2 that's solid, thats also part gonna be considered as well. Gonna test drive around July, see which one suits me

Dropped my budget down to $7-8k max, so deciding between a Miata and TJ, as I already got a Truck and Sedan. Which would you go for now

First of all, thanks for replying and I should of specified, putting around $6k down on something. Had an Ecoboost Mustang, but as I said, daily a Ram, so while the trucks heavy, still a Hemi V8. Camaro would be ideal as a Convertible, and of course, Challenger might not be as agile as the other two muscles, but it's got the Charisma and personality the other two lack. Also forgot to say, I keep my vehicles for a long time (Mustangs a different story, needed a truck), so whatever the weekend toy is, want it to last and also be able to go on occasional road trips while having potential for good power. How was your new year's btw ykX?

First of all, happy new years everyone! Hope you're all doing well As the title says, time for something new! Already got a '19 Ram for a Daily (I'll upload the pics in a bit), so I don't need my A4, as while it's lighter and more nimble, I've had it for almost 6 years and short of a Big Turbo and center/rear diff's, that's basically it. Going to sell it, then use the $$$ towards another project car, but which one, as I can either replicate one of my own one's as seen here or go for something else. Narrowed it down to a few simple things: RWD Manual Coupe or Convertible 280whp min. NA (FI down the line) And off the top of my head: E46/92 M3 S197 5.0 GT (Had a S550, like the looks of the S197 better) 350/70z Challenger (392) 6th Gen Camaro SS Obviously there's a few I can't think of, and also looking anyone who has experiences with any of the above to chime in, say "I had X, drove Y for a bit and then there was Z, here's what you need to know" Thanks in advance! Zane

I'm actually gonna post my own thread about that in a minute, more what do you guys think All I know is it has to start where my A4 current is, 280whp and needs to be manual, caveats being real light weight

So, anyone read it, any thoughts or comments?

Thanks, though that's not me who drew it, it's my artist, Pipin: https://www.facebook.com/TheArtPageOfPipinTobing/?ref=page_internal I simply wrote the story, actually came about when I wanted to do a crew scene for the Rival crew, then he said lets draw the girls and I basically decided why not write a comic out of it instead

If ya have to take it down, at least delete the post instead of the whole thread Meanwhile, a scene from the main story (That hasn't been written yet)

Thanks guys, I appreciate it! Hopefully ya shared the links and buy an issue, any questions, comments or feedback are definitely welcomed! Yeah, love 'em, wrote that it's a LS3 swap as well Welcome, thank you for commenting Oh, the whole series is gonna be interesting, trust me. Like I said, this is the two minute preview with the girls from the rival crew

This issue is "Girls Night", it's essentially the 2 minute short to give a taste of whats to come, takes place during the middle of summer, when the stories already in full swing. "It's Saturday night in the middle of summer and two of the girls from the South Side Ninja's had their dates cancel on them, so they figured why not go race around the city? A short story and a glimpse of what's to come later." I'd appreciate it if you bought an issue, gave me some feed backand shared the link on your social medias and stuff. Thanks for taking a look, have a great day! Rogue

Yeah, they should all return, even the kappa's. Don't get me wrong, I drove a non turbo manual solstice, and besides feeling like I was in a bathtub (I'm 5'9), I noticed parts from my old H3. Still, even if they just released them as was with minimal updates and "Solely for track purposes only" (To justify no real frills in them), they'd sell Which of the 3 GM brands would get it, and what would they call it? I only saw it at the NY Autoshow once, that's about it

Wow, did I create a fire storm Lemme take the time to actually read what was said and reply to it, though next time around, while I'll make my point, won't be as blunt

I'm not gonna lie, that's pretty damn sexy

You always wanted to drive. EVERYONE has that one car they've either seen, read about, knew someone had (Personally or at the office complex/on the block/etc.) that they've always wanted to drive and experience, but haven't yet for whatever reason (Like dealers not letting you unless you're actually gonna buy it) Got a lot of cars, but to keep it simple, gonna list... Mk2 TT RS! Even before I owned a Mk1 225 Roadster, even before I drove a mk2 3.2 and was disappointed with it's jelly soft clutch, always loved this beast and would love to own one! While I'm new here, should be picked up on I'm a manual guy, so it's Mk2 or Bust, even if Mk3 is supposedly better That's my One car, how about you?

Good news: You just won the lottery

Be nice to see a new Trans AM, and a revived Solstice What I say we need is a Compact pickup that can be fully loaded, 4x4 AND offer manual! If Toyota can do it, why can't everyone else?

S2000 definitely needs to come back, idc if they offer a 10spd so long as it's also available with a traditional 6 spd Personal coupes to compete with the A5 would be nice, and now that the domestic makers make quality products, do it right and it'll compete (Especially with all those Real People, not Actors ads) Chrysler definitely needs some fresh new blood, so what can they make that's fun...

And I'm the guy who loves building tuners and convertibles, sometimes both. Also, ya only live once, so migbt as well enjoy it. Who said they have to be a great success story, just throw an affordable bone to the masses is all So, what would you bring back, or did you just point out what everyone knew?

Actually, rereading this, gonna change my answer Because Daytona Shelby Z sounds like a badass car

I figure there are many cars that we all can agree on or at least personally feel never got the chance to live, that were cancelled when they were nice and could of been reconfigured rather than discarded. Of course, it's easy to say "Oh, bring back X and call it a day", I'm gonna up the ante a bit and ask what should be done, and to start, gonna bring in the American Roadsters from our favorite General: The Kappa twins themselves! Now, I understand the platform costed them $$$, and it wasn't exactly a Miata slayer, but I feel like now, people are starting to notice them again and they did have potential, whether it'd be engine swaps: or general tuning: I know, I know, tons of videos and pictures, but just showing you what it could do. Now, what's stopping GM from bringing one back as a Chevy, the bowtie wouldn't seem out of place, or if they wanted to help the other brands out, as a Buick or Cadillac? They can find ways to keep it under 3000lbs (And with all the new stuff), Roadster or Targa Offer a 6spd manual/8spd Auto and offer a 2.0t ecotec, 3.6 and for the special editions, (Detuned) 6.2 LT1 To offset costs, could charge a bit of a premium or they could keep it simple and offer solely the ecotec (But same trans options) Feel someone here could come tweak and edit the twins into one design with modern elements if they wanna illustrate what could be done and add any of the 3 current badges of their choice, and sure if marketed correctly, it could do well, especially since whoever GM targets, they usually beat (CTS-V, Corvette, Camaro, Regal [http://www.motortrend.com/cars/buick/regal/2018/2018-buick-regal-tourx-vs-2018-subaru-outback-3-6r-vs-2018-volkswagen-golf-alltrack/], etc.) Obviously not suggesting it'll happen, but hey, that's the point of this thread right? Lemme know whatcha think and whatcha choose, and enjoy!

Depends on where ya get your news from, but enough politics for now

anyway... gonna move on from the alternative fuel sources, that's gonna sour things between us all here

Problem is, the inmates are running the asylum in Cali. Gonna cut most of the politics out, but simply put, there's a reason for the mass exodus basically. If you removed the illegals, implemented voter ID and didn't have radical judges overruling the consent of the govern, then I'd believe the state truly knew best (And the inmates would be put back in their cells) It truly is, bro, it truly is

Not gonna pretend to know when that was, mind filling me in, chief?
