  1. I can't believe the interior is that much nicer than the Solstice. Does anyone know what the exterior styling differences are between the two, other than the tailight bars?
  2. Beautiful. Nice job, Bimmer.
  3. The purple cloth and carpet need to go... :puke:
  4. Didn't Millennium Park just open?
  5. I'm on a computer at work and I'm not having any problems now. It all started a few days ago. Both computers are using the latest version of IE, though the operating systems are different. The one at home is Windows 2000 and the one at work is XP. I'll try to do a print screen when I get home.
  6. No, you'd have to use I-Drive!
  7. I posted this on another thread and was told by Northie to post it here. Most of the graphics on the site don't appear, instead I get the dreaded red 'x.' It happens to most of the pictures and all of the icons, even the smilies. Does anyone else have this problem?
  8. Rav4, last-gen Eclipse...
  9. I hate tailgaters with a passion. I start to glide whenever someone's on my ass, slowly reducing my speed until they get the hint. LLD's (left lane d****) are horrible, too.
  10. Something's screwed up with my computer/Internet. Most of the graphics on the site don't appear, instead I get the dreaded red 'x.' It happens to most of the pictures and all of the icons, even the smilies. Does anyone else have this problem?
  11. I'm really excited about the GV. I hope it does well as it appears Suzuki has done its homework. Only a few more months until the Philly autoshow.

  13. Unless it's something that is required to be done immediately, do little by little at a time. Writing a 10 page report the night before it's due is a hell of a lot harder than writing one page a day for 10 days. I crave structure in my life for some reason so I keep a mental list of all I need to do, along with a mental schedule. Time management is huge for me, along with repetition. Things that need to be done on a daily basis I do in the same order at usually the same time every day. For example, getting ready for school every day is the same thing: shower, get dressed, eat breakfast, read the newspaper, finish getting ready, out the door.
  14. I should come to the lounge more often. Some of these topics are interesting and come out of no where. Talking only about cars can get boring, I know. You guys hit the nail on the head with your comments. I know exactly how some of you feel. My biggest problem is not being able to come out and fully say "I like you." I try to make that clear through flirting, etc. I guess I need to grow some balls.
  15. Again, I agree with turby (and Harley). Why these cars aren't on the road is beyond me. The money GM would make on these vehicles is well worth the money it would take developing them. Now GM seems poised to take calculated risks and it's about damn time it did.
  16. I'm guessing they had a blind guy picking out the seat and carpeting color.
  17. Besides what I'm about to talk about and the Cuban Missile Crisis, I don't admire JFK for much. He was a big part in changing the world. At a time the U.S. was faced with a large menace who threatened its national security and hurt its morale, he made the announcement and got the ball rolling to put the U.S. and its allies back on top. What I'm referring to is Sputnik and the subsequent moon landing-response by the U.S. By putting our heads together we came away, and on top, with many things. It's about time something like this happens again, this time in the energy sector. We're dealing with a large menace(s) (oil, Islamic terrorists) who threaten our national security, hurt our morale and damage our environment. If Bush came out tomorrow and said, "In 10 years, the United States will be virtually reliant-free on oil." he could set our country on a track to become innovative, technologically advanced and great once again. Some of the tools we already have. For example, many states will reimburse or pay for the majority (about 75%) of the cost of installing solar panels on your house. That way you save on electricity, help the environment and don't support the terrorist-supporting regimes in the Middle East (if you have oil heat). Other tools we need to invent, experiment with and refine, such as a new power source for automobiles and airplanes. The solution(s) needs to be mass produced, accessible and acceptable to the public. Sure it will cost a lot and take time, but in the end we'll be much better off. It will eventually come down to this so why push back the inevitable? If we can put someone on the moon we can find another way to power our world.
  18. How I saw it, too. The SI will help the Civic lineup but the overall design of the lineup I think will drag it down. Unless the SI and other coupe versions are extremely easy to modify/rice up, I doubt it will be a hit.
  19. Noticed that, too.
  20. Did 40,000 consumers actually order a Commander or did dealerships order 40,000?
  21. No thanks.
  22. The Compass in that photo looks like rice.
  23. Another plant?
  24. Wow...I just noticed those nasty rims on that particular Civic in Viper's post. It's probably the hybrid but why the disgusting rims? My final judgements. The exterior of the coupe looks fine, it's not bad. The exterior of the sedan is horrible. The interior is disgusting across the board.
