That surprised me...

Average, my ass. The Nitro's dash could give plastic burn if rub my arm on it or touch it the wrong way. Pitifully piss poor plastics. My Grand Am has better plastics and I'm not exaggerating. Anyways, this new Liberty looks good. It's certainly an improvement over the old one and definitely carries the look better than the Commander, but then again, it's basically the same look. Either way, it looks good.

Preview: 2008 Nissan Titan, Armada and Pathfinder
Cory Wolfe replied to Variance's topic in Chicago Auto Show (CAS)
The interiors are much, much better... Still ugly on the outside, though. -
I like it and I like the Malibu. Certain aspects of each, I like over the other. I like the Epica's interior more (the Malibu's center stack is typically horrible), and the exterior only slightly more (it's cleaner, tighter, and sportier than the Malibu's). I still appreciate the uniqueness of the Malibu, though (the Epica looks good, but is derivative). The mechanicals, however, the Malibu easily beats the Epica. The idea of an inline 6 is cool, but if the last one is any indication, it's severely underpowered.

Hmm... But whatever... Go with an ugly little Mustang... Your loss.

Congrats on your holy birthday, Sir.

I was up since 5am that day... I was tired... too. No comment.

He's surprisingly hot. Odd. I think he needs to trim himself, though. Like me. Being that harry is bad. Course... if I had a body like his, maybe my opinion would change.

I must agree with those saying Dodge is a performance brand. It's a slightly more exciting Chevy... Both have performance variants of their basic consumer cars as well as a few performance models. They have performance, but are not a performance brand in the least. And no, Pontiac isn't either if you were going to try that with me. Performance brands are strictly performance, if you ask me. Off the top of my head (some current, some past), it would include: Aston Martin, Caterham, De Tomaso, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati, McLaren, Panoz, Porsche, TVR, and Venturi. BMW and Alfa Romeo may also fit in some ways, as no matter how far downmarket they go, they're still performance oriented.

Unofficial, AAA Top Ten Most Unreliable Cars
Cory Wolfe replied to Delta Force79's topic in The Lounge
Check your PMs.Anyways, they're not bald... nearly bald. And speeding in the snow? I don't think so and how you even assume that's even possible is nuts. The fastest I drive on snow covered roads is about 25 mph. I again refer you to your inbox. This had nothing to do with how well a vehicle holds up and is more evident of how I don't have $400+ to buy new ones than anything else. My Grand Am has two new tires on it. Surprising. Speaking of it, I drove from early August to late November. Do the math. As far "f@#king up my car threads" ...Name one. The only time I actually f@#ked up my car was never posted about on C&G. Again, check your inbox. -

That's what I was wondering. One must wonder how often one of those is actually something serious... -
Unofficial, AAA Top Ten Most Unreliable Cars
Cory Wolfe replied to Delta Force79's topic in The Lounge
Calling like you see it, eh? Are you f@#king blind, by any chance? First off, I've clearly said this is going by more than just one Blazer, not just the one my parents had. My uncle had one, my grandpa had two, my aunt had one, my great aunt had one, my cousing had an S10, and my grandpa has an S10. Let's count... that's eight total. My motto is: one POS, could be a lemon; two POS's, could be a coincidence; but three or more POS's, they're POS's, end of story. Each and every one of those S10/Blazers were POS's. I'm sorry, but that says alot. And none of them were beat up. They were all bought in excellent condition with low mileage, half of them were bought new. My parent's looked great and only had 40k miles when we bought it. Beat up? I don't think so. As far as how we "don't do so well in the routine maintenance dept." and "beat the piss out of vehicles," well... I have no idea where you came up with what you said about maintenace. My dad does all the maintenance on time and right in our driveway. But... out of all my family who have owned one, only my mom and my aunt drive like maniacs. However, she went through two Grand Ams and they were actually reliable. That's a vehicle with one of the worse reputations for quality. If you're telling me two different Grand Ams could hold up to her "beating the piss" out of them and a Blazer couldn't, something isn't right and again says something about the reliability of Blazers. As far as myself, the only vehicle I've been hard on is my Millenia. Even then, that's only 20% of the time I drive it and I probably maintained it better than anything you have ever laid your hands on. Call me when you open eyes, alright? -
A curiously cheap 1998 Grand Prix. Clicky A nice 5 speed GP turbo. Clicky A cheap (for its rarity, anyways) yellow 1988 Fiero with T-tops. Clicky A tempting Firebird with the 3.8L and a manual. Clicky A sweetly modded Sunfire GT... it's probably like new. Clicky

As I've said before, I like it for what it is. I like it much more than the Lucerne, too.

Except that it's false. Next Lacrosse is on Epsilon II.

Compared to the Razor, the Solstice is like sex. And not liking a roadster because it's ugly doesn't make me a true car enthusiast... how? I'd just rather have the one that doesn't look like ass.

Unofficial, AAA Top Ten Most Unreliable Cars

My personal opinion.... ...has Blazers on top of that list. Nothing compares to the one my parents owned. Everything about it was unreliable... Biggest POS ever. Same with the one my uncle had, my grandpa's S10, and other ones that were in the family. Engine and engine component problems, transmission problems, 4wd problems, electrical problems, problems with random things, and problems with being shoddy. The best thing that happened to ours was my mom flipping it and sending it to a junk yard where it deserves to be. J-bodies... Don't get me started on these. My one uncle has owned enough of them (5 or 6) and he was always coming over and using our garage to repair them. Just about each time, it was a different one. Then there's our Sunfire. The first week we owned it, it had to be taken back to the dealership twice. The one my grandma had was equally as unreliable. Not to mention the Cavalier that used to be my aunt's, was then my other grandma's, then passed through our ownership, and eventually was donated to my uncle to add to his "collection" of them. A few friends of mine have had Sunfires that left them stranded as well. Come to think of it, no one I know has owned one that wasn't unreliable. Doesn't matter if it was a Pontiac or a Chevy, coupe or sedan, 2.2L or 2.4L, auto or manual... All craptastic. A vehicle that never gets mentioned as being unreliable (atleast here, anyways) are Silverados. 4wd problems, brake problems, random things not working... All common problems with my dad's, my grandpa's, three that my one uncle has owned, and another uncle of mine's. All 2000s and newer. On the other hand, I think Grand Ams have a worse reputation than they deserve. The two my parents were more reliable than anything else they've owned. Both with the not so great 2.4L Twin Cam at that. However, mine, with the Quad4 is pretty $h!ty, but mostly due to the engine. Other than that, it just had little things that went wrong due to abuse. -
*Ignoring some of the ignorance posted* I forgot to mention Andy Dick, Dave Chapelle, and Ralphie May. I used to like Jim Carrey, Bill Maher, and Robin Williams, but much of their recent work is either annoying or just too "Hollywood" so to say.

*Ignores Sixty8* I love my indiscriminating view of drive wheels. If I were rich, I'd have just as many FWD vehicles as I would RWD and AWD ones.
