^ Audi Q7 with V12 Diesel … 500 hp/738 lb-ft tq mated to a six speed automatic.
is that street legal?
You want girls? Buy another car. No matter how much money you put into the 240, when a guy in a 350Z drives by, the sluts will look in his direction.
Speaking of the 350Z, I’m in the process of buying one. Kinda. I’m up and down about it cause it doesn’t drive to well in the rain, and forget about snow (I live in NYC). So it’s between the Z and a Audi TT AWD right now. Eh, I dunno.
um Romie, is that you in your avatar? Do you go by any other aliases? Someone in a diff gaming community told me that was him, at least IIRC.
Z > TT, no contest.
2002 Altima or 2001 Acura 3.2 TL?
nice 240 coupe>>>>>>>>>>ugly pice of crap 350. man it’s amazing what crap car companies puch these days, and how willing people are to indulge them. what happend to good ol boxes!
I thought we banned all car threads on SRK
They always end up in ricer flamewars.
We come to SRK for video games, not cars.
AGREED. wtf is this thread now, a car mod deal?
um, this is GD? …if you don’t like it, dont post.
3.2TLs are hot Pheonix
Wow nice to see this back :wonder
And yeah - Z > TT IMO but if we’re talking about a hoecatcher…
G35 > Z > TT.
i didnt ever think about if the chicks would dig the analog clock, i know i f’n hated it.
Honestly, you’d probably be payin between 4 & 10G’s where I’m at, out here, they sell 300ZX’s cheaper than those sometimes. they got a lotta GSR integras for sale though. But yea, wherever you are differs man.
Yeah, that’s me, and this is the only gaming forum I come to, so someone lied to you.
G35… I like it, but I don’t need 4 seats.
I came across a 93 RX-7 a friend of a friend was selling. 15K, street ported motor, stock turbos, SMIC, knock sensor, new bushings, boost controller, and some small stuff here and there. The outside is stock, which I like. I might get that. My friend has some spare Efini piping and silicon hoses laying around in his garage, so I might put in some wrench time to make it more reliable.
There was another one for 20k in the area but it has a bunch of mods, which I hate, cause I’d rather do the work myself.
Oh, and if any of you guys get a chance, go to this:

A bunch of the guys that work there were staying at the hotel I work, and invited me. They let you drive the SRT (except the Viper) around a small track. They have the Charger SRT, Crossfire SRT, 300C SRT, Magnum SRT, and pretty much all the new cars Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler is coming out with. There’s also a small drift show with a Viper and some truck.It was fun. The instructor let you go all out on the small track.
I seem to be in a situation and could use some advice. This is just a vague pipe dream I had today and will pursue it once I get more details/progress.
So I was at work and saw this 1960s cadillac just sitting out there. I thought it was my boss’s or one of my coworker’s, but apparently it belonged to an old partner that skipped out on them. They haven’t heard from him in 5 years or so and the car hasn’t been ran for probably 3-5 years. They have no idea where he went. All they know is that it was a car that his father passed on to him.
Long story short I was thinking about doing something with this situation. I’m not a car enthusiast by any means, but with the lack of entertainment I can do at the moment this seemed like something of interest. From what I gathered the interior is somewhat new (perhaps he was taking care of it but then said fuck it?), the frame could use a little bit of sanding and paint, the tires could use some replacement, and the windows/mirrors are surprisingly clean. I can’t open the hood to get a good look at the interior, and even if I did I wouldn’t know what the heck I am looking at.
So SRK I was wondering the following:
-Obviously I can’t just steal the car. However nobody seems to know how to get in contact with the owner. Is there some kind of legal loophole I can go through to obtain the title and keys to this car?
-If I managed to obtain the car, what are the first things I should be looking for to decide if it’s even worth repairing/restoring the car?
-Are there any big red flags about cadillacs I should be concerned about? I heard that they consume a lot of gas but if I’m replacing some parts won’t that change?
If I am way over my head and shouldn’t even bother learning/obtaining this car then I will drop it without any debate. Like I said, it’s a pipe dream.
Anyone? Tried car forums but I’m really overwhelmed by their vocabulary.
my caddy experience is basically zero but always the first step I would take is in this situation definitely take the car to a mechanic you know…
Do you have any friends who are good in the mechanic area? Basically you want someone who won’t lie to you so that you consider a friend.
As far as legal loophole…hell if I know, I’m surprised it hasn’t been towed.
