    Side Airbags

    I have been hit from the side before. This happened about 10 years ago, and it was my fault, I phased out and went through a red light and a pickup hit me on the passenger side, nobody was sitting in it. It dented in the frame about 8 inches. Truck was probably doing only 10 mph at the time...

    Side Airbags

    I had a hard time deciding on this one or not. I ended up putting them in on assumption that Murphey's Law. If I spent the $300 on them, I'll never bit hit from the side and they will never actually save my life or prevent serious injury. If I didn't, then as soon as I drove the car some...

    Will any color be discontinued?

    I just placed an order for this car color today. I saw one on the lot and the color is pretty cool. The only concern I have deep in the recesses of my male brain is that I hope it doesn't raise any gaydars. Better yet... how about making the color names based on the homeland security...

    Will any color be discontinued?

    When I was getting my MBA, one of the proffessors who was discussing data mining said that one of his students who was connected with one of the two industries I'm about to discuss had found a positive correlation in... The color of women's lingerie follows or precedes a trend in sales of...

    Where are the mustangs being built?

    Might it make sense to take delivery at the factory to save the destination charge? Then you get to break it in on that long drive home.

    What if it wern't what it is?

    Different strokes for different folks. I like the retro style. However it's not the only reason to buy. After all, I didn't run out and buy a PT Cruiser. I'm closer to B. I like that it has power and is afordable. Used '04 GTOs are pricing about that of the 05 Mustangs, which put them...

    05 Mustang WITH flowmasters!! Pics AND video inside!!

    I'm ignorant. Are these suppose to improve performance or just make the car sound like it's got a bad case of flatulence.

    Alright...fess-up! Who are you trying to impress??

    I've heard about this with other cars. Porsche owners casually lift their fingers off the wheel and acknowledge each other in a cool but distinct glance as they drive by each other on the road. They call it the porsche wave or something like that. I personally have a cavalier, and we just...

    Spolier or not to spoiler?

    My opinion is this... Spoilers officially jumped the shark when they put one on a VW Beattle Turbo and the STI's spoiler rose about 6 inches above the roof of the car. I want slick, sleek, and fast. **** the fluff bullcrap. No lines or painted on fire (look, if I have flames coming from...

    $3500 "market value adjustment

    Thanks for the info. I'm in the western burbs and I'm waiting to test drive a car. If I like it, and once my AQHA membership goes through I'm going to make an offer. If they reject it then fine, as I'll tell the salesmen at each of the nearest locations.. at the end of every month I'll call...

    Drove a 05 for 28 miles - and got paid for it!

    Good god folks... ... I'm a guy. I don't know the difference between teal, lime green, aqua, and navy. If you do, hand in your official guy membership card. Getting paid $150 for participating in a 3 hour focus group is not unusual. I work in IT and have participated in a few in and out...

    I'm kinda leaning towards gettin the '05, but..

    I'll do car shopping more this spring. If I do place the order on May 1st, do they require the full downpayment then or is that on delivery? I would be kinda pissed to have any cash tied up for 6 months waiting for delivery.
