Potentially the longest thread in history...

Re: Today I have...

I always wanted a 1970-1972 'Cuda (Plymouth's version of the Challenger with more chrome) with a 442 6-pack.

I dunno why, just always have. I wouldn't mind one of the new ones, though. Like PP I am not nuts about the "boxy" body style but they do seem to capture the essence of the originals.

My favorite has always been the 70-71 Challenger T/A with the 340 six pack. it isn't as powerful as the more well known 440 six pack or 426 hemi version but is interesting because it is so much rarer. Sadly one in good condition is worth about $80k. :(






irony much? :grin:
I hate car talk with a passion, srsly I don't CARE if you wanna get excited over the way they've painted a bit of metal so it's shiny :p I know you could talk for days about why it's definitely a good thing if your car can go zero to two thousand mph in 1.21 nanoseconds. But AAAAUUUUGGGGGHHHHH

Yeah, a bit ironic but at least I proved her point.

Tbh though talking about cars is no different than talking about upgrading and overclocking pc's. plus when you consider how much money the average person has tied up in their vehicles it's only natural that they would take some interest in them.

They're quite nice, actually.

There is one car i would die for, i think it's amazing.

Though i guess dieing to receive a car has little logical sense seeing as i would never be able to appreciate it.



People that don't like talking about cars.. well thats just your problem ;) I don't really understand how you can't be interested. You have to use them every day and your livelihood depends on them, and they cost a fortune to buy, look after and run.

Everyone secretly cares about cars. If i suddenly swapped Souls car for this, i think he'd care:

Same, I'm not a car person ;)

My car, though mine is in much worse condition

I downloaded the latest version of Flash today and it force fed Chrome on me. When Flash was done installing I clicked abort before Chrome could be installed. Kinda annoying that they are doing that now.

Did you download flash from adobe or did a box just pop up saying flash update available? I just get flash through firefox's plugin finder and no chrome issues. However I already have chrome installed at my own choice. That is anti competitive just like back in the day when microsoft force fed us IE and there was no option to actually remove it and not use it in some scenarios.
 
Re: Today I have...

Here is mine (sort of). Mine is champagne colored but in much, much worse shape. The driver's side front fender and hood are black primed and rusting, the front bumper is unpainted and busted up a bit, both door as scraped/dented, and it has a softbal sized dent in the driver's side quarter panel at the tail light where my daughter backed into it.
