Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 02, 2011) Well if you have any insight, we'd be interested.
Video: Poland’s Lamborghini Rival on the Road (Aug 01, 2011) Well, Patrick, this definitely beats screen doors in a submarine.
Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 01, 2011) I agree, Patrick. If an EMP bomb were set off, a car like this would be going straight to the dump. Hackz are nothing when compared to the threat of EMP.
Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 01, 2011) Nothing is perfect, but MS has the most haters around the world, and they want to hack and crack anything MS. On top of that, they do this on their spare time.
Video: Poland’s Lamborghini Rival on the Road (Aug 01, 2011) How about a reverse lambo style that extends over for a gullwing *I thought of it first!!! Patent pending.*
Video: Poland’s Lamborghini Rival on the Road (Aug 01, 2011) How about we agree that this car has GM guts.
Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 01, 2011) It's MS OS. That's wtf I'm talking about
Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 01, 2011) AV wouldn't be enough. This system will eventually come with a rescue boot with at least 20 types of anti-malware. At that point, it'll take an hour, just so you can start your ignition. The future looks bright xD
Ford Stays N’SYNC and Drops Price by $100 (Aug 01, 2011) Woohoo...it's Microsoft! Not too long before SYNC starts getting hacked into. And when people start reporting the hackz, I'll be sitting back...laughing my ass off.
Report: Toyota Prius Coupe Coming in 2014 (Aug 01, 2011) Yes, and then we can start seeing prius winning drag races...
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Aug 01, 2011) I lost respect for Clooney when he did batman: the ambiguously gay duo. (Joel Schumacher and Ang Lee should both be beaten bloody for gaying up comic books on the big screen)
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Aug 01, 2011) We give em chump change like corn meal...and we get back gem stones and metals (a plethora of variations) Yup, America screws the little guy, that's how it goes everyday.
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Aug 01, 2011) I believe that our govt is retarded for the most part... but trade with Africa is one thing our govt is good at. We have full access to tap into their natural resources (which is more abundant than ours)
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Aug 01, 2011) Jason, I don't think Shell, BP, or OPEC, etc etc would ever consider alternative fuel. Seriously guys, watch "GasHole". That documentary will open your eyes, if not edify your conspiracy theories (like mine)
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Aug 01, 2011) You and everyone akin to such paranoia, might as well stay away from propane and methane powered cars as well. FYI, those are pressurized as well. Unless batteries become biodegradable...I will forever be against EV!!
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Jul 31, 2011) I'm not qualified like David (who's an engineer) but I'm pretty sure that pressurizing hydrogen doesn't make it a rolling H-bomb. Seriously, come on! All these paranoid comments sound like anti-propaganda scare tactics
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Jul 31, 2011) Nathan is the man! It's funny how people are still clueless about hydrogen technology. (case & point with Jonathan)
Happy 35th Birthday Ford Fiesta (Jul 31, 2011) If any guy told me that his car's color was fashionista...I'd slap the taste out his mouth and tell him to grow a pair!!
Report: Toyota Prius Coupe Coming in 2014 (Jul 31, 2011) Perhaps I'll just post it on facebook
Baby, You Can Drive My Car: George Harrison’s Ferrari Up For Sale (Jul 31, 2011) Or just a straight Harrison fan. Some people (ie myself) think he was the most well rounded of the 4.
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 31, 2011) Having no choice but to go to the dumbass dealership mechanics is bad business. Screw Nissan! Real men work on their cars for basic maint. We dont need some idiots at dealerships.
Wilt Thou Be Lord Of The Whole World? (Jul 31, 2011) I am a big advocate for biodiesel. But hydrogen & methane make great alternatives as well. Screw EVs, corn(ethanol), and algae! Their a waste of my tax dollars. Has anyone watched that documentary "GasHole"?
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 30, 2011) You can't even do something as simple as clean the throttle body, without having to pay the dumbass dealership to reset the sensors for you. That's why I got rid of my old murano.
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 30, 2011) The problem is, the frontier is a Nissan. I hate Nissans and how your literally forced to go to the dealership for service, because of how their cars are programmed.
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 30, 2011) Ford made a bad mistake by killing the ranger.
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 30, 2011) The frontier IS a better mid-truck, but the Tacoma outsells it all the time. But whatevz...the only Toyota truck I like, isn't sold in the states.
Toyota Tacoma Set for Fall Refreshing (Jul 30, 2011) You want more young customers?!? Easy solution: bring the Hilux to the US
570hp for the Dodge Charger, Challenger SRT8 in 2012 (Jul 29, 2011) I'll always be bothered with the 4 doors. Let me put this in perspective: Imagine if the Cuda was reloaded as a 4-door. Wouldn't that bother you? That's my logic.
570hp for the Dodge Charger, Challenger SRT8 in 2012 (Jul 29, 2011) Holden engineered the commodore(G8) as a direct competitor to the falcon. Does dodge have a niche in Australia anyway? I think it's just HSV vs FPV over there.
570hp for the Dodge Charger, Challenger SRT8 in 2012 (Jul 29, 2011) Drop all the science you want, but ultimately, it all comes down to preference.
Video: 2013 Lexus GS Sedan Going Diesel (Jul 29, 2011) The back looks Bmer & the front resembles Audi. This looks like a German mashup
Vilner Gives Smart Tuning To The Scion iQ (Jul 29, 2011) It's the IQ...pronounced: "ick" So anyway, where's the "tuning"??? Seriously...
Unique of the Week: 1980 Bradley GT II Electric Car (Jul 29, 2011) I'm sure this car hasnt hit the streets in years (decades). It's probably registered as a non-op, as well. So how/why the hell does it have a carpool access sticker?!?
570hp for the Dodge Charger, Challenger SRT8 in 2012 (Jul 29, 2011) =\..... Patience is a virtue, and the reward shall be... Frickin wicked awesome!
Transformers’ Bumblebee Cruze Crashes into China (Jul 28, 2011) What graphics? This looks like someone went crazy with some magic markers
BMW Looks to Use Landfill Gas as Hydrogen Fuel (Jul 28, 2011) Look out, GE! Here come the bavarians.
Transformers’ Bumblebee Cruze Crashes into China (Jul 26, 2011) I love how this article's title says "crashes" You know...cuz Asians are horrible drivers. Right?!? Mexico should make an aveo bumblebee & we can have an article about it "crawling to Mexico" ...since mexicans drive slowwwww.
Transformers’ Bumblebee Cruze Crashes into China (Jul 26, 2011) If Bumblebee was a retarded transformer, he would be a Cruze. Rock on, China!
Lotus Elise Leaking Oil, Bourgeoisie Concerned (Jul 26, 2011) Seems like lotus had taken the title away from Ferrari, for the "quickfire" award of 2011.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) Wow, that was pretty spontaneous of me. I may have been sort of inaccurate with that statement. Fact is, with a lot of different issues... The US govt is good for nothing.
Official: 2012 Scion iQ to Launch in the US in October (Jul 25, 2011) I'm with Robby and Brandon. The old Scion xA was a diarrhea. This car for this price is a shitty combination. Who do you think you are, scion?!? "pure pricing" my ass. I'll take true market value and shove that up your rectum, you douche!
Official: 2012 Scion iQ to Launch in the US in October (Jul 25, 2011) Okay...seriously, CB writer, what source told you that the iQ had the 500 in it's sights?!? Really now. This is a bad comparison. This is a new version of the xA. Nothing more special than the crappy Aveo. Even the Fiesta is better than this.
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) I think Christian was being facetiously sarcastic.
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) This movie is a classic! Not a car movie at all, but still a classic family comedy. Go rent it and watch it with the little ones.
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) Have you guys been looking at your Sunday times? The Cruzes are going on sale with discounts upon discounts and rebates upon rebates with 0% financing. Of course the Cruze will sell like hotcakes when the price is right.
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) Neil, let's be specific, as to be in agreement with you: No real/genuine gearhead wants a Cruze! I think that oughtta fix it.
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) Actually, soccer moms drive minivans, first. Station wagons (estates) used to be SM standard back in the 80's
Volvo Crashing (Jul 25, 2011) Rahul's got a point, under Ford's clutches, Volvo started going towards a downhill spiral, so to speak.
Mitsubishi Lowers Prices on EV To Attract US Buyers (Jul 25, 2011) More bad marketing... It Mitsu is just attempting corporate suicide, well this is definitely on course to Hiri Kiri .
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 25, 2011) The 500's inline is pretty good too
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 25, 2011) I'm waiting the WRX(STI) 2-door. That car will bring justice to this toyobaru project.
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 25, 2011) But the engine is even more reliable when it's a light weight and evenly balanced flat-4 from Subie.
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 25, 2011) FYI: I'm only defending the Subie portion of this car. No other STOCK 4-banger comes close. Wait...the Elise/Exige... But that's it.
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 25, 2011) Well this isn't a Toyota engine! It's a highly efficient FLAT-4 motor. It's true that it's not badass, but it's miles better than any 4 cylinder that the American big 3 can build! Their 4 bangers can learn alot from this Subie firecracker.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) This guy's got the swagger and mojo of a "ladies' man" Buy a Cruze and cruise your way to getting some 'tang. Awe yeah!
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) Everyone from other countries...if you don't already know... When it comes to gas prices and our "trade" with oil companies, the American govt is good for nothing!
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) Blame the presidents, all of them.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) Ultimately, Goldman Sachs doesn't have anything to do with gas prices going up or down. if you want to put the blame where it belongs... BLAME YOUR RETARDED GOVERNMENT SYSTEM AND ALL THE RETARDS IN OFFICE. Blame the American legislators.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) I remember we used to have a spoiled brat on this forum that brought up Goldman Sachs. Andy and Patrick probably remembers him
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) By 2013, japan will be building diesel turbo...with KERS, no less Theres a big marketing No No when businesses jump on the band wagon too little too late. Hint hint, GM. With diesel tech: Germany's miles ahead right now, and Japan is just trailing.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) 2013 is a loooong way from now...GM better cut that ETA timeline by AT LEAST 80%.
Official Report: Diesel Chevrolet Cruze Powers Its Way To US in 2013 (Jul 25, 2011) This will be very similar to TDI technology, so if your pitching a tent for a good (non-urea) diesel now... Then just get a TDI Golf variant.
Total Recall: Ford Recalls 3,000 Five Hundreds and Mercury Montego’s (Jul 23, 2011) This is more boring than the Avalon.
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 23, 2011) ...and at least, the WRX still has AWD standard. We could even get KERS with it.
Toyota FT-86 AKA Scion FR-S (Jul 23, 2011) Whatevs...I'm done with this brand. Everyone might as well just wait for a more powerful variant that many of us respect as the WRX
McLaren Gives the MP4-12C Some Soul (Jul 22, 2011) You could go with just about any DSLR camera brand. It requires a special filter and lens. On top of that youd still need to do a bit of photoshopping.
McLaren Gives the MP4-12C Some Soul (Jul 22, 2011) And I don't mean the FF. That car is as much a mistake as a drunken wedding in Vegas.
McLaren Gives the MP4-12C Some Soul (Jul 22, 2011) McLaren is really more comparable to Bugatti. I prefer the Brit racecar. Ferrari has that special something that neither of the other 2 don't have.
McLaren Gives the MP4-12C Some Soul (Jul 22, 2011) If I agree with you guys anymore, I'm one step closer to being banned from CB. You do know that, right?
McLaren Gives the MP4-12C Some Soul (Jul 22, 2011) Thank god the Carshow is around for the American gearheads. TGUS can die now.
Subaru 9-6 Crossover Unearthed (Jul 22, 2011) Though I will openly admit that the B9 is a smooth ride and surprisingly roomy. I haven't driven the new Tribeca, so I got nothing on that.
Subaru 9-6 Crossover Unearthed (Jul 22, 2011) This is almost exactly the same as the B9
Total Recall: Ford Recalls 3,000 Five Hundreds and Mercury Montego’s (Jul 22, 2011) This is a boring looking car for the old farts and obese/fatass crippies. Worse looking than Impalibu.
Total Recall: Ford Recalls 3,000 Five Hundreds and Mercury Montego’s (Jul 22, 2011) I'm just wondering where all those patriotic retards are right now that talked trash about Toyota's recall, and said that all toyotas were bad cars. Are you retards reading this article? Do you remember the pinto or the "Exploder" recalls?
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) They know that the demand for the SRT is strong. (if we know it, they know it). I'm keeping an eye out for Vegas, since I'm only 3 hrs away. But my priority is to replace my old silverado.
Vehicles For The Zombie Apocalypse (Jul 21, 2011) It's the rusty baby blue colored ones that just say "sex offender" all over it. That was kinda witty with the cummins remark, though.
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) Dealerships wanna mark up to 50k(OTD) for a used SRT8. Salesmen are shifty everywhere, but more so in California
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) 35k is what's being advertised, but what I want to negotiate is 35k...out the door: cash.
Ford Teaches the Blind to Drive Stick (Jul 21, 2011) Besides how will a blind person know when they're getting the middle finger at them?
Ford Teaches the Blind to Drive Stick (Jul 21, 2011) Patrick, you know I'm with you on this. In fact, MOST crippies and old farts should never be on the road.
Win a 700hp 1964 Pontiac GTO-R (Jul 21, 2011) Shane, you should've said "hella demolished". That's how Jersey Shore boy speaks.
Win a 700hp 1964 Pontiac GTO-R (Jul 21, 2011) This kid writes like a guido Malibu/Jersey Shore thug rappist. You need to speak his language to make him understand. Use words like "eh" "yo-man" "hella fly" and "muff cabbage"
Win a 700hp 1964 Pontiac GTO-R (Jul 21, 2011) My favorite GTO is from the Vin Diesel XXX movie. But this ones cool too.
Ferrari 458 Italia Spider Convertible Rendered (Jul 21, 2011) The soft top would look help add to the (how Italians say) "pizzaze" effect of the car, when it spontaneously catches fire. The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire... we don't need no water, let the muthaf#ckr burn!
Unique of the Week: 1971 Chevrolet El Camino SS 396 (Jul 21, 2011) Australia?!? Really? Well crikey mate! If that wasn't a dung wallaby on the barbee, just a whippyzip tubmonkey!
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) Yeah it's orange and the dealership wants 50k out the door
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) Malibu (as ugly as it is)...FTW
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) A rental will give you a good idea of how much wear and tear a car can truly handle.
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 21, 2011) Yup, Patrick. Enterprise rentals got R/Ts here in CA. But Shane, I've also rented Malibus with higher mileage, and they drove much nicer. And believe me, I think Malibus are ugly, but they are comfy.
Get Behind a Ferrari Steering Wheel (Jul 20, 2011) I might be one of the few Gen-Xers that actually remember playing Rad Racer.
2014 Subaru WRX and Impreza Together No More (Jul 20, 2011) Am I the only guy that laughs at noneSTi cars that have STi rims? It's like seeing Schumacher rims on civics. I used to laugh at those, years ago when it was the trend.
2014 Subaru WRX and Impreza Together No More (Jul 20, 2011) Back to the good ole days. I like!
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 20, 2011) I've always expressed my distaste for these twin cars, but never explained my reasons until now. My rental experiences ruined my view on these cars.
Rumors: Dodge Cocks Back its Magnum? Viper SRT? (Jul 20, 2011) I had bad experiences with the magnum and it's charger twin, from renting. They were both R/Ts. The throttle lagged and the steering was soupy. Rearvisibility was dangerously small.
BMW Gets Busy, Lexus Loses Out (Jul 19, 2011) This is what Bragman "believes". Therefore, this IHS guy is only stating a theory. In anycase, Toyota still doesn't have an M3 killer!
Win a New 1973 Porsche 911 T Coupe (Jul 19, 2011) Trust me, this kit is completed. This design is supposed to decrease wind friction and provide necessary downforce. Track ready!
Report: Scion, Mitsubishi and Mazda Most Popular Amongst Gen Y (Jul 19, 2011) MacDonald fry cooks have more brain cells than those retarded dealership mechanics. Oh I'm sorry...I meant "technicians" (what a pretentious title!)
Report: Scion, Mitsubishi and Mazda Most Popular Amongst Gen Y (Jul 19, 2011) Honestly... You can't go wrong with any car, as long as you maintain it properly and avoid the dealership mechanics.
Spied: 2012 Porsche Boxster At The Nurburgring (Jul 19, 2011) WTF?!? The previous page mentioned "360" this page says "315" Is this the same writer that talked about an eight cylinder engine with a V6? Didn't you fire him/her yet, Carbuzz?
Vehicles For The Zombie Apocalypse (Jul 19, 2011) Patrick, you've been talking bout zombies and zombieproof cars since last year on this forum. I specifically recall a station wagon article when you brought it up, for example.
