Just dont use the launch control on the GTR too much... Its a 22k repair bill that is is not covered by warranty.

Personally I prefer the R32:D, but wouldnt turn down a new GTR ;)
 
"Lindsay" - VW Beetle (1972)

This is my motor (daily driver)!

She's currently in the body shop having a bit of work done on her, my father decided to use her as target practice with the wheelbarrow (an honest mistake).

Most people don't like the new Fusion, but for some reason I do :eek: When Ford starts making the Ecoboost 3.5L V6 with 340hp, I hope they give the Fusion AWD (with a RWD bias). That would be a fun car.

My future car I plan to buy in November

2009-Saturn-Astra-XR-03.jpg

It might have to be used, they're not making the Astra for us in the US anymore :(

Man, that Fiesta is NICE! Looks way better than it does in magazines. Ford should really bring that to the US.

Late this year/very early next year is when we get the new Fiesta and possibly a new Focus (both on the new global platform)

That was supposed to be an Aura...probably will update the pics later.

Sweet! Another Aura owner on this board. I have a 2007 Aura XR. Love it. :D One thing I do recommend if you go the XR route is to change the tires. The OEM Goodyear Eagle LS2's are POS's. I changed them to the Goodyear Eagle F1 All Seasons and couldn't be happier.

Not until November, but I am getting myself psyched about it. How does yours handle?

I do plan on getting the XR, hopefully they have one on site. Preferrably a candy red one mmmmm.

I like how it handles. Love the firm suspension and how fun it is to toss around the corners( for a family sedan). The best part is the 3.6 V6 mated to the 6 speed auto. Shifts are smooth especially when WOT'ing it( you can't feel a thing then). That thing gets to its fuel cut off speed of 115 MPH pretty quickly from 70 MPH. :D
 
There are not any 2009 Astra's due to the inventory of '08's that have built up. There will be 2010 Astra's though.

You sure? I read that because it's selling so poorly that they aren't going to bother with it anymore

You're making me drool, I want one now! :D

Still have to wait til November. That's the only time I'll have money free for a down payment, and a possible loan.
 
I washed it and decided to take another photo at Carrickfergus castle near the dock.

It looked too nice and shiney not too. :D :eek:
