Who watches Son of the Beach? That show is the best.

'02 VW GTI 1.8T, manual, 100% man here even if some of you mistakenly think I drive a pussy's car. Also, I love to sit in Houston traffic with it.

People like myself who prefer to drive manuals don't consider it work. There is an element of fun and control that automatic drivers just don't understand. Stick drivers are not in the minority. Worldwide, the vast majority of cars, trucks, and SUVs are manual transmission. Here in America...

Fight it. I'm fighting one right now and I will never go down without a fight again.

All this talk of great drivers and sports cars makes me wonder. Why are the overwhelming majority of Mustangs and Camaros sold with a 4-speed (really a 3-speed w/ overdrive) automatic transmission?

South Florida has nothing on Texas. I lived in Miami for a while and now live in Houston. Houston in the summer is Miami +5 or 10 degrees. No tropical breezes for us either.

Another vote for the 1.8T. I have a 1.8T GTI, I love it. Call and email all the car dealers around you to find the best price.

Cant we all just get along? Just kidding. Anyway, Playing the race card, no matter who you are, is a low blow. Besides, with a little more thought and creativity you can think of something 10x more insulting than what color the person is.

Emmanuelle in Space is a great show. Krista Allen is one fine piece of ass.

Living in Texas, I nominate all 2WD Chevy Tahoes and Suburbans. I can't tell you how many I see taking up two parking spaces and blocking intersections every day.

<< Yes, there is a performance increase. I didn't say there was not. Its just not in the low end. "headsnapping" is not what it feels like... More like go-cart. I drive a 93' Maxima (with most of the handling mods that I can get for my car) It has a 3.0L V6 160HP. Not fast. In fact its the...

I have the 180hp version of the 1.8T in my '02 GTI. It's a great engine with a ton of torque. There are a lot of people who have chipped the 150hp version giving it 210+hp and it they have been very reliable. The Audi TT 1.8T also has the same basic engine in 180hp or 225hp. There are a ton...

Say no to rice. Say yes to that Euro style, luxury and handling. Audi has a better warranty too, 4yr bumper to bumper, maintenance costs shouldn't be a deterrant.
