    Corvette ZR1 to be unveiled at NAIAS in Detroit

    That guy was wrong. The Hummer H1 Alpha was $115k+, and there is no way that GM will price it that high. If they were smart, it would be hi $90k range, but since they're GM, it will probably be $103-107k or so.

    Corvette ZR1 to be unveiled at NAIAS in Detroit

    Psssst, there were NO ZR1s sold in 1986. The ZR1 was a 1990-1995 model car. The 2001-2004 Z06 had titanium exhaust systems. They weighed 18lbs less than the stock stainless steel systems (26lbs vs 44lbs). I do not know if the 2001 Z06 had a heavier exhaust system, as they had an extra pair...

    Ticket for an "improper acceleration?"

    I don't know about where you live, but the cops around here can afford Corvettes and Porsches too.

    Ticket for an "improper acceleration?"

    That's BS. I can spin the tires from a roll on my stock 02 Z06 with the TC/AH both turned on. It takes a sec for the system to catch it.

    Ticket for an "improper acceleration?"

    Yes, there was. It was right next to the sign telling him to use his turn signal and to turn on his headlights at night.

    Best cellular coverage in the states?

    T-Mobile blows goats with a vengeance. Anyone who mentions T-Mobile should be castrated. Verizon and AT&T are the best. I have Verizon. That is all.

    Octane rating of premium gas

    Your car won't necessarily knock or ping on lower octane. Most newer cars will run perfectly fine on lower octane rated gas, since your engine management can compensate for the lower quality of the fuel. If you drive it hard, where you will actually be needing the higher octane, that is when you...

    Handbrakes on automatic transmissions cars

    I also forgot that the handbrake, even though it uses the rear brakes, [obviously] does have a seperate cable to set it. Lack of use could cause the cable to "freeze" where it does not want to move and forcing it can break something. Also, the cable does need to be checked/adjusted every once...

    Handbrakes on automatic transmissions cars

    On cars with rear drum brakes, they are self-adjusting. Each time you use the brake, it adjusts. It's everytime you brake though, not just use the parking brake.

    Handbrakes on automatic transmissions cars

    If a car has a hand-operated parking brake, it is pretty much always on after I drive it, even if it's an automatic. Some cars are difficult to get out of park if there is even a slight slope. If she is too stupid to realize that there is a big stick in her way when she is reaching for the...
