How picky are you about your cars?

[Mr. Lennon]

Ex, you & I have discussed this before. Same thing happens to guys on bikes all the time. Just a couple months ago, I decided to let them go. Way too many cops here to be making the thousands of morons here gag on my exhaust fumes. But, I used to be the same way. If they started it (which was always the case), I finished it. I still mind my own business & do my own thing as I always have, but now I let them go. I get revved up all the time, almost every day on my way home from work.

Vettes, Vipers, Ferrari's, Civics, damn Challengers, Bimmers, you name it. Funny thing is though, I see this happen to bikes a lot more than I see it happen to other cars.

Where the hell do you guys live? Is this some southern hick thing?

It's either that or you guys have fucked up ego's that are always on the defensive. Any slight hit to your ego sends you into rage "I'll have him gagging on my fumes" mode.

Probably. Up here the police take your car away if you are caught racing. If you want it back, you buy it at the police auction.

Down here we have this thing called the Constitution and private property rights.

They like to scare people showing crushed cars and what have you, as if it has anything to do with racing. Very misleading in order to psychologically terrorize. What they don't reveal is that the cars that are confiscated or crushed are because they are stolen goods, not just because they were racing. It wasn't that persons property to begin with thus it can and should be confiscated.

If its just racing, its impounding, towing and storage fees to get it back, and fines and jail time, etc.

From A to B and back on the cheap. That's about it.

i dont own any fast vehicles, but i will try to get supers to gun it, burn out or show what their ride has whenever i see them. just because id like to see it, not that i can beat them or think i could.

with my motorcycle, i used to get stock harleys pull up next to me with a chick on the back and try to get me to race. are they insane? my bike sure doesnt look like a cafe style anymore, but its definitely still got the engine of one. that 750lb beast of a harley with 64hp stock and carrying a passenger isnt going to get you very far against a bike with almost 100hp, half the weight and no passenger. one time i sat there for a couple seconds while he gunned it, slammed it in first and still passed him. the girl thought it was funny, the guy didnt. i havent actually accepted any challenges since i was 22 or so, 19 years ago i didnt mind sitting in jail for a few hours for the satisfaction of a good race. now is a different story.


and when my 318ci dies in my truck, hell yes im going to find me a V10 to toss in there. it will be my project.

I'm so picky I will probably never buy a car until my current one falls apart. What I want is

- 6 speed manual
- AWD
- Wagon or hatch but would prefer a wagon
- Like the style
- Premium interior

The problem is this car does not exist in NA. I guess I need to move to Europe.

Why are you still talking about V8s? I thought you were a man. Real men drive V12 Dodge trucks with the viper motor. You're just a girly girl who wants to be a man, still talking about small V8's.

Go back to serving burgers and fries at your local sonic, girly girl.

Real men drive what? When did Dodge start offering a V12 in their trucks and why would anybody swap a V12 with a V10 from a Viper? You're a girly girl because you don't even know what engine comes in a Nancy pants truck.
