you are kidding me right?:Q

Uh, no. The Z06 has 10 horsepower and 30+lb-ft of torque over the M5, and weighs 800lbs less. The M5 and RS6 are a couple of the best sedans every created, but supercars, they are not.

LOL DUDE!!! I got busted for doing EXACTLY THAT [50 in a school zone]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My school was out for a teacher workday so my mom and I had gone to Greensboro. On our way back, I was talking to mom about how I had been driving for a year without getting a ticket. Less than a minute later, I see a cop to my left and then see him turn on his lights and get behind me.

I'm like WTF did I do?

Long story short:

- Speed limit was 45 MPH, 35 MPH during school hours 7:30 AM - 9:00 AM, 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM
- I was doing 50 MPH
- It was 2:45 PM
- Greensboro schools were in session that day


- Ended up taking it to court and got the ticket busted down to "improper equipment"

Heh heh . Lucky for me I'm stuck with a 1983 Buick Century that a friends mom gave me when her mom died. I don't think I'll be getting any tickets with this car no matter how long I use it. The car sucks in terms of performance, but at 34 miles to the gallon with just under 17,000 miles on it I can't complain, a car sitting in a garage un touched for 20 years makes for a pretty decent ride .

lol, OH YEAH!! Seriously though, driving with other people in this car sucks, you can actually feel the car is slower with just 1 other person in it :Q. Once you get up to 4 people it starts to struggle. That's life as a poor college student for ya.

Yeah, one thing about those old GM cars though is the backseat is like a basement for your passangers you don't have to care about your fellow college students door dinging you, and parts for those cars are almost free they are so cheap

I think I want to see the Passat wagon W8 in a six speed and sport package. Might be nice. Somebody will automatically diss it, but then they can show me the equivalent, and tell me why it is better.

Haha, that's too easy. This will EASILY creame your precious W8 Passat Wagon and it looks better as well. All for ~$40,000:

Volvo V70-R Exterior

0-60 in 5.6 seconds quoted manufacturer which will probably translate into around 5.4 seconds in the hands of testers. It also has a nicer looking interior too, especially with that two tone combination (I just wish there wasn't so much grey on the dash)
