YACT: So I saw this hottie in a semi-riced escort

[Kibbo]

Once, I saw this girl with this wicked cool Trapper-Keeper.

I was carriying my '02 3-ring Acco-Wilson with the electric pencil sharpener mod, so I tried to beef her.

I couldn't catch up after she pepper sprayed me.

You got brass ones (for admitting you own a Topaz, make that 2)

 

[Doboji]

You tried to Beef with her?...

I'm sorry but I'm going to have to confiscate your street slang card... to "beef" means to argue with... to have a grudge against. Example:

Eminem: I heard it through the grapevine we even beefin now

Yeah ummmm.....

One time, at band camp, this girl looked at me! I called my mom to come pick me up and take me home so I could post on ATOT and ask what to do!

So what do I do?

You admit to owning more then one Topaz!:Q

LOL that's what I was thinking 😉

Isn't that the same as a Ford Escort? Were you thinking that you two were soul-mates or something?

The Topaz is the same as the Ford Tempo. The Tracer is the same as the Escort.

And Viperoni, I can understand 1 but 2!

The othe one is actually going to be my moms whenever she gets her license. Mine is for surprising ricers 🙂

Ah, ok. And yeah, I didn't figure a Topaz could run 16's. I'm amazed that car even came with a 5-speed.

Not only that...believe it or not, they also came in AWD versions. From Yahoo Autos:

The Basics
The Mercury Topaz and similar Ford Tempo arrived in 1986. Powerplants included a 2.3-liter overhead-valve 4-cylinder and a so-called "High Output"
version of the same engine that raised horsepower from 98 to an even 100. A 5-speed manual transmission was standard, while a 3-speed automatic was optional. Motorized automatic shoulder belts were standard for driver and passenger alike. However, an optional driver-side airbag was on the option list. Topaz came in both 2-door and 4-door versions. The 1990 GS and LS models could also be ordered with a part-time 4-wheel-drive system.

I always thought it would be kind of cool to have a nasty looking AWD Topaz - completely stock appearance, with an assortment of dents/rust spots - with a built up 2.3 turbo motor hiding in it to wail on ricers 😀. Good luck finding one, though.

One dood already did swap in a Lima OHC turbo engine... I believe he runs 12's 🙂 It's a full on race car though.
The other guy with a SHO swap and NAAWWWWWWWZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ should be in the 13's on street tires 🙂

BTW: The AWD system was very weak, and only meant for part time use, such as in occasional heavy snow.

I saw a beat up, heavily hail-damaged 92-ish Civic four-door (probably worth $1,500 at most, but only with low miles and no mechanical problems) with another $2,000-2,500 worth of brand-new plus-size rims and tires. I honestly couldn't help but laugh. (Kids and their funny priorities--get the nice(r) car first, then the rims; do otherwise, and you look like an idiot.)
