Re: Car Talk
Drove the Avanti yesterday; it purred like a kitten and screamed like a banshee when the supercharger kicked on.
Tried to drive the Corvette; I give some slack for being stored for 5 months, but Jesus fucking Christ, what a piece of shit. (Beautiful shit.)

Being the fastest, most advanced, most stylistic production car in the world, and ended a major car company, will do that.C-Mag wrote: Fri Apr 16, 2021 5:02 pmLove most all 'vettes, but I've never gotten into the Avanti.

Re: Car Talk
I'm sitting on a lot of cash
I'm gonna have to buy a new car
the biggest problem is deciding what to get
no need for practicality, my wife's car has that covered
I can buy a sports car, but it is paralysis by analysis right now

Re: Car Talk
At your age, buy an old sports car: the one you always wanted. Drive it occasionally, take it to the summer cruise-ins, join the club, learn how to repair the damn thing.

Re: Car Talk
I already had a supercar
but the insurance was a rip off and the cops just followed me around looking to give me a ticket
I need a stealth street racer
I might have to get someone to build one for me custom

Re: Car Talk
I'm getting a bus, gutting it, and renovating the insides to be a camper. Might also try some experimental stuff out as well for energy collection while driving.
See if I can't make it a long-term project.
