*barfs* oh excuse me.. musta been that shit I ate for breakfeast... "you eat shit for breakfast"? anyways..... man I should do up my aries with dual coffee cans too then some all around limo tint, low pro arelli 16" rims on some nice yokohoma rubbers, gto head light covers and a huge stereo, can't forget to put touring wing on the back, hood scoop, and take one light out for cold air intake... dress shit up in a suit and tie and it still looks like shit no offence but it's a grocery getter.. where's your decency!!! :D
Man am I an asshole or what? :( I just wanted to be honest... sure it's a negative comment and you're welcome to knock my aries, my jaguar or my porsche ALLLL you want I've heard it alll hehe. I didn't think anyone else was gonna say what they were thinking!
"ohhh ummm nice color of white ya got there, nice license plate, ooo clean car, nice stock rims" I just let it all out so sue me :P |

Not as much flaming as I expected, maybe people are growing up here. J/K Anyway I was going to go all out and mod the shit out of it but it's like sinking money in an endless pit.
Reflux: I was going to get the C230 Kompressor Sport Coupe but then I found the C320 Sport coupe which is basically the same car but with a V-6 215hp and 220ft-lbs torque. And the manual 6 speed. I can afford the car and insurance up to a point. Right know my cheapest quote is around $15000 + so you can see my point.
SlowAzzPorsche911T: you big asshole :D I've heard it all but I figue mod what got unless its an Echo. I think with a little more work it would look cleaner but I will probably sell it soon anyway. You won't being dissing the Benz I'm sure.
Prophet_ca: Those fart cans actually sound real good, with the silencers out there are a little too loud so I'm putting them back in. Sounds sweet as hell doing 100Km on the high level bridge :bigthumbup: |

| Good job with the add ons, Not to sure about the exhaust but i guess some people like that. As for SlowAzzPorsche911T's comments, well economy car or not It's always good to see someone trying to make their car unique or better, its all about the end results right? And just because you drive a porsche, doesent mean that your higher on the food chain than someone who drives a sunfire. I handed a porsche its ass in my civic the first time I autox'ed , yup think I was around 5 seconds a lap faster than he was. No matter what you drive, it's always good to see someone actaully take care of their car. My 2 cents |
|
|
| SlowAzzPorsche911T |
| I was talkin about looks... I didn't knock the car itself.. I just mean ppl ricing out cars in general.. unless done right (rarely) looks like crap.. he asked for opinions and there are opinions like assholes out there... everyone has one.. so I put my 2 cents in.. I'm sure you beat that porsche in an auto-ex.. good for you I'm not gettin into performance issues but can your car handle a 90 degree corner at 90 and not roll? Can it also attain a top end of well over 250 kph? Let's not get into this.. in top end my Jaguar (top end of 302 kph) would even eat my porsche on the highway :rolleyes: let's see a stock SOHC lil civic do that. And as my name says SLOW.... damn my car is slow ok... an sir civic std. would probably beat me... a stock 5.0L mustang with an air filter and a lil tuning will make my car grunt/beat me.. I'm not here bragging about my car and never have I thought I was higher then anyone else just cause I drove a porsche... that green beast in my back yard is an over-glorified over-priced replacement for a penis... still think i think i'm hot shit? |

SlowAzzPorsche911T, Which model Jaguar do you have?
SunfireGT, are you buying the C320 Sport coup out right, financing or leasing? Is it worth the insurance? How do the insurance payments compare to your mortgage payments? Just curious, Mercedes makes great cars, but I'd only lease one at the moment, I'm not used to that level of quality and refinement.

| I've heard some really bad things about the new Mercedes cars... except the S, SL, and E class... Basically the C class sedans. Hopefully your new ride will work out awesome for ya. I agree w/ Jared, is it worth the insurance payments? That's an aweful lot... You could probably buy a nice used Porsche and insure it for about the same? Enjoy either way! :D |

yeah, quality went down from previous years
so instead of your Mercedes wiping your ass for you, it gives you toilet paper so you can wipe your ass yourself
whereas toyota/honda/chev/etc gives you a tree then leaves |

Chromey - that's fort saskatchewan... he's just north of st albert...
And Terry, the quality has gone down since Chrylser has joined hands with them... they're taking themselves down to Chryslers level instead of bringing Chrysler up to their level. IMO |

yeah I'm sure many other people think that as well
I wouldn't b surprised if that's true
but there are also a lot of people out there that think the quality of Jaguars has gone down since Ford bought them....that buying a Jag is buying a Ford
but in reality, Ford has improved Jag's in many ways |

Sorry Reflux but I really like the Silver!!!!!!!! Orion blue is the other possibility. I plan on financing the car for five years which will make the payments around $800/month with an $8000 cash down payment. I have done a lot of research on this car and there hasn't been any major problems so far. S series and up would be nice but thats a little too expensive unless I move into a shanty. Yah the insurance is rediculous beyond belief but if I can find insurance around $8000 I will by the car right now. There is also a lot of aftermarket parts for the car that brings it around 300HP from Brabus and Lorinser. I am getting the car as soon as my insurance goes down. Damn I shouldn't have fucked up last year and I could be driving it now. Oh well live and learn B)

sunfiregt... go with orion blue! silver does the car justice but is soooo over-done for the benz's!
1mns13... i've got a 4.2L DOHC straight six '84 jaguar xj6.... I stroked it, bored it out, shaved the heads, put in a tweaked euro ecu and put bigger injectors, put headers on and straight exhaust back... I've had the thing up to 280 kph on the high way to devon... I didn't have the balls to take it up faster but it redlines at 6200ish and I was at 4500 at 280... I've never taken my Porsche anything over 150... :( I was with 3 other buddies in the jag if you wanna ask em and confirm :P It's a slow car with a 1/4 of 16.5 sec? But it's understandable when it's a 3 spd auto, weighs 5680 lbs fully loaded and only has a mere 240ish h.p with what I did.... put it from a stock 190 |
|
|
| redbaron303 |
| Alex... I vote BLUE! Silver is a nasty colour, IMO! On two of my dads old school oldsmobiles from back in the day the silver paint started to flake off (could have been defective) but it seems that silver cars are the worst for such paint flaws. I think white is a nice colour on most cars too, like the blue, but silver again... there are too many silver cars around now... be different!? B) |

Im sure if we [I]could[I], we would all be driving brand new 911 carreras, But I guess us poor people will have to stick to our GM jbodies :blink:
Thats the greatest part of the whole sport compact scene.... Taking some economy car, and turning it into something cool. |

Speak for yourself, I'm perfectly happy with my 80's crap-mobile, it just needs a lot of TLC and good injection of $30,000.
Speaking to car-"shhh it's okay baby, just ignore all those big jerks, you know I love you" |

It's nice you posted your car in here, but I don't want to see something I see every day.

Sorry, bro. Your car looks like crap, and I would laugh if I ever saw it on the road.

sorry guys, i dont mean to start anything but if some dumbass comes out with an ignorant statement about someone elses car, then they should keep their mouths shut. Prophet _ca if someone came up to your face and plane out said you car looks like crap and every time they see if they are gonna laugh, what the hell would you do?
Come on people, have some fuckin common courtesy and keep your smart ass remarks to yourself!( :blink: :wacko: |

| Oh God, plz not the FnF lines haha.. ;) Yes, slowazz, yours was a watered down version, his was so damn blunt though! Just dont like people being that damn blunt! Just tryin so keep people modding their cars and not being worried about what others think, cuz in the end, its a matter of you liking or not, not if other people like it or not! |

Well i guess i would go home, cry for a little, and have my mom comfort me... some hot milk and her saying "they only say those things to make themselves feel better" always made me feel like a winner... Yeah his comments are not put the greatest, but the owner of the sunfire did ask for feedback |

| redbaron303 |
| What would have been wrong with, I don't like sunfires and wouldn't buy one... i'm glad you like yours?! To ream somebody out and call em down for buyilng one is dumb! Senseibility is great... but no one uses it. |

| Typical, everyone has their own opinion. But come on. Sometimes I see a Import all done up and think that looks like shit, but other times I'll see one and be like damn or domestic for the matter. Everyone got to start somewhere. I did have plans for this car but they have changed, believe it or not there are a lot of sunfires that look damn sweet and are very fast. Any car can look good when you do things properly, saying that all Sunfires are shit is fuckin childish especially when I don't see a picture of what your driving. Opinions are welcome, Assholes are not :thefinger: |

So what are you saying? Only POSITIVE feedback is acceptable? :wtf:
This is a FORUM. If you are going to post something about your car on an internet forum, you have to expect all kinds of feedback, positive OR negative.
If you can't handle the negative, then don't f#cking post!! :blast: |
|
|
| sunfiregt |
| Just like it says, opinions are welcome both positive and negative. I know my car isn't the hottest thing going but going off saying your a car a fuckin piece of shit and I would laugh at you if I saw you on the street is not really what I'm looking for. I know I get almost zero respect with my car but that doesn't mean when someone says look at pictures of my Echo, I'm not going to tell him what a joke his car is I'll just say not my style,rims etc. Lets be a little more mature. |

| dogstar |
a little politics goes a long way
maybe some peoples cars are pieces of shit, but that doesnt give other people the right to tell them so.
its kinda like if someone calls your girlfriend a skank.... more than likely your gonna turn the guy into a smear, am i not correct?
thats why you dont call someones gf a skank, also applies to a vehicle they obviously put time, effort, and money into, to make it something they like more than stock. |

"Positive and negative comments are welcome."
Hmm, guess negative comments arn't welcome.
Shit dude, look at the ratings you got in cardomain.
Give it up. This is V8LESS, not some shit site.
Everyone agree?
:tear: :tear: :tear: |
|
|
| sunfiregt |
| What the fuck is my ratings supposed to mean? They were at like 3 and 4 for everything last time I checked. Its a stock Sunfire GT with some appearance mods done to it along with exhaust. i not expecting a gold metal, what the fuck are you trying to prove exactly? I still haven't seen your car or heard of what your driving so stop with your bullshit until you show me your car. I didn't say look at my incredible better than everything Sunfire I said check my car out so I can be recognized. You talk a lot of shit but your not showing any pics of your car, could it be that you drive a piece of shit and are using my car to shield yourself? Like I said positive and negative comments are welcome but not the childish bullshit you've been talking. This is V8less a forum to bring a bunch of people together and share the same common, less than v8 engine car club. Not act like you drive a fuckin F40 and everyone else is a bitch club. Lets see some pictures of your car big talker. Once they are in then you comments will be valued, as of now there is a 4 year old on this forum talking a lot of smack. :thefinger: :thefinger: :thefinger: :thefinger: |

| I don't know about the Benz after seeing the RX-8 at the car show. Damn its sweet!!! :D |
|
|
| redbaron303 |
| The RX8 starts at $36K - $40K for the fully loaded one like the one at the show! I'm not sure if the Mazda guy from Sundance actually was telling me the truth if it that was actually the price.... even though that's what the display said, it seems to CHEAP. :o |
|
|
| sunfiregt |
Whats the HP on the RX-8? The torque curves on rotary engines are endless aren't they? I don't know much about rotary engines but the car is soooo sweeet. The benz I want to buy is $47000 with the options I want so it could be a hard decision.

SAP911: no, i meant that you dont walk up to some guy in the bar and call his lady a whore, so why should you come onto a forum and in like your 10th post, tell someone that their car is a piece of shit.
and puppet... i wouldnt be so aggressive about trashing other peoples vehicles if i were you.
i disagree that we should treat people poorly because you dont like their car, just because you seem to think your rides better than a fairly new sunfire GT.
and, as a bonus, since im feeling generous, im not going to compare your car to the sunfire, although it would amuse me to do so.
this is supposed to be a friendly site, and i enjoy it as a friendly site, so folks, can we keep it peaceable? :)
