Sounds like Trev. Really loud car, stock wheels, painted dark? Type-R wing? Supercharger whine?

Gargoyle25
it was pretty dark out so i'm not sure, the car was red, i think it had a wing, seemed pretty loud, that's all i can say for sure, it has a sc? how much hp does it have?

Yeah, but I doubt hers is S/C'd as well...
besides, what's your beef with ladies having good taste in cars?

its not a beef, its the fact that shit like that NEVER happens around here in intarwebz land.

Yeah, that's true... lol
I took it as an expression of doom, not one of chance I guess. Usually that's how I've heard it.


Back to the topic though... I did see another MK4 Jetta on Manning a few nights ago. Dark Blue, we played a little. He had an Autobahn Performance decal on his window... I take mine there too.

saw a lovely silver cavalier with ez stickers on it and a joyful, heart-warming red underglow roll up beside me on 170th this morning. he stopped a way short of the line and had to rev that baby up real nice to go forward slowly beside me :blink:
you stay classy, mister sweet cavalier driver :thumbup:

spiff_d
Speaking of red underglow, I was following a Semi hauling concrete pipe down 21 last night, and He had red underglow on as well.

It was kinda neat to see. Truck was pretty retro with the round head lamps mounted on the sweeping front fenders, and amber lights from front to back.

He just had his winter tires put on by EZ when I was in the shop the other day... that's a fiberglass body kit... I dunno if I'd be wanting to winter drive that with all the other "Edmonton" drivers...

When I saw it in EZ, the kit(only saw the front) was pretty clean looking

it did look clean - I will give it that much.
however, in the end, it is still a cavalier with a body kit

The 3200 Coupe. It always thought 3200GT was interchangeable.

afaik it was 'maserati 3200gt', and then it just turned into 'maserati coupe' with a 4.2L. it's easy to get them mixed up, but the 3200gt has distinct tail lights (L shaped), where the coupe has fairly generic tail lights. i saw a 3200gt in italy at the dealership.. that was a beautiful car. they look extremely similar though.

I keep seeing a black evo X parked in the NAIT parkcade, parked in teacher's parking. Everytime I drive by it, people behind me must get pissed off, because I slow down and stare.

Don't ya mean SRT-8? :dunno: Or did Dodge actually start making SRT-10 Challengers?

onelowvdub2.0
double double

onelowvdub2.0
srt-10 = dodge ram wit viper motor ala v10
srt-8 = 8 cylinders

challengers do not have 10 cylinders which would ethier be the f350 v10 motor or a viper one which i highly doubt

StickerHPftw
Saw a silver SRT-4 on the west end of 107ave last night around 730. Had a camera mounted on the hood and was weaving through traffic like no tomorrow.

There is one SRT-10 Challenger... they did shove the viper V10 in it...
SRT-1o is also a Viper, not just the truck

Challengers have the 6.1 L Hemi V8 in them, so they're SRT-8s.

The Viper/ Rams are SRT-10s. The Caliber/Neons are SRT-4s. And the Crossfire is the SRT-6.

Where the hell do you figure that DODGE would put a V-10 from a FORD into any of their vehicles?

Dodge already puts cummins in their trucks (Cummins is owned by ford)

And Sterling (large truck company owned by ford) uses Dodge Rams as base for their bullet model...

I am not saying the Dodge V10 is a ford product... but it isn't unheard of to use eachothers products....

Saw a white G37 time a green light perfectly on Ellerslie Road and 91st Street around 11:00pm last night. Good looking car.

I thought Ford had bought Cummins after Dodge was using them..and it just didn't make sense to change...

I thought International had money in Cummins. Then when Ford put money into International in the early 90's, it had money in Cummins. Or something REALLY stupid like that.

SilverNeonRacer
Ohh I thought Dodge had a stake in international.. it was really messed up from what I heard, they ech owned the others Diesel line... meh.. I'll have to google it when I have time (aka not at work)

spiff_d
I know for a fact Ford has many monies in International and not Dodge. The Powerstroke was an International engine.

In 2001, Navistar formed a joint venture with longtime (20 years) customer Ford Motor Company[3] to manufacture medium-duty trucks and parts including diesel engines for both parent companies. The new company, Blue Diamond Truck Co. LLC,[4] operates in the Navistar plant in Escobedo, Mexico.[5] Its first products were the 2004 Ford Super Duty F-650 and F-750 trucks.[6] They're a "joint venture". I think thats close enough.

Hmm.. that was an interesting read

My apologies for posting that in the "Sightings" thread.

You're right... We are a little off topic ... Good thing none of the mods noticed eh? I guess we will have to leave it at that.

i saw a white c63 amg parked at NAIT .. holy mother of god those are nice. I also saw a dark grey one on the whitemud with some tinted out windows. such a sweet car. I can only imagine how awesome 6.2L is in that car. Puts the RS4/IS-F/M3 to shame.. (that said i'd still buy an IS-F because it wont break down)

I'd do a C63AMG. Damn sexy. And enough torque off the line to do nice burnouts.

C63AMG is Mercedes-Benz speak for Hooliganism. Shove a big ass V8 into your entry level sedan. Fucking Sweet!

Ok. It's settled, you take the AMG and I'll take the Bimmer and split gets the IS-F :D When do I place the order for us boys?

split
sure the m3 beats the C63 in the corners, but in terms of looks, power, sound, interior.. there's no contest. not to mention the C63 is only an ECU tune and bolt-ons away from E63 horsepower/torque.

split
its too bad the order is not all at the same dealership so we'd be able to negotiate a serious discount. Regardless, there is an IS-F in my plans in the near future :)

ILikeToDrift
saw a yellow s2k driving top down about 20 mins ago

split
Isn't it snowing? I drive with my sunroof open when its not snowing. I don't know if I'd ever drive with the top down in the winter with an s2000, but I'd definitely have no problem putting winter tires on it and driving right through winter.
