Buying a Stang would go against everything Ive ever said or believed in. It would be the equivalent of me turning homosexual....

insert wiseazz comments here.
New wranglers are a joke, and the xj is a realer jeep than any wrangler.


I sold the s because of the EPA.

If I were to get a Jeep it would have to be the new SRT8.

That's ballsy saying that Alchemy... I'm guessing you never drove a 5.0, more so a GT500?

Well, I just drove a GT500 last week... brand new, with 8 miles on the Odometer. I've owned a Z for a year, a G35 coupe before that, a twin turbo RX7 before that. Unequivocally, I'd say I'd own a GT500 in a heartbeat. I literally almost had a cargasm when I drove it last week. There is just NOTHING that comes close to real V8 torque... the sound alone is pure s*x.

That thing was unbelievable.

Some cars just aren't for some people.

Thankfully I am open to driving/owning any car so I am not prejudiced against any one make, model, or style of car. I just love to drive.

Of course I'd rather have a 5.0.

And like that Steve and Shahid were back to being friends again.

Im not doubting that. It just not me. I know damn well its a beast, just not my flava playa Like I said Id love to test one out. The ridicule I would amass from friends alone is enough to keep me far from a Ford dealership though.

The only thing keeping me from getting a V8 or V10 for my next car is a TT V6

Just wait 'til ZDayZ I'm sure you'll get a chance to take mine or Dan's for a quick spin. Assuming you wear the right clothes, of course.

If not a GT-R I would love a used R8 V10 or a used Gallardo.

Amen Steve.

What I have in bold is sadly, what most people lack.

^Im really not prejudiced either. I just happen to not like Stangs too much. You cant love everything. I appreciate what its currently accomplishing but its just not for me.


edit: Im sure I would be super impressed if I ever drove one, Im not denying that.
