rice for sale

I was going around today to the used car lots when, OMG, a 90ish 4dr cavalier, took away my breath. It was one sweet ride like it had two hood scoops like on a 70's duster and a massive rusty exhaust tip(4inch). You could see the 1 inch pipe going into the back of it. It was just so funny. I'll prolly get some pics of her for ya later this week, and yes i am sure it will be there... . the whole car was rust and they wanted 2000 for it

Eh, gross man... but hey you guys see Consumer Reports today!!!
They had toy cars, and man were they awesome! Yas see that Grand Prix G8?! Man that car is HOT!!! Its AWD with the LS1 engine, sweet, I want that car so bad! They also had a rice eating Cavalier, the car was sick, its FWD, and its charged (can't remember if it was turbo or super), but the thing was pullin 260 HP!! Thats fast for that car, that would rip apart those d@mn ricers. At first I thought that GM was falling into the ***** world... but NOPE they're just getting into it so they can show that Hondas (and all the other ricers) are a bunch of POS's! GO CHEVY!!... see that Silverado with like 500 HP too?! Oh man great show, I hope they put all those cars they showed in production! So far the ones closest to production are the Grand Prix G8, Cavalier (Mean rice eating version), and the Silverado. Sweet, CHEVY RULES!

I saw it actually it was Car And Driver Television and they had alot of nice cars. The only ones that will probably ever see production sometime in the near future will be the pontiac grand prix G8,maybe one of the supercharged cavaliers and the silverado truck. Maybe in the near future they'll throw that tigershark corvette into production 427 with 700+ HP sounds good to me. Only thing that pisses me off about it all is they spend all this money to try and win over the ***** market and they just forget about us who love RWD american muscle. Sad if you ask me. And that GNX concept car would be nice but it needs to be turbo and RWD. Nothing with FWD should be labeled after a great car like that.

Oh ****, yeah its called Car and Driver, not Consumer Reports, I'm an eeediot

But they aren't trying to win over the ***** market... they want to BEAT them into a puddle of cr@p. They trying to take over all aspects of car driving today... AWD market with the Grand Prix G8, TRUCK market with Silverado, FWD CHARGED (*****) market with Cavalier. Hell they've already taken over the RWD V8 market, so they're taking some time off to equal out there defense.. or should I say offense! I personally think thats the only Cavalier I would buy, don't chas think?

But you forget, there are only a couple RWD cars left in the lineup and with the f-body [hopefully] temporarily taken off the market... that only leaves 1 or 2 (vette included). I don't know what I'd do without my second steering wheel (er... throttle steering).

hmm I dunno ford can keep the mustang around and GM gets rid of the f-body. It's all pretty sad if you ask me. I don't know about the whole "catching up" idea. I think they're trying to appeal to a new market and that could be a good or bad thing. But getting rid of their only affordable RWD vehicle in america is a bad move on their part. But that's in my opinion. And they can make all the FWD cavaliers and sunfires they want with superchargers. I won't buy one anytime soon with any of my hard earned money. Not that they're not "nice" cars. I'm just not going to spend $20k dollars on something like that. I don't think they're trying to squash the sport compact market I think they're trying to get into it a little bit more than they have in the past. All i can say is 2003 ford mustang cobra with 390 HP(that's if ford got it right this time) and to compete GM has nothing. And the corvette isn't competiton cause who can afford a brand new vette? Not me that's for sure.
