Now that I think of it I don't know what I want to say about cars... Somebody want to get us started?

My car sucks....it's a ford and it'd dead....atleast I got it off the road before someone found it.
Hahaha, what is it?
Wow, 39mpg, for a hotrod, thats pretty good. decently quick too, especially considering its front wheel driveI like to think that my car is kinda interesting.
It's a well modified 1999 Grand Prix GTP. It doesn't do too bad for a 4-door grocery getter with a police radar and GPS verified top speed of 162MPH, 12.7 seconds at 107mph with slicks and 13.2 at 105mph on street tires in the 1/4 mile (I have well over 200 track slips that are 13.9 and quicker). It dynoed a little over 390hp at the front wheels two years ago.
My favorite aspect of the car? Driving at a steady 70mph on the highway, it gets consistent 38-39mpg and 20mpg in the city as long as I don't honk on the gas pedal (at the track my readout shows 5mpg... lol). Not bad for a car that can carry 5 people and 2 weeks of groceries... and it does it all on 87 octane and is my daily driver winter and summer.
Ok actually it's a Mercury...but it's ford enough....but any who it is an '85 mid size Marquis. I've been trying to rebuild it and repair the damage done by it's previous owner but I have issues with ignorant parts suppliers supplying me with parts for a Grand Marquis. what's more my garadge collappsed on me so I have no where to work
I like that last shot the best. That gen beemer, and the one before were the best looking IMOThis is a small banner I made with some pics I took of my car on a hot summers day the first year I had it (which was last year, come to think of it)

It's a 1997 BMW 320i touring, totally unmodified enginewise but still quite fun to drive![]()
