ya most people would take a viper over it, including the stereotypical dbag viper owner, which is precisely why i would take the other. i prefer unique, subtle and classy to loud, gaudy and obvious. vipers also ride like as anyone whose been in one knows. the ferrari is another matter. they look and feel sexy and classy, but if you love working on logically designed cars with reasonably priced parts, they are a nightmare to own. |

| at the time i needed the monies, the v8 was costing me too much in gas (back when gas was over $4/gal), not to mention the tires i went through and i figured it wouldn't be long before i was back in a newer i6 sc. then i realized cars are a money pit and i didn't have the money for it so now i drive an avalon. it's ugly but whatever! i get 30mpg and i can fit my whole life in the trunk. not to mention cops never suspect me of anything no matter how much dirt i do behind untinted windows :cool: |

Haha yeah there are advantages to appearing more "affluent" in a nicer or whatever car. |

Back to germans. Yesterday the brand new Audi A8 was revealed. Seriously, brand new? Could have fooled me from the pics. By now you've probably guessed that im not nearly as excited by this as i was from BMWs last unveiling (the 5er). That at least looks a bit different than other cars it makes (save for the interior which is almost the same as in the 7 series...which is good, because thats one awesome interior). The new A8 though looks to me like they just took the a4 and put the photocopier on enlarge (save the front and rear lings which were nicked from the a5).
Anyways, heres some pics

Still prefer the 7 series or the S class. |
Yeah saw that yesterday. Overall very disappointing. It's more of a refresh than anything. If it werent for those stinkin' LEDs it's really got nothing that makes it stand out.
Among the big 3, I'd go big or go home...S-Class all the way. |

Wow , after some quick googling our gallon is 7.47 USD and my car gets 69 mpg urban driving and 96 mpg out of urban .
Ditch the V8 and go Diesel like i did , you will be laughing. |

| Also, late-breaking - Fritz is out as GM CEO. I think it's a good move. Why fire Wagoner and replace him with a 25-year company vet? They need new blood like Ford did 5-7 years ago when Mulally took over. |

| I saw my first Golf GTi Mk6 on the road yesterday. It makes my Mk5 look like . :mad: Especially since it was graphite, the best colour and an option which they didn't offer for the Mk5. |
