I'm coming for you Alex!!!!

Really? Trailblazer SS as a tow vehicle? What made you choose this over the competition?

It has a trailer hitch and I like the LS2. Selling everything but the M3. Done

How much for the 'stang?

Clear your inbox!
If you're selling off all your cars - what's going on with that e30? Are you parting with the mods? I remember you talking to me about a set of 16" Ronal LS's that i'd reallllyyyy be interested in. Get back to me with your thoughts :wave

Keeping the Mustang, E30 and the M3. Selling the F250, Jeep GC, Audi, and E36 325. I already have an appointment on Sunday at Williamdesignworks to get some custom white vinyl work done. My lowering kit will be here next week too. I guess keeping it stock won't be lasting too long...

YOU'RE almost 30?

I turn 30 in a month and a half, pal. I'M almost 30.

You're like... almost 25 or something. :stickoutt

p.s. fix my altima.

still a dork

The interior is meh, but how fast are those things? Would be a decent, albeit gas-guzzling, DD if they're quick.

SUV as DD = :vomit:

It's not like you really need an exciting car to travel the 495 and the city...

My 230k mile 1995 Integra LS is exciting enough... blocking traffic that is. :lol

I hate driving my Denali around when I have to.

I never said it had to be exciting. SUVs just suck to drive.

Why not get a wagon with some grunt? e39 540iT? Project e34 5**iT?
Im trying to find the pic of the spec-e30 car being towed by the e30 s52 wagon :az

Alex Shchipkov tows his DSP E30 325 using an e30 wagon that I believe has an S50/S52 in it. Can't find any pics of the wagon on the web

Not a Cayenne Turbo or X5 4.8. :buttrock

They have their pluses. Sure they aren't exciting to drive in the city but at 5mph or stop and go traffic what is? They typically have a fairly plush ride, they're very quite and comfortable. I certainly don't mind driving mine to work everyday. Especially when someone dings me or leaves a mark on my bumper, I could careless as it's a beater.

I'd feel quite differently if the VW where dinged or damaged in the same manner. The real downside is fuel economy.

Love the new ride, Pete!


And Doby too......

The best SUV still sucks to drive compared to a just average car.

I'd take a 540i wagon over either of those beasts.

I wouldn't. Have you driven an X5? Supposedly they are uncannily car-like. I still have yet to drive one, but I've heard this from a TON of owners. And the X5 4.8i is pretty darn quick. Cayenne Turbo is even faster... those things are just kind of ugly, though.

I agree, though, E39 540iTs are awesome. It's just a shame they only brought them over to the States with an autotragic.

It fucking rocks and I love it.

See -- getting older forces you to re-prioritize. Driving a manual in this traffic congestion becomes more of a hassle. I-66, even on the weekends, becomes a parking lot.

SUV's are nice and I liked my X5 with sport. Handled really well. However, it sucked gas -- around $65+ per fillup, easily. I averaged about 17 mpg in mixed driving. I really like the way the new tahoe looks - interior and exterior.

The touring is also nice that I had. I bet I had more cargo room in the touring than in the X5. X5's cargo capacity is pathetic. I know Wonger's Denali is very nice and has a crapload of room.

Congrats on purchase ...

Um, dude, I get that with my M3. Well, 17.8 currently. :help

If I drove the X5 like you drive the M3, I am fairly certain I would be getting around 14-15 easily. The V8 engine sucks gas with the X5's weight. I looked at the Cayenne S before getting the X5; but, most of those owners were getting around 12 mpg.

You don't have to get an SUV to get an automatic trans.

Love the new ride, Pete!


And Doby too......


Thanks. It's lots of fun when I do drive it. I wish it wasn't as stock as it is but oh well.

Love the new ride, Pete!


And Doby too......Yeah Pete, another nice car.

You don't have to get an SUV to get an automatic trans.

Very true; I was just referring to the comment where someone said get a touring that is manual would be ultimate. More than 1/2 of my cars are now automatic.

Mustang and E30 were never including. They are both paid for and are my projects for the next 20 or so years...

POOR!
