not the best pics in the world... i will take some real nice ones soon..
u can see on the bonnet the cars really really dusty, but on the side+back shots u can see how the metallic black sparkles at night.. nice leather interior (the front seats are heated)

its going in the alarm place on monday because i need certification (bah) but they're running a amp cable up the car for me at same time, i just tried and the subs i had in my polo will almost drop right in. new clarion headunit comes tomorrow, it'll take mp3 cds and display the track names! :)
some specs for the car nerds...
its a '97 mk3 vw golf gti 16v, 2.0l engine, 150 bhp, 0-60 in 8 seconds, top speed 135 mph
its got ABS, and ESD (some kinda traction helper.. eliminates torque steer.. )

I went to the track a few days ago and it was VW Day. I was suprised at how good the Golfs look. I didnt think they looked that great before but they are really nice looking.
A few of them rippin up the track at like 160 MPH
-
probably vr6s or something?
btw.. i had a rattle when i stopped harshly, found out... there was a 1 Cent coin under the back seats.. wtf is american money doing in my car? lol

American cars are wack
The handling is shit on most cars U make
And there not really that fast
-
heres a pic of me my sis n my car, btw shes a model so u got no chance ;D
as u can see from the foto the bonnet needs respraying, but the car cost 2g's and the alloys on it are really rare and worth that much so its all good
(http://www.eazy-e.net/upload/uploads/mestaceyandcarcovered.jpg)

-

-
tan leather looks so much better. I wanna drive a right side drivin car to see how many accidents id get in. I could never go to Europe and drive i would use my instincts and drive on the right side and get in a head on collision
-

So I have a chance.
-

How would you know? LOL The next time you're in Charlotte, stop by my house, I'll show you what a fast car is like. I have a 69 mustang, a 71 Monte Carlo, and a 63 Impala in the driveway you can take for a spin.
-
lol seriously......like a volkswagen, honda, acura , are any better...fucking 2.0's and crap
btw when did you get the monte carlo and the impala?? i thought you just had 1(2) mustangs and 61 chevy, get at me whenever you read this i wanna see pics if you got them.
oh and for the hater :
for the record my car has supurb handling and my car has out ran every single foreign car thrown at it at famoso raceway...i've only lost to a z06 corevette a mach 1 and pontiac firebird
-
^^ they don't know any better, because they've never seen any better. They don't call Detroit Steel Muscle Cars for nothing.
My full list is
I own:
69 Mustang
66 Plymouth Valiant
64 Mercury Comet
My younger brothers (who live with me) own:
63 Impala
71 Monte Carlo
65 Chevy Pickup (being restored right now)
:) So we're pretty into the older stuff. I'll try and take some pictures with my digital camera when I get a chance.

american cars and engines are ok.. but.. they arent suited to how things are over here... our roads are a lot narrower, and a lot more twisty... very generally its said american cars do have the grunt, but are only good in a straight line...the grunt isnt acheived through any other technique than making the block bigger.. v8 anyone?
they do sound nice though ;)
jap + german cars have the best reliability and build quality, french and italian cars while sometimes quick are often quite shaky.. spanish cars have a big boost because the vw group now owns seat.
if us euro's are so wrong and have it so bad... why dont ya post up some performance stats for your car/s like i did mine? (and no my car isnt the fastest ever, but its enough to trounce most average and moderately fast cars over here)
-
damn, i thought it was a Jetta at first...i was like damn Seer...say it aint so...tha Jetta was ranked the number 1 car for gay males last year LOL
-
rofl.. it aint so!
wouldnt mind the 2.8 vr6 lump out of a jetta tho.. or better yet the 2.9 vr6 from a corrado (damn woman across the road has one of them and hardly uses it!!)
-
<---- Ricer ::)
LOL

american cars have speed, but seer made some good points, plus all american cars have not a lot of luxory, thats why i hate them old 72 chevys, yea they got 400 horsepower, but it feels like ur driving a lawnmower, id rather get like a lexus, and go slower, but chill in comfy seats and not feel every bump on the road
-
American cars tops the error-list in Norway.
They're not made for cold/wet/tough conditions, curvy roads and bumpy outland.
Chrysler is the worst of them apparently..

nothing a new pair shocks and struts can't fix, my homie has a 69' mach 1 and goes over bumps and holes probably better than my 96' mustang. and about luxery.....most american cars are made to be customized (outside of the mopars) there's no preset features becuase you can add your own shit later.....why do you think GM and Ford sell so well becuase they come off the line ready to fit your needs, toyota took note and their seeing big world wide sells because of that.
seer did make a good point about the difference in cars though......like japanese cars HAVE to be fuel efficient because over there gas is like gold.....and your average european cars HAVE to take corners and stuff better because of your (not hating) weird ass roads [i was in italy and london a few years ago.....man shit tripped me out, don't drink and drive that's all i got to say) . Also most imported cars have less maintenance cuz most of the world is car illiterate, so they have to last. In the u.s. you can go to a traylor park find the dumbest person in there who doesn't know how to read or write but they can rebuild any engine you throw at 'em for a 12 pack of Budweiser. American cars seem more unreliable to you europeans because over here in america we're more into our cars....we like to take care of our cars more,you can be almost anywhere in the us (excluding a desert forest orfarmland) and be at least within a 0.5 radias of some Tire shop , some lube shop, some brake shope, some full on blown out mechanic shop. so like seer pointed out really it's about where you're from which forms you taste for cars.
-
yeah the 'weird ass roads' is a historical thing.. america had the chance to plan it out when building... but our shit goes back 1000s years to old field boundaries n stuff.. and lately they're fuckin up completely normal roads by introducing traffic calming measures
finding a mechanic here isnt that hard.. for one I work next door to a VW dealership, nice and easy to get parts and have it serviced, when not keeping up the dealer service history theres a small independant guy just over the road i've taken my shit to before.. i can walk to at least 3 tire places that sell alloys within 10 mins.. so its not -that- bad over here, and i know theres a performance specialist hidden just a bit down the road from here... but its about knowing where u live i guess.. today had to walk 30 mins to work this morning from the alarm specialist coz i gotta get a CAT1 certificate before my insurance will cover me for theft, and they're the only one in town.
-
Nice one boo :-*
I want a nice mustang cabriolet...
...if not an audi a3
when i wake up ill be lucky to be able to drive ;D
-
i guess the best american regular day sports car would have to be a corvette or a viper. I wouldnt go for anything less like a mustang.
But my dream car is the LAmbo Murcielago - nothing like it in the whole world of cars...u see it and u get blown away--even if ur ont a car fanatic
peace
-
i am a fan of all cars...Im a fan of the big V8's and a fan of the really fast imports...The Supra Twin Turbo, 300ZX, RX-7 Touring Edition. I don't know how anyone can front about the speed of some imports. I've been in a 300ZX TT when it blew away my friends 93' Saleen. Those are probably the only reasonable imports that i would drive.Everyone knows they would take a Ferrari or a lambo in a heartbeat.But they aint reasonable..I don't like the ignorant ricer imports..They drive a stock civic with a fart cannon on it and think they can run 9's.

My boys RX7 looks a lot like this and has about 375 horsepower..Too bad everyone know rotary engines are very unreliable
-
are they really that unreliable? didnt they put one itno lemans or something to squish that rumour?
i have some new pics of my car now, took these just after i'd washed it a week or so ago... it was startin to get a lil dark too.. so some are a bit dark
http://overseer.rollinondubs.net/Golf%20GTI%2016v

Nice motor 'Seer, VW GTI's are the shit, i tried getting insured on one a year or two back but they wouldn't 'cos i crashed my old Renault 5 GTI and wrote that shit off :'(
-
thx :)
it was really hard finding a 3door... and i was ultra lucky to get the leather too
i would have liked a vr6.. but the insurance is up around 1400+ even at my age... its costing about 750 for this one :)
once xmas is outta the way and i've flogged my old car am gonna do some lil mods here and there :)
