  4. awww shiiitt.... just got my jeep back from repairs and damn...

    i gotta say... its sex on wheels.

    dayum.. took it for a drive, and it sounds like a badass monsterrr..... changed muffler for FIRST TIME in 9 years. most cars change like.. 3-4 years? anyways, so the muffler contributed to the awesome sound...

    other thing was differentials.. had to replace it cuz it was dangerous for me had it failed.

    had the differentials failed while i was driving on highway, shit lost of control and then no more PA or anything else for dann.

    dudes there were nice enough to clean my car for me... now its like a brand new car... aside from that nasty rust spot that needs to be fixed.

    pics or ban.





    On my side, I am socked by the amount of gas money I spent in the last 3 weeks in the 545i so I decided to shop for a daily driver. something economical. Well, I guess I couldn't resist. I'm finalizing some paperworks for this ricebox :D

    Civic type R conversion from A to Z minus the engine, which is perfect for me. Handling monster and fuel economy.

    did you spend around 10 grand for that? those EK hatches usually hold a pretty high resale value. But i know you live in montreal where cars are ridiculously cheap.

    you should just save your money towards a new 3 series coupe...
     
  7. i hope that wasnt directed to me right? cuz if it is, theres nothing much to see. its a stock 99 cherockee laredo.

    google it.

    4.5k$ It's a summer daily driver/ part time track car. I don't mind the wow effect. Montreal cops are going nuts on modified cars and speeding. I know I will go nuts if I go for an E46. I have a heavy foot and a torqueless ricebox is perfect for this summer. I'm waiting for this hype to cool down so that I will consideer something else.

    Oh. It sounded that you modified your Jeep.
     
  9. ^ nah.. just repairs....

    i can't believe they give u a van to rent to get ur cherokee repaired. they should give u something better. vans are just slow, hard to drive and uneconomical in fuel lol. also, it doesn't even fit much ppl.
     
  11. that van smelled like shit too. smell of cigs.

    and the day i drive the van is the day i see more hot chicks. wtf.

    yo everyone been talking about the civic si and all. But i bet u most pplz doesnt notice that it's one the safest car there is in terms of crashes. this car is rock solid. not even a BMW can handle a 40mph crash test. i wish i could find the site back but i couldnt.

    but anyways, in terms of fuel economy for sporty cars, the lotus elise isnt that bad. Check this out.

    im sure its mpg is great, the elise just uses a supercharged toyota engine, and also the body is super light.
     
  15. uhh... dude... chicks were something i said. <_<

    read again, i said the day i rode my van to school was the day i see more hot chicks than if i did with my jeep.

    rock solid doesnt mean safe, a properly designed car is safe :p


    and more woes for the UK, some oil refinery which controls 30% of UKs import of oil has decided to go on strike for 48 hours, which means no petrol or expensive petrol and queues :D .....
