Which one would you take having the choice? A 1999 Cougar or a 2001 Grand-Am?? Overall for comfort, reliability, looks, and extras?? Thanks, Brett

The Lancer is SO OVERRATED!! I test drove one and pratically leased one but it wasn't as good as it seems...sure it's fast but the interior is not comfortable at all...old style dials, boring dash, and lousy seats all add up unconfortable ride IMO...It is a quick ride though...but looks, comfort, extras, price, and styling it AIN'T!!! Just my 2 cents....

MAn I say like think of that motor with all that power and put it into a smaller frame - I mean really think about the BHP/kg ratio

So you want something that has lots of space but is smaller around town, for like finding a parking space - or even better something you can just fold up and put in a pocket would be wicked - eh

And then there's paying attention whilst driving - man some automatic guidance would be cool to - let me have the option for a few beers and still get home

And then there's consumption and the environment -well I suppose the European imports are cool and all but they just don't have the same noise/feel as a big engine going - so would have to be a big engine - well gas hasn't gone up in price for years and they say that the earth is full of the stuff so big engine is OK and well these catalytic converters are soooo good at removing the noxious stuff - the platinum aerosols - well we can do something about that and well these gas cars and electric cars just won't have the same ooomph and there are no filling stations and there just so much gas around.

SO big gas engine, large on the inside, no problem for parking, self guiding if could fold up into a pocket then ace

buy a bus pass you twats - your killing my childrens world

'Okay - so I'm reading Road & Track today, and they have an article on the new Mercedes SL55 - the AMG version. It's $125k. I'm thinking, if I had $125k to spend on a car, the last thing I would buy is a Mercedes. I'd opt for either a Porsche, or a Ferrari. What say you? '

Why would anyone buy a mercedes?

Now this is my idea of a car..

I don't think the lancer is supposed to be
comfortable.On the porsce tip get a RuF BTR
air cooled and it costs less than the
GT2.Watercooling on a 911 yuck.Not the
same.Thefastest/wow factor ride i've seen is
that VW W 18 spyder w/ the plexi over the mid
engine.Too nice.Also as far as supercars go
the price was right.Superbikes is where it's at
though.poor man's performance
machines.You just can't beat scraping your
footpegs in a L to R chicane.Too damn
cool.Not to mention stoppies and
wheelies.Plus cars don't give that adrenalin
rush unless they're small like a Cossy Focus
or a works Hyundai.Although most hi
performance anything sucks if it's your daily
driver.
