I dont really want anything major this year. I didn't even really want anything last year either! My list is pretty short: Replacement camcorder charger Tapedeck thing for my car so I can listen to my iPod while driving Thats pretty much it!

Nürburgring launched coaster
TheStig replied to thomas2's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Agreed. EDIT: Holy crap, best ride ever! ITS FERRARI THEMED! -
Crap, we're talking cars! Nobody is getting any sleep tonight! ^Never thought of it that way, but you're right, you do get a lot of bang for your buck with that car. Im just interested to see what's going to happen when the GTR hits the market in 08 for roughly the same price and power (480hp, 25 shy of the Z06). Of course I expect people to be loyal to the Vette, but seeing that the GTR is like the Corvette of Japan, it should sell well too. I dont know where Im going with this, but yeah, cars are pretty awesome.

^Yeah, dont they use leaf-spring suspension too? Think I heard that on Top Gear or something. They also demonstrated the FANTASTIC plastic bodywork that comes with it! Im not saying its a horrible car or anything, but for the money you could use to buy a ZO6, you could get something a little better constructed. It does have some rich history though!

^That is exactly why I like "classic" sports cars. There is just something about them I love. They are so simple but yet so fantastic to drive! I just love them to death because they are so much more "machine" and so much less "computer" like most new cars are. Justin, seriously, I feel horrible not talking to you about cars more when you were down here! Anyway, I guess I can post pictures of my list of cars. E30 M3 Corrado VR6 Porsche 944 Turbo S Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 EVOII (forgot to mention the EVOII part!) (Here is my 190E. Can you tell the difference?) And the Ferrari F1 2007, doing what it does best. Notice the MP4-22 behind it =] Oh, can you tell that I REALLY like German cars? I will never buy a late-model American made car ever again after owning a Buick.

The fact that this car is on your list gives you a billion cool points!

Hey everyone! After talking to Cameron (and probably boring him to death) about cars, I had an idea for this thread. Basically you post the top 5 cars you would have in your "dream garage". Does not matter what they are, who made them, production or not, just any 5 vehicles you would want to own. Simple enough right? I'll start... 5. BWM E30 M3 - Got to love the 90's styling of the BMW's, and this M3 is one of my favorites! 4. Volkswagen Corrado VR6 - It looks like a car bashed together from a bunch of other VW cars, but its a classic in my book! 3. Porsche 944 Turbo S - Sure its ugly, but its such a distinctive looking car that has some major power under its bonnet. Have you noticed I like "classic" sports cars yet? 2. Mercedes 190E 2.5-16vlv - I already own a 190E 2.3 8v, but the 2.5 is the mecca of this car. I love my car with a passion and can only imagine that this would be better. 1. Ferrari F12007 - Sure its a Formula 1 car, but christ its a Formula 1 car! It won the drivers championship and constructors this year, so it has to be amazing right? If I owned this car I would be dead by the end of the week. So come on, lets hear what you would have in your dream garage!

The tile changed, thats pretty exciting right?

Photo TR: Three Weeks of Insanity! From BGE to BGA to DCA.
TheStig replied to 65skylark's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Thats really awesome, Justin! I've always been really fascinated by cars, and that was really cool that you got to do this. I meant to ask you when you were down here, but is the Skylark your DD also? -

Thats what she said. Great pictures Justin! You really did a buttload of parks, didnt you? -
Plus doesn't CP hold a percentage of your paycheck until a predetermined date as a way to prevent you from leaving? Seriously, just work somewhere thats near you and that pays fairly well. Try and get a job as a host, they make decent money depending on the place. If you wanted to work at CP for the experience, then go for it. But you want to be able to pay for a trip, so find a job that will allow you to do that.

Never buy a Canon. About 4 minutes after I got mine out of the box, it died. Returned it, got a new one, and not even a month later it started giving me problems. Spent WAY too much trying to get it repaired, but then I bought a Sony. I have a Sony DCR-HC42, but they don't make those anymore. Its a GREAT camcorder, never given me a problem. Sadly, my chager burnt up in Spain and some jerk on the plane dropped his bag on it, cracking the screen. But seriously, look into Sony's camcorders. There are a TON of things you can buy for them too (pistol mic, wide angle lens, fish-eye etc.) and they are pretty cheap as far as camera parts go. Just my .02.
