The Official Car Talk Thread

I suppose can continue the conversation from the Funniest Pics thread here, along with any other car talk..


Quote from Jabbit :
The SLS is pretty nuts, I have seen a couple on the streets and they sounds almost musclecar-ish. I also saw an Enzo at the car show (it was actually Cars & Coffee in Irvine CA which is pretty well known). I would like an older M3, the last one that had the inline-6. I have never been in one but they seem like they would be a lot of fun. Not really practical in New England though.

We should start an official "Car Chat" thread.
That enzo is awesome. I spotted a 599GTO at F1 as well. There were a few people leaning up against it taking pics. If I was the owner I'd have been pissed.

BMW is bringing back the straight 6 for 2013 (or maybe 14).. They're doing a twin turbo version in the name of fuel economy. There was rumor about there being a third turbo in there too.

$149 is a lot for 5 min.. There are occasional deals here and it's like $499 for 4 hours with 4 different cars. It's all on roads though. I'd rather get on a track with them.
Well it was lame because they bait you with the $99 Groupon, but then you have to pay a mandatory $49 "insurance fee". It was a little autocross course but it was still awesome. I am glad it was someone else's $150 though.

The SRT experience was $500, but it was worth it. Got to take the SRT 300, Magnum, Crossfire, Charger, and Jeep full-throttle around Lime Rock. Also got to drive a Viper on an autocross track, and do 0-60 runs in the Ram SRT-10.

Bunny photoshopped her out of the other one and put her with the blue truck.

Dear Car Talk thread - How much do you think it would cost to add a hitch to my 2011 Dodge Journey. I just want a guesstimate. No DIY - cause I know nothing about cars. My dad bought a trailer yesterday, but doesn't have a vehicle with a hitch on it. Facepalm Well he does have an old truck, but it's not reliable to drive.

$200?

Scratch that, just quoted it on Uhaul's site and they want about $360 for the full setup. $60 of that is the wiring install, though.

Thanks, Not as bad as I thought it would be. Maybe when I get my tax refund in spring I will look for a place to do it.
