    Yeah they aren't fooling anyone with the interior. That was my major dislike first time I sat in one.

    My thought was "both my GPs will blow this away", it didn't start pulling til over 60 mph. Ol Grape was looking a little confused after this so I drove her to the store loudly.

    They are sharp though. But the blind spots are pretty huge for my particular driving scenario anyhow.

    Blind spots in my GP are ridiculous. I have had entire vans disappear.

    You should see them in a challenger, you can make a semi dissappear. It seems like a lot of newer cars have massive blind spots or im going crazy.

    That one sold for $21K with 38K miles and no hiccups.

    So I'm with red... there was a ragtop 64 Imp at the shop yesterday that a guy could get for like 17 grand.

    If you buy a $50K car, its used up when you're through paying for it. If you buy a $1,000 car and put $49K into it, that car should be in really good condition when you finish paying, and it should be exactly what you want rather than a cookie cutter car.

    The SRT my dad was looking at was brand new.. 35K+ I think. He's never purchased a car brand new so now he wants one last car and wants to make sure that it's everything he wants... He was also looking a cstv with 6k on the clock that he was seriously tempted to buy but I think they might of already sold it. Made me proud when he told me ctsv lol.

    If I was getting one for fun factor, most def stick shift. It feels weird for old dudes to try and wrap their minds around the cars we have now. Like I told the guy with the car, "We gotta find something to like that ain't ten years old" and the choices are very limited on big coupes. The blind spots are a direct result of rollover crash testing on these retro coupe styles. The big three wanted back windows that roll down but nope, crash dummies say not good enough so they all have bedded quarter windows which seems like a rip.

    yes but you can source the 3 inch mufflers and a res for less then the price of the kit you listed thats a 2.5 inch.

    even if you get the 304 ss pipes i posted.

    OK well heres the deal, i need to replace my exhaust.. i want nice sound, not too loud (baby in backseat) want to swap my single outlet/muffler for a dual set up..

    don't want to spend a fortune, would prefer bolt in so i don't have to take to shop and pay fees for a monkey.

    and... GO!

    that link i posted is slip joints, so you buy some clamps for it. may have to weld the hangers on tho.

    summit racing has some cheap 3 inch in and out mufflers or e bay. and the 3 inch glass pack.

    then theres this single 3 inch pipe too. what im thinking of doing down the road http://www.mandrelexhaustsystems.com...ND-PRIX/Detail im not into cutting mu bumper up or buying the inserts.
