They bought it for you because the price of the amount of fuel you'll burn will far exceed that of any car payment!  :O

Congrats!  :aok

It handles really smooth. I'd suggest one.

So who let you drive a Camero? :D


Thats it, I've heard more than enough from you pal, there'll be no more of that!
I'm too wack for a sig. (Camaro, not just a car, it's a lifestyle.)

Nice, but the inside of my car smells wierd. Hard to explain, but not like new car, nor cigarettes (the original owner was a smoker). Just smells... wierd.

nice car, treat it good, wash an wax and change the oil when needed, and do not try to see "what it will do".

This is a photo of my latest ride....




It is a 76 Mercury Comet, that year the Comet Mustang and the Maverick all had the same frame and suspension....

The rebuild is coming along great, another grand or so and I'll have my vintage ride.....

Regards,
Kevin

PS this is what happened to the ride before....

5,486 HP 110 MPH @500 tons

I dont think it can do too much anyways. My brother's Toyota Tundra 2000 model with a v6 that has 250,000 miles on it out ran a mustang same year same model everything. And that truck cant even do 100....

(plus, driving scares the **** out of me, I'm glad I wasn't there to be in my bros truck when he raced...)  :noid

You'll figure this out on your own in a few years, but that smell is hot car sex.

I don't drive a "Camero".
Tomater, tomatter...
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Don't let that put you off, it was probably some spaz driving it. I had some balding, fat banana who thought he was king dick in a Maserati pull up next to me one night, make eyes at my girlfriend and then rev his engine at me. I'm no street racer but I thought I'd give this guy a go because he was such a knob. Long story short, I left his expensive car for dead, 15 feet behind by the time I got to the speed limit (80ks/ 50MPH) where I levelled off. Trying to save face the fat banana kept it planted and screamed off at 100kms +. Definitely 'lol'd' at that one.

I like it, it accelerates really good too. Suprised a Ford could be that good too. and the fact that it's mine made me rub it in my friend's faces. (mostly 1 though cuz he reminds me of Cmustard, talks a lot of crud and always starts stuff)

I don't about the Fords you Yanks get buy my Ford does pretty well and it's nearly 13 years old (still a baby, though, it only has 115 000 Ks (70 000 miles) on the clock). 4 litre I6 with lots of torque. The Australia Ford I6 is one of the most durable engines around.  :aok



You're a lucky kid, +44, take care of your new baby.
