Oi! Fellow Cougar! Very nice, I really love the paint you've got on it :) . The rims haven't given me much trouble, at least not yet. Any pictures of the interior?

Oops, sorry for the double-post. :D

Yep, below. The left one is with the new wheel (no horn boss, grump) and after I relocated the tacho. The rest are 'before'.

Awesome Corrado Powripper đź‘Ť, it looks like it's in really nice condition. Obviously well cared for.

Do/did you own a M5? I seem to remember reading that at some point.


Finally pulled the hard drive out of my old computer and put it in this one :P






 
Wow. I haven't seen a red one in ages, looks great in that colour.

Damn I'm jealous, an E39 M5 is one of the cars on my "must one day own" list :D
 
Nice Z06 ZoraDuntov. Venari, you have an awesome Cougar, and that's a sharp M5, Powripper. Nice looking Z28, 2k2 Z28. Those C6 wheels look sharp. Where in MD are you? I live in Harford County.

Here's some shots of my T/A:

Nice.

But why is it that all teenagers I've seen in VW's try to lean over towards the passenger seat while they drive?

If you want to sit in the middle, buy a McLaren and be done with it.:P
And rednecks try to lean the other way with their face out the window.



Stereotype yes, but I see it literally hundreds of times a day.
 
'94 turbo Miata, base model.

Gear stick is too far away.

When you drive with one hand on the stick, you look like you're leaning over a bit. :indiff:

Automatic? Aww man, you've gotta get a manual in there! It does look like a proper muscle car, nontheless :)

Call me crazy but that's what I wanted and I really like it.

:drool::drool::drool::drool:

The only thing that makes me happier than a 245 on Virgos is a 245 on Polaris wheels.

đź‘Ťđź‘Ť


I wouldn't mind owning a 245 in the future. Is yours a turbo model?
 
Unfortunately not, not even a GLT, just the normal '92 240GL with the 2.3i B230F engine. Some 200.000 miles on the clock but in a brilliant condition as you can see without a spot of rust anywhere. The Virgos were a must buy after getting the actual car, the 240 just isn't a 240 without them.

I'm sure I won't get away without a question about if I'm going to modify it... so I answer right away. No, this one won't be a lowrider or a power monster or anything like that. If possible I'll get the GLT style body coloured front spoiler but that's it. đź‘Ť

Actually, I was only going to ask if you had an eggcrate grille and the spoiler in mind.

Not even a K cam? :dopey:
 
After many many thousands of kilometres of insanely fun roadtrips, the POS car finally bit the bullet. My brother was driving home from the country place and noticed a strange bump in the dashboard. Sure enough, the suspension had hit through and almost destroyed the windshield rear wheel prorusion. Sure enough, the suspension had hit through and almost destroyed the rear windscreen.

I cannot begin to tell you how many memories I've created in the Bronco. The end of an era; she will be direly missed. :(:(:(

Was the Bronco something different in Canada as I see no Bronco in that pic...unless that was the point of the shot.

Nice 900, either way.

We nicknamed our Escort the Bronco (reference to Jack Black's line in the movie Orange County "Get in the Bronco!")
