    Driving in the snow...

    My AWD 3.0L V6 AWD Fusion was hitting around 670Kms to a tank driving it hard. I loved it and would not hesitate to buy one. My only complaint was the lack of shift control as it only has an L(1-3) and D(4-6). If they could get some sort of "auto-stick" in there the car would be perfect...

    Gosh, these fox bodies are addictive!!

    I've had my '89 LX for 6 years and might consider selling it only to replace it with a notch. I bought my white AOD notch as a DD from the guy down the street and now I wish my '89 was a notch too. The only reason i'm considering keeping it is that i've put so damn much time and work into it...

    You can't beat a good car cover. The cheap ones aren't worth even looking at.

    Project "BlackOut" 89 convert.

    We had an Xplod in my gfs old DD that she'd bought new about 5 years ago and it would cut in and out, had problems with the screen. Finally swapped it out right before we sold the car. Hopefully Ryan has better luck with his.

    New daily driver, any thoughts…

    No one is going to suggest the '06 up Civic? GF and I got an '06 Si Coupe for her DD and love it. Been great for reliability and quicker than she needs. It does suffer a "notchy" 3rd when cold but hasn't gotten any worse, I believe they have an improved synchro on '09 up 6 spd cars. I'd...

    4 banger to v8 selling problems?

    Personal preference: factory V8 If there were two identical cars right down to color/condition/mileage and one is a swap and the other is factory I think most of us would pick the factory V8 car. Now if you can score a deal on a swap done right that's within your budget...that's a...

    GT or LX Taillights?

    For me the GT tails fit in with the whole overall look of the car. If yours are clean then sport 'em. If you need replacements i've seen alot of nice Cobra style as well as the 87-83 LX style. That's what makes these cars great: OPTIONS!

    Traded in the '03 GT tonight

    I can see why you've been after one. Those are sick on the inside. I love the Nav treatment so you can hide it when the car is parked.
