    Protege5 insurance

    That's the reason why I didn't get a Mustang GT... They quoted me $8k/year USD. 2 pts, 23 years old... The MP5 is going to run me close to $1800/year if I can swing it. :(

    WRX should be soon... Maybe, if you guys petition them... they'll make a set. I'd be game for a MP5 myself... I guess I'll just get a R34 for now. I'd get a big nitro car... but I don't have anywhere to drive it. :( Might not have enough room for one of these either though... really have to...

    Fastest motorbike in the world (56k warn)

    It wasn't meant to be driven. It was a rolling display of the Dodge V10... and this is almost 10 month old news. A few are expected to be sold. Mostly to car and cycle collectors such as Jay Leno.

    body shops suck!

    The SS 535 doesn't look too bad. The only one listed better than it is the SS 595 (ZR/VR rated) But the SS 535 would be more all weather performance providing you better handling in the rain and stuff. Sucks it took you so long to get your car back. I'd see how much it would cost to get the...

    close call!

    My roomate works at a retail store... one of the light posts (the friggin tall ones) fell over. Crushed 2 employees' cars. I guess the manager had just gotten a new fully loaded Grand Prix... The store replaced both cars. They also checked the other light poles and found 3 out of the other...

    broken bolt on side of engine block...

    the extractor is called an easy out... Get a small titanium drill bit and drill a small hole in the center. Then put the easy out in the drill and it should back the bolt out.
