Anyways, I doubt that you can find a 6speed for a front drive car that isnt out of a Honda. If you want the manual tranny, sell your car then go buy the 5-speed version and keep the change.

Check VW bro, hehehehe 2002 VW GTi 180hp turbo 4 cylinder, 6 speeds of love! hehehehehe they also sell the same car with 4 motion (audi quattro system, same thing) overseas. My 2001 VW Wolfsburg has a 5 speed btw.

I just want a car...then i will work on sound systems and all you rich people things

[NikeMann]

the Z34 is a lumina right? at least that's what i remeber it to be. as for my 6 speed, it wont be made by ford. im going aftermarket for everything. no offense to anyone, but i hate honda. i would not put a honda part in my baby. one of my pet peeves of my car is when someone get's in and starts pushing buttons. my friend always does that. he moves the mirrors to odd positions and turns on the hazards. he pushes every button i have in that thing. grrrrrr.....

lol, i dont let anyone drive my car, even my parents.

Oh...yeah, so you did. I've got a V6 Contour myself. Point yourself here (http://www.contour.org/) and browse around. There's a fair amount of info applicable to the Cougars, since they're largely the same platform. http://www.batinc.net/contour.htm has some great stuff, from what I've seen. If I had a Cougar, I'd be trying to stuff SVT parts in it left and right.

yeah it's a lumina. Looking into a few more mod that'll yield me a sold 40 hp for about $800. 260hp would be nice.....

Company Cars...

manike, you call THAT a company car?

yep, the mclaren F1. I have a screensaver with those pics. Really nice cars.

speaking of company cars, Pagani Zonda C12s

7.0 AMG engine, I am not positive but didn't AMG create the orginal military Hum-Vee?

[Zumina]

that car is far too cliche. I'd rather have a late MG roadster with a GM 383 nestled between it's fenders. No, my name isn't Carol Shelby.

[FooTemps]

I bet I have the most unique vehicle. I don't own it yet but I will soon.

I OWN A 2000 GLE NISSAN MAXIMA!!! w00t!!!

What do you guys think of the alpine f1 systems?

[vtec]

is the VVTi in the toyotas similar to teh VTEC or the new iVTEC systems in the Hondas and Acuras?

same idea but different systems. Same for the nissan vq system.

Did you know that at a certain speed the mc claren f1 could actully hover off the ground if turned upside down? I'm sure that I didnt word it correctly but I believe thats what it can do because it is so aerodynamic.

[shartley]

I had not heard that one, but I do know that after a certain speed (I don't recall what it is) that if you were to turn the ROAD upside down the car would stick to it and keep driving... while upside down. It creates so much down force by design... THAT is sticking to the road! LOL

(note: The F1 is not the only car designed to do that though... but it is pretty interesting anyway. )
