You favorite car.

First of all, this is not intended to be a 'this car VS. this car' thread. You can say why a certain car is you favorite, but you can't bash others.

Your such a nub.
BMW is not British, it's German.
What do you think the B in BMW stands for. Yep! Thats right Bayern which is in Germany.
BMW I believe stands for Bayern Motor Works or something like that, but there definatley German.

Right now, A Jeep Wrngler Rubicon (turn that sucker into a crawler). I like offroading more then speed..

I'd like to get a Milspec HMMWV too. Not no damn H1 or H2. A Highly Mobile Multi-Wheeled Vehicle. The mnilitary kind, not the rich person kind.

Psst, The "B" in BMW stands for Bayerische. The whole name is Bayerische Motoren Werke which in English is Bavarian Motor Works. Bavaria is southern Germany. Mercedes is from Northern Germany. Oh, and try to be nicer about it.

He may not be able to, but I can. All fixed.


BTW, Flash, are you sure that isn't a kit car? I can't put my finger on it, but it looks slightly different from all the Cobra's i've seen that I knew for sure were real.

Doomsday, pretty sure it's real. Your right though, it does look like it's missing something. They're making those kits so damn good now. But you can always tell a true cobra by when you hear it go by

Jim, nice purchase. Hopefully you can turn this:

I figured it out.

1. Bumpers instead of jack lifts
2. Cobra R wheels
3. No "Cobra" plaque on side above cowl.

If it is an original it was restored.

My dream car is a Volkswagon Thing.





Not really. I've always been fasinated with the performance of the older Corvettes and Mustangs, the ones from the 70's. Not this new crap. Give me a Cherry Red Vette Stingray with Rally Stripes and a Blower or a Silver Mustang, and I'll be your he-bi*ch.
