Damon, that sounds like the perfect car to cruise around SD in. I imagine it gets a staggering 13mpg or so in the city. Do you do a lot of hauling / towing?

yea man, they is small ... but ive grown to like them ... at this point i dont care what year i get of the car ... i just want one

300's iz nice to ... theyre small as hell but also fast as hell .... twin turbo and all ... i think the put out 220+hp stock ... thats really nice

320 ... hmmm ... really makes me ponder ... i guess u could think of the 350z as a 320 ....

This makes as much sense to me as `alpine gyro barraging theta paradox symposium torque` does to a non-footbagger.

Until recently neither of these made too much sense.

P.S. Ken you should bust that move.

1986 Honda Accord DX
195,000 miles
35 mpg
In super good condition

Whenever i figure out how to import pics, i'll do so

EDIT: Figured i'd post some performance specs for fun

98 bhp @ 5600 rpm
100 ft/lbs torque @ 3000 (something like that)
0-60 in 12 secs
P185-70R-13 Bridestone tires
Carbuerated, so if i put too much gas in it hesitates

Its zippy, but i have to floor it.

EDIT 2: I don't believe a 320 was ever existant. I believe it went 240, 280, 300, and 350, but i'm not completely sure.

EDIT 3: This is getting ridiculous:

A 1993 Hyundai Excel, converted from petrol to LPG system
piece of shit, nothing but trouble

Yes, they had excels in the states, but i don't know if its still a model for hyundai anymore. They are cheap little cars they are. But whatever works.

That doesn't mean mine is. Mine is in near perfect condition, besides a little rust. It's just hit 115000 miles, and I bet it'll go that far again before it finally succumbs to the rust gods.

As long as you change the oil regularly, and replace bits as they go out, a car will last forever. Treat it like junk, it'll be junk before you know it. Besides, it's 15 years old, and gets more than 34 miles to the gallon, can't really beat that with a 3000 dollar car.

My next car's gonna be either a kit car, or an Acura RSX-S.

And it is never a good idea to junk a car for 100 bucks, with all the trade-in places taking rust with wheels for 1000 dollars minimum trade-in. :P You could probably sell the bits on ebay for more than 100, and make a good profit on the scrap left over. :P
