You might have a problem with that... Speed cameras use radar and the HARMs would lock on to the radar...

Wait... Thats an advantage, right?
For example, suppose I wrote a book that within 30 years of the moon landing millions of people could be duped by bad science and endless hectoring into believing that it didn't happen... nah, can't do that, too unbelievable for a fantasy novel, right?--Terry Pratchett, The new Discworld Companion

A compact car with 20 pounds of racing stickers on it, no muffler to make the engine sound loud and powerful when it's not, and a rear spoiler duct-taped to the back.

On second thought, scratch out that idea. I'll take This thing, or this thing, or the car featured here.

Yes, from back when they where cars to be proud of, a Corvette Stingray C3(1968 would be my preffered model), in black prismatic color would be my first choice.

Here's some examples, not with the prismatic color tho:

Funny thing is I already own it. I just have to get it from N. Jersey. Was actually going tomorrow but with the snow coming I might have to wait till later in the week. It's my dream car in that I dream about the day I'll have everything fixed on it.

I'd prefer a BMX X5, a BMW 7, or a Maserati Quattroporte, though a Jaguar, especially their Daimlers can be nice, to :D

Does it run on petrol? Or on Dilithium?
I wouldn't want to be anywhere near when one of these cars explodes.

And I am imaginative, just not in your direction Alyeska :P

got a special space in my heart for a 66 Mustang and a 72 GTO too.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

Circa 1986 Aston Martin Vantage Volante. I am willing to compromise on the 'outrigger' and Stinger misiles.

I like anything fast & British. :wink:
After all, this is completely straightforward. What could possibly go wrong?

THIS LOOKS LIKE A JOB FOR EMERGENCY PANTS!

I hate Matt Damon and there's not a damn thing you can do about it

No, I'm not on drugs. I'm like this all the time.
