I drive a 98 Jeep Wranger Sport. I love it, got it all jacked up and everything. I got lucky, my dad is a sales manager at a car dealership and he hooked me up with a good deal. ($210 per month)
Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.

Originally posted by Matthew Gates I want this car, which is a 2001 Chrysler Sebring 4dr Sdn LXi. Unfortunately, it costs over $21,000 and that doesn't even include extras.
So how do people afford such cars?
Cheer up- it would cost loads more in the UK. We're always ripped off when it comes to cars

Boring! Where's the fun in that
I hope you don't take one of your mates "who knows something about women" to test drive a new girlfreind to see if she's a good shag (or pyshco)?

Maybe we should have a sort of MOT (Road worthiness test) for women. Then you would now in advance if she was bonkers.
Or maybe bonkers in a cute, energetic, having a good time sort of way. As opposed to being bonkers in a frightning, boil your pet bunny, stab you in the middle of the night sort of way.
Or how about an electronic detector. The LooneyO'Matic. You could point it at women and it would give you a rating as to how many cards short of a full deck she is.
Like "She was all right, only a couple of cards short according to the LooneyO'Matic" or "She was about 10 cards short man!"
What do you think, should we make such a device.

We could expand the LooneyO'Matic with upgrade packs.
The GaggingO'Matic could detect if the girl in question is gagging for it, and the SkankO'Matic could sniff out cheap perfume and notify you if it's going to be a cheap date or an expensive one (followed by no sex).
It could give a combined reading, so you could weight up the pro's and con'.
Actually here's something to try.
Get your mobile phone, turn the "annoying beep when you press a key" function on. Turn the beep volume up full. Now announce to the office that you've bought one of those new fangled Skank detectors (the SkankO'matic 2000). Walk arround the office holding the phone in front of you and pressing a key about every second. As you get close to one of your female friends (preferably one with a good sense of humour), start pressing the key faster and faster as you approach her, as if she has activated it.
Please post your success, failure rate up on this board, and let us know how you got on.

It doesn't move too fast, but has lots of armor and is armed with a Harmonic Resonance Cannon. Courtesy of the Global Defense Initiative (GDI - Tiberian Sun)

Good choice nissans are tops. I gotta 200SX as well 1995 model and it flogs along! Such a nice car. whats years yours?
But one mistake i think you said:
200sx(uk) 180(us/jap) nope
200sx(uk/aus) Silvia(us/japan) 180sx's are different cars they are same motor as 200sx but are hatch/lift back not sedans like 200sx.
I'm not sure if they even still make 180sx's.
180sx the early 90's anyway are way ligjhter than 200sx's etc etc.
This maybe different in the UK?
The reason they changed the name Silvia to 200sx in other countries is becuase of the conversion's needed to fit the other countries regulations.
