Shall I continue. I can pull out graphs of stock prices if you like?

If you're talking about Sly Stallone he cut and run a while ago.

If DCX = Daimler Chrysler Group then people need to stop grouping them with domestics. They got bought out by the Germans a while ago. They go out of their way to advertise German engineering in their commericals, as far as I'm concerned they are imports. No different than Toyota opening a plant in Ohio, that's just my $.02

I'm tired of his smack talk. I'm no GM fanboi, and I criticise them when they are stupid, but GM is our home team folks.

Lets not root for them to die because the WRX has more horsepower then the SS

StinkBOMB

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you can't root for the home team get the hell out of the stadium.

Chrysler would have been better off without Daimler.

Daimler threw old Mercedes parts at Chyrsler and they cameup with the 300C

Chysler sells 300C to lots and lots of people.

Daimer takes the money Chrysler made and uses it to fix Mercedes (which is not doing too good folks)

Chrysler has no money to invest in new cars which is why new cars look like old trucks

So for some short term gain i.e. RWD architecture to generate large car sales, Chrysler destoyed its own future by caving to Daimler, which is now raiding its cash flow.

Wow, Holy ****, I read all the way through that only to be disappointed when the sales figures started getting posted. GM is pretty much garbage. As for all the points about, just buy a stage kit and youll roll over the competition, come on, do you really think that s2 is that good, so many of you STAGE 2 owners cant break into the 13's. The cobalt is nice and cheap and fast, but the fanbois need to listen to the facts like dan was saying. I argue facts for the most part. I especially love the hatred for the SRT4 which will be blowing your doors off on a local highway soon, it is quite ugly though. The cobalt is not the best looking car around either, but somewhat smooth on the lines. Most of the guys that argue are either fanboi's or fanboi stompers who try to provide reasonable suggestions as opposed to the guy who just posted the thread about beating the c6 from a roll in his cobalt. Also I would like for people to stop using Rob's one car for comparison to all sport compact competitors in the market, Rob did great things with his CSS, but most of you dont have what he has so stop comparing his ride and start comparing yours. Bash my face in.

StinkBOMB

I don't know whether to love you or hate you. You're right about quite a bit. I'll just reply to what I don't agree with. GM is not garbage, come on dude why are you going to come to a forum for GM cars and call them garbage? Be a little respectful at least. Since the new SRT4 isn't out yet let's just wait and see what it's capable of. No bashing, just a civil conversation.

True GM is not garbage but it feels so right to say it, The quality of redline was I dont know poor, but thats a saturn so can't really comment I guess. But yes, the SRT4 will be interesting. You smell like a *** dumpster, just saying.

Anamolous, Your video really needs to be cleaned up for a little bit, at first I was sure if your car ever left the garage and you just started up and revved it for a half hour and then watched MASH afterward. 14.7 with stage 2, keep practicing your an example of mine. Nice car though I like the black.

an0malous

did you read the name of it? or just watch it and start yapping off?

its a comparison video for aem dryflow and stage 2. thats why theres alot of repetition. to ......you know.....compare?


the drags were just thrown on there cuz they were in the same clip when i ripped it from my camera.

and thanks. that was at 2500ft with humitidy at about 95% with a storm literally surrounding the track. first run with stage II, on my 8th run ever on the quarter mile track.

so yeah......

sorry. not a drag racer yet.

pOrk

Keep workin on it and youll get there, I guess I didnt pay attention the the comparison part, probably because I didnt hear much of a difference and jsut though you were gassin it for fun, but if your interested in a more aggressive look for your car you can get this. http://www.shoplaser.com/index.html

I smell a troll. It's so nice to have trolls. Without them we could probably carry on a nice civilized discussion about cars. But then, what would the fun in that be. I mean, not having someone talk smack behind a computer knowing they aren't in arms reach really tops it off.

an0malous

dude are you serious? or are you just trying really hard to be funny?

right now all you sound like is a trollin little bitch.

pOrk

Well I wouldnt say really hard, but yeah there was a little effort, do you have neons under that SS, or were my eyes playing tricks on me. With 250 posts, I would have to say that I am a pretty successful troll, although I dont start fights I end em. I WIN!(&@(#&@!

StinkBOMB you know that I contribute to this site more than some of the cobalt owners, I guess all the guys that tlak a bunch of **** arent trolls if they own a cobalt.

an0malous

meh. have fun bud.
got better things to do.

Enjoy jerkin it to milfhunter later on.

maybe your mom could bring down some sandwiches for you while your Pwning people on the forums.




peace out loser.

an0malous

by the way mods.....hows that ignore feature comin along?
can we speed that puppy up a bit?
kthx

pOrk

Talk about freakin out, wow. He's one of those guys that will always think his car is the fastest because he has stage 2, keep practicing.

l Sh1ft l

Ok pork. I like you.. Kinda.. But you're being a ******* ******* for no reason. I def. would not try and start **** w/ me because you will def. not finish it. Honestly, don't you have something better to do than try and start **** on here w/ everyone?

pOrk

facts are facts and some people just dont like them, Ive been trying real hard not to start **** though, in fact that guy just went off, I was just pokin a little fun at his video, a lot of people i guess dont get my sense of humor or maybe take themselves too serious, I dont know why though. oh well.

rambo

Everybody that disagrees with you is a troll, how intelligent. If there wasn't any fanbois then nice civilized discussions could be had. I post facts, that cannot be argued with, yet fanbois still sit and argue and argue and argue and then I get called a troll??? Amazing.

All the fanbois on this site need to grow up.

StinkBOMB

So what were DMC's sales numbers again? Keep posting "facts". LMAO
