The V6 monster we are about to purchase tomorrow morning... yes it is a SUV, family comes first, but it's a 250bhp SUV!!!

Thats the Saturn right?

I'm currently driving a 2011 Ford Fiesta as my previous car was an insurance write-off after being rear ended!

I used to have an Acura (Honda) Integra, but they don't insure them anymore over here....... i would have gotten sued even if someone did rear-end me so had to sell it.

Why won't they insure the Integra anymore? is it a dangerous car?

I believe it must have been the drivers more than the car . A shame really as I have always liked the Integra's and drove one when they first cameout the shifter was like a hot knife thru butter yet I was driving an MR2 at the time so I was happy .

Exactly. Must be some stat, similar to the ones that makes red cars pay more than whites........

yup, same for me, lots of baby stuff in the trunk!
But my 4.0L V6 produces only 210HP though velocity is limited at 110 mph anyways, so not much to do with it apart from fun 4WD wild stuff....

Yeah, the 2nd Gen <EDIT: ooops I meant 3rd Gen... but the 2 Gen was pretty good also!> was one of the best cars ever made. Best value for money definitely; it looks good even today. Just get it to brake well, and you'd destroy almost anyone at the tracks.

Do I detect an American "accent" creeping in? After all Madonna did get a British accent after living there a few years.

Are you suggesting a name change? Such as myownmadonna?

Yes, it's a Saturn, a fairly good all round car, it's not my personal preference, SUV's are not my thing, would rather have an estate car (station-wagon for my state-side friends) as a family transporter, but as I start work again on Monday, my wife will be the one driving it and she has always wanted a SUV.

Which is still 40mph faster than is allowed on US roads, being able to go faster is redundant anyway... remember watch out, Tex is about

If momma or the wife is not happy nobody is happy !

I foundout that my 4Runner tops out at 120mph, of course I was chasing a criminal though .

No idea how fast the Vue goes, the speedometer goes upto 130mph, I've not been past 60mph yet, but it gets there pretty damn quick, 7.7 seconds is the listed 0 - 60 time!

I miss my 89 BMW 325i
Top speed 150,and I got on it a few times!
I once left a cop in the dust without leaving 3d gear

Sure hope so - what else would be your options? Become 2d? Sounds a bit drab...

Why do you miss it? Your description makes it sounds as if the 89 BMW 325i may have met a tragic end the way you were driving it.

Or maybe he's saying his 3rd gear got stuck...

there was no chase,well lets say by the time I was on 3d I was gone!

[bud]

And what was the reason? Usually when a cop is around I drive like a granny.....

Ok thats good and well but a policeman knows how to read number plates you might have sped off but he knows where you live!
