    Who all has a beater for the mileage?

    what about this as a DD? it's small...probably pretty lightweight. dunno how good or safe though...or the mileage.

    Who all has a beater for the mileage?

    are geo's any good? i was curious to find out if you could rip the front end out of one and use the engine, tranny, arms/cv shafts in a home built dune buggy or gokart.... on the main topic - what kind of reliable hp can you glean out of those without getting horrible gas mileage or blowing it...

    quick question about a Camry...

    ok. i'll let her know tomorrow. I'd wait for more replies but it sounds like the best idea is to get it towed. What do you think about how that local mechanic said to fill it up as much as possible and drive it to the shop for a 'free diagnosis'?? maybe he was hoping it would break down...

    quick question about a Camry...

    did you look at that pan? it looks like it has some pretty bad dent to it... and that last photo...IS where it is leaking from... at least it looks fairly clean around those drops and it dripped once when i was looking at it... i'm fairly confident there is a hole there...

    quick question about a Camry...

    huh why? ok i have pics. it is her tranny, and she did dent the oil/fluid pan pretty badly, here are pics. it's dripping a good bit but still holding fluid. not sure how much i pulled the dipstick out and it read full but it was on a slight slope and that doesnt even really matter as the...

    2008 Audi R8 - What do you think?

    that's a great question....but then again...it was built to compete right? BMW, nissan...they had sporty cars too... the celica lead up to the supra. it wasn't out of nowhere. i like the mean look of this audi...but from what's been posted it's not that impressive..... and someone said it...

    '89 corners on an '88

    count me in. *covers face* i'm not sure i'm familliar with the level of argument on this one but I agree that the pre-89 front looks meaner and that's the right word for it. I do like the 89+ front end a lot but if you have a black or dark colored car and want it to look badass the pre 89...
