    our two cars are:

    2004 Cooper S (BRG, white roof)
    (this photo is before I ever detailed it, it's shinier now, there's a couple of pics in my post in the NXT board on here)


    and we still have my old car which was a 2000 Holden Astra in metallic black, only picture I have online of it is:

      I will post a couple pix of my mazda and the engine that is getting force fit in it soon.
      Nice! I'm trying to decide between black bullitts, or Cobra R's... Probably the bullits because I'm on a limited budget, and they're cheaper :P

      Looks great though, I bet you had fun with it

        It was a fun car, the best reaction I got was from a new gt owner that intended to blow me off and then dust me...so he though ! I rolled next to him and then started to pull away at the end of 2nd, hit 3rd and then hit the gas ( n20 ) and that was that I just hit the gas to make him look really bad as I was smoking him anyway.

        I got rid of it mostly because I had pushed the limits and it was hard to get a race..no race no fun so I got rid of it and bought the 67 chevelle. AKA the money pit.

          DETLMAN,
          Nice stang! I'd like to see those pics of the rotary stuffd in that RX. to bad I'm on the East coast I'd be over for a ride in the RX when its done. I'd like to see what times it will run. The RX-7 I was in was pretty fast and if you cut out 1000 pounds..... All I can say is DAMN.

              Chubs, I will take some pix in the next few stays of the stuffing...lol The effect of the 1000 pounds is what I was thinking about when I chose the twin turbo motor for the RX

              2000, nothing boring about that...both very nice vehicles. I wont post a pic of the wifes car you will all laugh at me.

                        As is pretty obvious by my user name, I am the proud, 17 year old owner of a black 1999 S-10 Xtreme.

                        I say I'm the proud owner, because I own the V6 model which is rather rare. We had to drive 6 hours to Chicago to buy it. It was one of about 16 for sale in the entire country!

                        200 Hp doesn't sound like a ton, but when it's in a truck that is rear wheel drive, has a posi-trac differential, and weighs little more than a honda prelude..... well, let's just say it's fun in the rain. hehe.

                        What i came to realize is that the "younger" generation car crazies who spend whole weekends detailing, are also into things like mobile audio.... not just bass and SPL competition, but people like me, who have the clarity in their cars to give you goosebumps when they listen to the eagle's hotel california!!!

                        sorry, got a little worked up there.......

                        if i get a chance, i'll post pics of my custom install.

                        anyway, just my $.02

                          NICE, Lets see the pix !! My brother in law has a 2003 Xtreme xcab with a V6 in it, so I know what you mean about the truck. They have a NICE torque curve.

                          I like all that audio stuff as lang as its done right, a nice dvd in dash etc.

                          PIC PIC PICS !!
