  2. I loved those. They were dangerous as hell in a rollover they had no rollbars. That was cool as hell! It was an eyesore but ahead of it's time. I believe it never made it past concept. The Porsche 924 wasn't all that ugly, but for a Porsche , just a piece of crap car. Link The 924 is truly unique--a sports car made from parts of non-sports cars; the first front-engine/rear-drive Porsche; and the first affordable Porsche. The first point is most stunning-–the engine block is the same one you’ll find in an AMC Gremlin or a Volkswagen LT truck, the suspension is VW Rabbit, and the transaxle is made by Audi. The seats are from a 911, and the body is galvanized steel. So, put a Volkswagen engine in an Audi and call it a Porsche? Not quite. Porsche engineers were hard at work pumping up the VW engine with fuel injection, an overhead cam, and transistorized ignition. Not that any of this makes it fast. It’s definitely not going win any drags with even the homeliest of Ford Tauri.
  3. I take it there's no surf during the M-F days.
  4. Who the eff get's married on a Sunday during football season?!
  5. I was at camp last year and saw Hardy standing next to Parrish. It was pretty funny/awe inspiring. He's a big dude. For those criticizing Hardy, he was injured for half of last year and will be for approx. half this year. Cut the kid a break. Sheesh!
  6. Brandy and Mr. Whiskers isn't on? Tsk, tsk Cablelady. Drinking beer at 7am and then driving. Naughty, naughty.
  7. BTW: Nissan Cube It looks like the designer accidentally put two boxes next to each other and decided that would be a cool car design. Honda Element This is the car the Cube competes with. While it's not a beauty it's much less of an eyesore than the Cube. That's not saying much though. AMC Pacer Another look IMO it's the automotive equivalent of a blowup doll. Here's a list of the top 10 most idiotic cars of all time as chosen by "World Auto News and Reviews". 10. Chevrolet Chevette 9. Edsel 8. AMC Matador 7. Corvair 6. AMC Gremlin - When I was a kid I thought this was the coolest car I'd ever seen. 5. Chevrolet Vega 4. Pontiac Aztek 3. Ford Pinto 2. Yugo - A Cadillac dealer in Florida ran a buy one get one free promotion. If you bought a Cadillac they'd give you a Yugo free. A woman they interviewed said she'd give the car to her maid. (No link this is just from memory) 1. AMC Pacer
  8. My brother, who's waaaayyy into cars and subscribes to about 5 car magazines told me the guy in charge of the Aztec program was fired. I can't find anything on the internet to back that up though. If anyone knows about that it would be my brother though, so I believe it. Link Finally, in a corner, I ask a friend who worked at Pontiac: "What were you guys thinking?" "Hey," he said, "give us a little credit for trying something different." OK, I can do that. This was in 1998, a period when GM wasn't trying much of anything different. But there's different-good, and different-Aztek. Link Sales never reached the 30,000 level needed to make money on the Aztek, so it abruptly went out of production last year. The tongue-in-cheek hosts of National Public Radio's "Car Talk" named it the ugliest car of 2005. "It looks the way Montezuma's revenge feels," one listener quipped. _____________________________ Maybe you think the Pontiac Aztek was the greatest car ever made, belong to the Flat Earth Society, and make a pilgrimage to the alien landing site at Roswell, New Mexico, every four years. Link A "blindfold test" of the target customers proved successful: After their Aztek walkarounds, nine out of 10 participants begged to be blindfolded. Link Welcome to the Aztek Fan Club 2.0 This site is dedicated to the Pontiac Aztek, their owners and enthusiasts. Inside you will find an online community of over 1000 members and in excess of 77000 posts on topics ranging from trouble shooting problems with your Aztek, to repair advice as well as general conversation on numerous topics, information on Rallies and Local Get Togethers, etc, etc. New sections will be added as the site develops and suggestion are made by members. Link My brother works with a guy who thinks the Pacer is one of the most beautiful cars ever designed. Top Ten Worst Cars of The 2000s. 10. Pontiac Aztek 9. Daewoo Anything 8. Isuzu VehiCROSS 7. Jaguar X-Type 6. Pontiac Sunfire 5. Cadillac Catera 4. Toyota Echo 3. Jeep Compass 2. Chrysler Sebring 1. Smart ForTwo The Aztek should be way farther down that list and I question the Smart For Two being on the list. I owned a Datsun F-10 when I was just starting college. A 1984(?) issue of Motor Trend listed it as one of the top ten ugliest car designs ever. I loved that car. (Mine was a white 1977 two door hatchback model. Don't look at the ahem...modifications made to this one but it gives you a good look at the side view. Front view (I called it "The Fly" because of it's bugged out looking headlights.) Here are some more looks at thing.
  9. I've seen parts of it and she's hotter than the surface of the sun. The fourth picture I believe is from that movie. The only problem with that movie is that you have to put up with Rosie O'Donnell who I believe dons some sort of dominatrix gear. There is a scene where Dana bares all, IIRC.
  10. Andre Reed?! Really!! Andre Reed!! It's 80-1 he makes it in this year. JMO
  11. Please keep your fantasy's to yourself.
  12. It didn't take a team of them. Jackass!!
  13. Have you gotten a wave yet on that brain scan?
  14. At a friends house? No, nevermind.
  15. It was fun looking for them!!
  16. Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
  17. Dana Delany: #1 #2 #3 #4 (Jaw Drops!! pant!!, pant!!) #5
  18. You said it brutha! Dana Delany is a MILF!! #1 #2 #3 #4 (Jaw Drops!!) #5 Both. My brother put it best when he said Wolf is an empty suit.
  19. But you did resp..... Awww, never mind. My three since I've already responded to those posts I may as well participate. 1. Deerball 2. damj 3. Dev 3b. Deerball again. And oh yeah! I need to be spanked three times by Suzy Kolber.
  20. Forte would be the obvious choice but he is going against the Squealers. Bowe caught a TD pass against Baltimore and so with him being at home and the possible return of Cassel and going against the Faders I say go for Bowe.* - JMO *Cannot be held responsible for any FF losses due to my advice.
  21. I think it was John Stewart who said that Kanye was probably initially excited; "The Presidents talking about me?! Cool, what'd he say?" The funny thing about this is he was worried about it getting out and now that it has I think people view him a little more favorably. - JMO
  22. Macho Grande? I'll never get over Macho Grande.
  23. When I read your description and saw it was eight minutes I didn't think I'd probably watch the whole thing. Whoa! Was I wrong that is effing unbelievable. I love how she can choreograph the whole thing to the soundtrack too! Amazing, just amazing. But obviously she harbors a lot of anger.
  24. Jim it's who cares game. Those are fun to watch just for the appreciation of the game. The Jets are being touted as one of the great teams in the NFL right now and it will be interesting to see if that holds up.
