General Car Talk Discussion Thread
Metal_Massager and he fixes dents; great name, haha.
Had my first "fun" experience with the 'Vette. Spent the weekend at my buddy's, came out at night to find the car wouldn't unlock or crank; something drained the battery while we were out. I'm thinking it must have been the cord for my radar as that's the first time I've ever left it still plugged in. Drained her dry though as we couldn't jump it at all. Waited til' the morning, called another buddy who came over and we pulled my battery so he could slow charge it for a few hours. Dropped the battery back in, she fired right up. BTW, thanks GM for creating that tiny compartment in the back. Had a lot of fun getting the battery out & in there.... Got her home, though, so all is well.

Also.. the ZR1 has been spied.. for as hellacious the Z06 is.. I can't imagine what the ZR1 spec and review will be..

I don't care how good that Porsche is, the Grand Sport just has so much more character and panache, that's what would sell it for me.
Also that ZR1 is a C7. The ZR1 is always the swan song of the generation so a C8 should be out in the next 2-3 years.

Trying to find a slightly used Corsa for now. New ones are close to 2Gs for an axle back.
Should I? Couple members on Corvetteforum think it's a bit too obnoxiously loud (plus it drones), but doesn't sound as bad as they make it after watching it on YT.
Just think it might be something fun to do for a bit. Could always go M2W I guess.

Why delete when you can just eat?
Is E85 a thing with the LSx crowd these days?
E85 + cat deletes... I generally avoid removing mufflers and resonators because of the drone issue.

Get some electronic cutouts. One minute it'll be a nice cushy sound similar to that of grandma's Caddy, with the flip of a switch it'll sound like 'murica is carpet bombing the nazis.
