Nitro Fanatic: That Trans Am is beautiful man! Loving it!

Quietnas1: What did your beetle run? Nice rx7 btw. Too bad you lost it. Mustve sucked! [:@] Gonna be hard to find another one in that shape....
The Beetle ran 12.3 in the quater mile with lots of wheel spin in 1st. It was dynoed at 376 hp at 20lbs of boost and the 75 shot. And I topped it out once about 3 in the morning on I95 at 165mph. When I stopped at the gas station the manifold was still glowing. Crazy. As far as the RX7 I'm having a hard time finding one in good shape. I did find one for 1500 but it has no front fenders and the interior is rough.

This is on its way to a lock if it doesn't get back on topic. Make a new thread to discuss pros and cons of trucks, etc. This thread is about YOUR cars, not to debate which car you don't own is faster down the strip. Also, please guys, you know who you are... quit it with the 4chan crap, it's getting tiring. That's what 4chan is for, this is RCU. Don't confuse the 2.

You guys are just asking for it - it would be wise to keep the thread on topic.

ThunderbirdJunkie does not appreciate your off topic post, sheograth.

In all seriousness...No details on the CJ5 webdr? ThunderbirdJunkie must know!

Mostly wondering if that is, indeed an AMC20 in the rear that ThunderbirdJunkie spies...gears? D300 Xfer case?

Just curious ThunderbirdJunkie misses his CJ5 and 7 (not so much the XJ, though..what a terd)

Yes, AMC 20 Moser 1 piece axles Detroit locker with 411 gears
Transfer case is a Dana 20

Front is a lowly D30 but its got superior axles, hub fuses, and a detroit as well.

Its not HDR, but rather a bit of post production.
Camera is a Canon XSi with a wide angle L series lens and shot in RAW.

Why?

It's a terrific handling vehicle with tons of cargo room and a zippy engine. If that's a mistake, give ThunderbirdJunkie 5 of them

It's not so much the actual machine as it is the concept of BMW producing an SUV. It just doesn't fit with their image IMO.
