pirty

i wonder what the weight diferene is. your lotus has 5 less rated horse power but accelerates to 60 in almost half the time. do you just motor around? or does it ever see the track.

Awesome! The 1er is such a cool little car, I test drove one myself. :cool:

I'm trying to get one, but I doubt I will (Might not be the best first car). :ermm:

Care to post some pics? :D

Not a problem.

Mine is the one in front. Mrs P.'s is the one behind.

I saw a Lotus like that the other day. Most awesome thing I've seen all summer.

My ride - '87 Accord LX (modified by myself)

1992 Ford Taurus GL

3.0L V6

0-60/Quarter

11/18

First got it, the radiator leaked. Got it replaced, the second radiator was crap; leaked even more. Got a third one in, it was fine until one morning before school, it leaked all over. Last, and hopefully final radiator just recently put in, working fine. Got to drive it for two days before another problem occurred, this time the starter died.

I keep the interior well cleaned since I'm a clean freak, but I don't really bother about the outside. Nothing really fancy, no expensive sound system, nothing. Just a JVC deck and a pair of Audiobahn 6x9's.

Might add pictures if I get around to it.

While mine isn't the fastest car on the streets, I still manage to **** off ricers. Which is fun; I hate seeing white people driving those ugly things around.

Just an update...

I don't know why I put 3.0L, but it's a 3.8L, giving 140hp @ 3800rpm and 215 ft/lbs torque.

Anyway, the radiator problem hasn't really gone away. Just recently we put in our fourth(?, I've lost track) radiator in, replaced all the hoses, and then the water pump was bad. So far it's been running good. Though, now, the battery icon comes on in first gear, and when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. Not really sure what it is, all cables are fine...

wow.. 3.8L V-6 gives out 140HP.. in 1996 they were able to pump out 170HP in a 2.5L V-6.. and now my 2.5L I-4 Altima pumps out 180HP

its faster than my uncles 3.2L (or was it 3.3?) V-6 2002 Dodge, i'm faster off the line and in the stretch :p

    • I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article? Here is a better article so you actually know what is going on and answers questions you had in other comments --> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/05/speed-boosting-low-latency-profile-is-one-of-the-improvements-coming-to-windows-11/ It is unclear if one will be able to disable the new profile at this point but I am not seeing any reason why one would.
    • I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.
    • It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux.

    • Hi. As the title suggests, I can't access the forum on my phone. I'm using Edge on Android and when I try to navigate to the forum I get a "we value your privacy" popup and none of the buttons are clickable. It effectively stonewalls me from reading any forum content.
