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

    • yeah it seems to be Edge only. The dialog buttons work as expected in Chrome and Firefox. The phone is using Android 16 (OneUI 8.5) and Edge version  149.0.4022.53
    • I'm not aware of this issue, but to help the other guys.  What version of Android are you using? Did you try a different browser? To see if Edge is the issue here.
    • 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.
