Marc Escuro says... >>>>> I will never buy a Ford either. >> Even if I won one, or one was given to me - I'd sell it. I'm funny like that, >> I >> don't want any of my money going to them. > > I probably would too...maybe. Depends on the Ford, I guess. If it's a >Jag or a Land Rover, I would probably keep it. Otherwise... I'd give it to >my mom or something. Drive it into the bay? :) > >>> Yeah... I looked at the Lincoln because I knew it was based on the >>> Jaguar platform. >> So that made it ok in your book? > > Yup... But it's definitely a mark against the car as I consider >purchasing. :) Heh. > >>> The LS has a a contemporary look that I'm looking for too. >> I agree, it looks sharp. > > Especially in black. :) OKAY! You got the black thing going on! Yesterday I went on a long road trip and almost every "Punch buggy" was black. "No punch back" > >>> Maybe an E55 or something. :-) Or maybe a fully-loaded STS. >> With my luck I'd get a Kia. > > Haha.... I can't fit in a Kia. I'm too tall. It reminds me, we've got this Miata thing going on around here, all this huge men shoving themselves into the teeny tiny car and for what?! I have to smile when I see that. > >>> The XJ6 has sloppy handling, I think. >> I felt the same way with the Stingray I drove, I was so excited about driving >> one and then disappointed at how it handled. > > Yeah. Some car you'd think would handle decently and they don't. The MG handled better, and that really surprised me. It might've just been that particular car because I just can't believe it! I'm going to try again, a BLACK one. ;) >Mustangs and Firebird/Camaros were a disappointment for me. I've never >driven a Corvette or a Porsche. I drove a Mustang, it was SWEET, but a Ford.... > >>> It become unstable at around 120mph -- at least my aunt's does. :) >> I didn't drive at 120mph! > > Haahah.... There's this on ramp from the highway leading into San >Francisco International Airport. If I can hit it at 45mph without a seeming >loss of control or under/over steer..... Then it's good in my book. I've got one near me, leading onto the interstate and it curves at such a sharp angle that anything in the vehicle will fly around. If I can't hit that at 45-55 mph hugging the inside, then it isn't good in my book. > >>> I've never driven the XJR, but the new XJ series launch next year. >> I want to drive a Z3, but I'll never own one of those either. :) > > I can't fit in a Z3. I'm not that comfortable in a 3-series. I'm very >picky with car interiors. So am I, it is like a home away from home for me. > >>> Personally, I'm waiting for the new Cadillacs -- CTS (new Catera) and >>> the XLR (2-door roadster). >> I was surprised at how nice it looked. > > Go to cadillac.com and see their new SUV (Vizion) and the new >super-luxury car (Imaj). They are AWESOME!!!! Will do. ~J~
