When I got my '87 at the end of August I thought I would drive her a couple times a week..........Yeah Right! Other than the occasional day when I drive my PT Cruiser my '87 is my DD.

It's always a big sigh of relief too pass the emissions test. Good Luck with yours and at least the technicians will have a nice shiny Intake too look at!

They guy gave me a hard time when he saw the shorties on my 95. I told the guy that those headers are shorties and made in California. The *** wrote the CARB number and checked it on their website.
The SMOG test in CA feels like a job interview.

Yep. Our state is broke. Best weather and most pot holes. I drive 40 miles each way to work. Hitting each pot hole is like a controlled crash. Every see the end of the Blues Brothers movie where the car just fell apart. Sometimes I feel the next pot hole I hit the car will be like Blues Brothers car. I'd rather tear up an econo-box car.

I recently had the privilege to own a mighty C4. Can't drive my truck daily: average 13 mpg; can't drive the wife's C6 (100 miles round trip daily is making the nose look like a pimply 14 year old) My wife and I use the C4 as a daily driver, it's purely therapeutic, and it is my new baby that I DO LOVE!!!!!
Did I mention that I love the C4? Just checkin'

I have a C6 I don't drive and even now got a diesel VW so I don't have to drive the C4 daily anymore, but I like it so much I still take it out 2 or three times a week.
I have a gentlemen's agreement with a guy working in Iraq to buy it when he come home in a month- I don't even care if he backs out- I'll just keep it going, but I would like the cash so I could buy a nicer one.
