Since Wolf Bite thinks his Jaguar is a cat.

Sweet car. =) I have a Honda Civic, nothing special, but I'll put a picture up later.

(I can't drive)

That's also a pretty cool car, Menatus. :P

do the stripes make it go faster?

DO WANT

Although I doubt I'll ever have a car (even the one above) as the insurance is too darn high! (as a famous american politician once said)

That is Shael's shiny blue car, a 2011 Honda Civic. =)

Good lord, I can't make fun of it. Please to be posting more vehicles I can make fun of.

Menatus · May 24, 2011, 11:57:09 AM

Just look at my car again. :)

you did not answer my question, do the stripes increase the velocity of your automobile? (also you might want to edit out the plate number if you are going to post this on the interbutts)

I don't think much of most new cars. With everything becoming computerised, maintenance is now a specialist profession. Whereas in older cars, it's all just gears and wheels which you can fix up with a spit-shine and a rag. They also tend to last longer when they are simple.

@kilk: Racing stripes always make things faster. Scientific fact.

Menatus · May 24, 2011, 12:46:54 PM

I agree...my car is manual transmission, manual locks, manual windows, and absolutely no features, not even cruise control. All it does is drive.

And yes, the stripes make it faster. Expoenentially.

Though you do have a nice car, Shael. :) I really wanted a PT Cruiser convertible.

People that can drive manual are in short supply these days. You, ma'am, are a rarity.

Shadow · May 24, 2011, 12:54:09 PM

I much prefer manual transmission. Bloody hard to find now, though.

You sounds just like my dad . . . seriously he launches into rants about this frequently, have to say I kind of agree with him

Here its hard to find automatics, saying that Diesels are more popular than petrols here too, and we drive on the left hand side of the road

Kind of like backwards land compared to America :D

My father recently bought a German car, and it doesn't even shift on the console. It's this lever near the steering wheel with a button on it. It's like the most awkward thing ever to drive, because you keep reaching down to put it in gear, and it's just this lever. With a button.
