"Q: i have to say this car is an awesome ride, the guys at pimp my ride did a great job with this hooptie. i do think its jacked up for you to get the hook up and then try to sell it for so much. atleast donate part of it to a good charity or somthing. what go's around comes around. have a good one. jon,
A: The car's opening bid is 'so much' because the car's value is 'so much'. And I completely agree with you on the fact that what goes around comes around. That's how God works. Definitely NOT someone to mess around with. I can assure you that whatever I get will not go towards something like Starbucks everyday or cocaine to snort off of a stripper's breast regions. Things need done."
What's the value of a used 1986 Century? Like $500 in good shape? At least, I wouldn't give more than that.

Hm..those caps with the digital voltage readout fail all the time. If that is actual voltage with a 200 Amp H.O. alt and 4 extra batts.....the alt is definitely shot.
Cool car though. I love the funky pup pink, like so.

You know, if Buick would have gotten a clue and produced this:

you could get some serious tang in it. THAT'S a Buick
It's sad that American automakers can make gorgeous concepts that seem like the perfect perception of what a car should be, then if it makes production it turns into a cheap looking pile of crap. Lincoln had a Continental concept a couple of years ago that way droolworthy. I could understand if the car can't look like that because of a price point, but it's just sheet metal, a Dodge Neon is shaped the same way that an Aston Marton DB9 is.

They planned on building that car on the Zeta platform (w/ Camaro), then they axed the Zeta platform to push their trucks and SUVs across. Their trucks do need a serious improvement, but I haven't seen a lot of promise from the upcoming trucks. Still not the appeal of an F-150 or Ram.

I liked the 2002 Chevy trucks. After that they are junk.
Not a huge fan of the F-150, but the F-250's really get my gears turning. The dodges are alright, but they need to work on their drivetrains. The cummins is the only thing i like about the dodges.

I'm waiting on the new Super Duty (2007, don't know if that's the model year or the actual year). Getting a new 6.4L Twin Turbo diesel and the frame is a beefed up version of the fully boxed frame you see on the new F-150. Gets interior update and I think more exterior styling updates as well. Though the current Super Duty is pretty sexy as it is, it just looks like a truck.
