			I just came back from it...... I also went to china town afterwards, since my car was in a parking garage about a block away from there. i had no idea it was chinese newyears. i got too close to a fire cracker, and now i can barely hear anything...... the c6 was nuts, i hope they keep that concept, that its completely different. Did u hear a car honk? cuz i honked a horn in a mini cooper, and it worked for some reason. I had so much attetion. :lol: i was the kid like, 15 years old with a white sweatshirt, u probably saw me because i took my pic in a carerra like 7 times......

			Next Saturday. When the crowds die down. Last year I went during the Eagles playoff game - no one was there. Fun times. I got a 'new' digital camera, so I'll have many pictures as well.

Nice one!

Are going to get to drive it?

		IceDigger		Feb 1, 2004
			Naaa, don't like the thing. Looks really ugly to me. Wouldnt be caught dead in it. It's a chick car.

		mal		Feb 1, 2004
			Chick car? Hell no! While it may not be a 'muscle car' they are still very cool.

			In america...they aren't cool. Might as well be driving a Jetta, haha. They would be kinda fun to drive I would think though....but I am where Ice is, wouldn't be caught dead in it (plus if I was dead....I wouldn't fit right...kinda small)

			I think the only car that can outgun a CooperS in the slalom is a Porsche 944. They are REALLY fun to drive. You can't get that kind of cornering in other cars. They powerslide like nobody's business.

		Pearl Jammzz		Feb 2, 2004
			my Maro handles like a dream, haha. WTF is "the slalom"? You mean the 1/4 mile or sumthin? If so, there are lots of cars that can beat it. Anyone have specs on the mini cooper? horse/torque/weight? (edit) Can you fix yer link to the pics Ice? thanks .

		Pearl Jammzz		Feb 2, 2004
			Cuz, they are ugly, haha. Some people like em but I find em ugly. Jettas aren't all that bad looking but coopers......yuck! They are juts hidious IMO. It's all a matter of opinion I guess. Yes some cars are faster stock...but that doesn't rlly matter cuz you can always do stuff to em to make them faster. I have seen 1,300 horse vettes, that's insane! There really is no need for that much power except to race and to show it off. Whatever you liek I guess....it just like music, sum poeple like certain bands, others dont. All opinion.

			Some of us are to big to fit in a mini cooper. Hell, I have never been comfortable in a sports car.

		mtxblau		Feb 2, 2004
			Power and handling are two different concepts, B...pearljamz^3.

		IceDigger		Feb 2, 2004
			I can both outcorner and outrun my friends 2004 mini cooper easily and he even has it supercharged. He got the package with everything on it. $5k for a measly 60 extra hp from the supercharger aint worth it in my book. My car doesnt even have a supercharger or turbo, if it did ....
