questions about my 2 nakmichi cd500's

I drive a Grand Prix GT. NON supercharged but I've done a few things to it.

are you serious? you have a grand prix and youre giving me a lesson on cars?

so youre driving something like this:

which cant accelerate, cant go around a corner, cant brake, has suspension like my grandmothers mattress, and an interior filled with more cheap plastic than my recycling bin... and ive got a "rice burner" that i should sell because why... its not American? sorry but id rather drive something that doesnt feel like a rental car.

maybe get over your fear and try some sushi... you may just see the the light.

by the way, the car was built in a wind tunnel. it has a coefficient of drag of .29 (thats extremely low) which makes it very slippery through the air at high speeds. try this in a grand prix (by the way that car has not been modified too far from stock):

I think theres a difference though. I wont deny that the beetle is a chick car. But the miata is dollar for dollar the best roadster you can buy. Girl car or not, its a great track car out of the box.

yeah id admit they are a little "girly" or whatever... IDK i havent done much to mine besides putting really wide tires on it, lowering it/stiffening it up, and the front and rear lower air dams, but it definitely looks alot meaner than it used to. all in all i have to say of everything ive driven its the only one that is guaranteed to put a smile on my face. while its not the most powerful it loves to rev, and goes around curves like a go kart (and it sips gas instead of swallowing it). thats my official review //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

by the way (back on topic briefly) it seems that the amps and antenna get the same signal at the same time, which begs the question... why have two separate wires coming from the nakamichi harness if the signals are just on/off?

Its funny how adam71 wants nothing to do with something if he can't run in circles for a thousandd posts.

I was so close to buying a na 91 rx7, but went with an 05 impreza instead. I grew up loving american muscle, and still do, but there is a lot of beauty in the rx7's. Comparing Pontiacs fleet car to a piece of automotive history is sad. Hopefully someday I'll be able to own an Iroc-Z and an rx7. It's not about RICE it's about appreciating a wonderful machine. Sorry, still off topic but I had to show my support.
