Well, I didn't exactly see a category, to post introductions, so i decided to do it here, since I'm a "Rookie" ROFL

I'm 18, my first car was a automatic 97 civic, got out of that soon and jumped into the first black/gray 5spd eclipse I came across. It was an RS, that was the car that Taught me how to drive... very fun car. especially fun in the twisties...

Since then I acquired my first piece of "Modern Muscle" well, I guess thats what you would call it, well maybe not... it didn't have a big burly V8, nor was it from the late 60s or early 70s. It was from the Middle 80s! and a small V6 to boot. Yeah, it was a Grand National.
Sure the car was lightning quick (to me at least, since driving the RS) at first, then after riding in a few LS1 cars, my brothers 400whp SRT-4

it started to feel slower every day. Then came an intake, boost controller, and 3" exhaust, and boy did it put a smile on my face. I was grinning from ear to ear, so far Ive taken down these cars...

- 2003 Evolution 8 (0-60 run guy didn't want to break his t-case so didn't launch hard) He pulled me like mad after 60... of course of was on ET Streets

- My Bros 400whp SRT-4, yeah thats a 0-75mph race that I own him in, but... by the time he catches me, hes doing about 100.... flying past me.
- 6spd LS1 Camaro. Til about 40, then he caught me however, his buddys automatic reemed me a new hole.
- countless other ricers that called my car a monte carlo.

Nows im torn, between... LS1 Car, Cobra (Non S/C), Eclipse GSX.

Since the LS1 is far too expensive,.. X that out.

I was about to hop in the saddel of a SN95 Cobra with the 4v DOHC 4.6L but.. er... uhm.. little bit more then i have... not really wanting payments.

Anyway, thats what drove me wanting an eclipse. My buddy, AWDSM. The car was a low 13, High 12sec car.. and boy it felt... SOOOOOOOOO fast... His car is gone now... parted out... I wanted to make one a lil bit faster than his. hoping that will happen. I now search for a low mileage, good condition, Black 95 GSX, or a low mileage good conditon 97-99 Gray, Red, Black, or White. GSX.

You all will see my grand national for sale soon enough. As soon as I reach 25 posts.
It will be for sale.

[email protected]

Or Trade for a good condition 95 GSX with E-prom Perferably STOCK

Until next time... Good Day

ok what does this post signify???? im drunk and i dont even understand it. do you want a DSM becuase its "fast" or do you want a DSM because of the loving tradition and instantaneous freinship that owning a DSM carries with it?? You shouldnt be comparing a AWD to a 95 Cobra. Totally different car. Once you understand this website you might consider posting here some more. thanks buddy.

P.S. I <3 DSM's

Um, ok i could go ahead and apply the old fashioned line.. "typical DSMer" however since I am a DSMer at heart, and far less "cocky" than you. Time for your Edjewmakayshun sun.

For the first line. DSM's are NOT by any means,.. FAST from the factory. It is ones goal, to make it become, fast, as in the "loving tradition and instantaneous freinship that owning a DSM carries with it" However I wasnt exactaly comparing an AWD to a SN95 Cobra. Besides the 95 Cobra, has a 5.slow in it. 96-98 Have the Modular 4.6L 32v DOHC engines. Sound better IMO too. Comparing an AWD to a Mod-Motor Powerd Cobra is like comparing appels to oranges, should not be done. However the price range is similar.

Now, Understanding? wait did you say once I understand? I do understand this web site. Ive been "Interacting" well, not posting, but reading this web site for years. And I dont think it is up to you to suggest when I can and can not post here.

This post was intended to be a "Introduction" not a comparision.

I think it is you who needs to learn how to understand.

In Anycase. Instead of typing that pointless paragraph trying to impress the rest of the dsm crowd, only made you out to be an ass.

All that is needed to say is "Welcome to the forums"

You = :notgood:
 
Yeah. We don't do street racing here. Or, for that matter, For Sale adverts outside of the classifieds.

Welcome aboard. I suggest you read the rules.
