I'm back on the hunt for another Cobra, and decided I wanna go big or go home. It doesn't matter if the car is coupe or convertible, just as long as it has a whipple/kb blower, and not just a ported Eaton. I'd like the miles to be under 40k for obvious reasons. I'm located in middle TN so being...
So I'm debating getting rid of my 08 BMW 335 for something with a v8 and some muscle under the hood. Something with factory forced induction is always a plus, because of the mod factor. My 335 is an automatic, which is the biggest reason I wanna get rid of it. I'm just bored and wanna row the...
I had the pleasure of driving a Ferrari F430 Spyder today, and it got me thinking, what is everyone's most exciting car you've ever driven? I had a Cobra for 2 years and while that was a very quick car and the exhaust/supercharger whine was intoxicating, there's just something about a Ferrari...
So I'm buying a cheap vehicle to teach my girlfriend how to drive stick, because my next car is gonna be a stick, and she needs to be able to drive it. I had a pullied/intake/exhaust 03 Cobra for a little over 2 years, and she never drove it because I didn't feel comfortable teaching her on a...
I'm interested in teaching my girlfriend how to drive stick. That way, when the time comes when I want another toy she'll be on board with it being a stick. We haven't lived in this area of the country for all that long, so we don't know anyone that drives a stick that would let us borrow it...
I've been toying with the idea of trying to get a job with an aftermarket tuning company, but wanted to know what everyone's experience has been with this type of thing. The type of companies I'd be looking at would be places like Modular Powerhouse (when they existed and Tim was there)...
My girlfriend got an Ipad 2 this morning, and I was browsing the market seeing what was new, and came to the conclusion that I like the Android Market far more than the App Store. Almost every app that I got free in the Android Market, were several dollars in the App Store. Take Angry Birds...
I'm looking at possibly going down to Florida over the summer and taking care of some snowbirds cars while they're at their summer home up north. I'd stop by every couple weeks and make sure the tire are at full pressure, the battery is charged, and let the car run a little to make sure...
Hey guys, so I took my BMW 335xi into my local dealership to get the fuel pump recall done, and I get it back and the bottom of the driver's side door is completely bent from the bottom up about 4-5 inches. It appears that a tech tried to lift the car with the door open, and one of the lift...
I know there's probably a lot of people with winter homes in Florida that store their cars for the summer while they're at their other homes, and people that store some cars in their winter home while they're at their summer homes in Florida. I know it's a pain to store a car for months at a...
How do you guys feel about wagons these days? My girlfriend is looking to purchase a new (to her) vehicle in the next few months, and we're kicking around the idea of suv's and wagons. She has to carry a lot of stuff for her job, so she needs the utility. She has her heart set on an suv, but...
I'm looking to start a business in the next few months, and wanted to get an idea of what a website would cost to serve my needs. I don't wanna say too much about the business because it hasn't launched yet, but I'll just say that the website will need to allow customers to sign up for a free...
Today I got an email from Groupon advertising "Half-Day Supercar Rentals in Cambridge." You can choose either a 911 Carrera for $59, a Ferrari 360 Modena for $241, or a Lamboghini Gallardo for $301. Would you guys do this if you lived closer, or are you going to do it now that you've heard...
Ok, so a little background on this question. I work at a Mercedes dealership in Boston, and today my boss comes in in a 2010 Rolls-Royce Ghost. I didn't get the chance to drive it, but I sat in it and it got my wondering, why a Rolls-Royce? I got home today and looked up the price of this...
As much as it hurt to do so, I sold my 03 Cobra in favor of a BMW 335xi. My Cobra was a fantastic daily driver in Tennessee, where I'd been living for the past 2 years, but I moved a Boston a few months back and holy crap are the roads here AWFUL. If you've never been to Boston, just picture...
Hey guys, since it's the summer I'd like to head to some 1/4 mile or 1/8th mile (preferably 1/4) on the weekends for fun. Where are the nearest ones and how is the track prep? I've never run the Cobra on the strip, but may wanna give it a shot, or I may just go to watch. Anyway, have a good...
I've been kicking around the idea of putting the Cobra up for sale (I know, I should be banned for saying that) but was concerned about the "tire-kickers" who just wanted to drive a fast car w/o any intention of buying it. How have you guys dealt w/ that, and what's the best way to prohibit...
So here's the story, I just moved to the New England area and I'm just doing a little research in preparation for the nasty winters we see up here. I'm looking to see what everyone thinks would be the best awd dd for the money. A few things, it has to have awd, has to be under $15k bc I may...
Hey guys, I searched and couldn't find what I was looking for. I just moved here a couple weeks ago, and was wondering how long I had to get my license/plates changed over to Mass. plates, and how often an emissions test is required. In Tennessee only the counties in and around Memphis and...
Hey guys, my girlfriend and I just moved to Somerville from Tennessee so I'm looking to find some cool car (mustang or otherwise) guys and gals to meet up with at car shows and whatnot. I've got a silver 10th Anniversary Cobra with pulley/intake/exhaust, so finding some other cobras around...
I'll be moving to the Boston area with my girlfriend in the next month or so. Her first day of work is June 21st, so we'll be heading up there pretty soon. My dilemma is that I don't know what to do as far as tires on my 03. Both of my rear tires are starting to wear and are getting a little...
Hey guys, my gf might be getting a really good job in Boston, and I'm wondering if it's possible to daily drive a Mustang (03 Cobra) in the Boston/New England area. I've lived in Tennessee the entire time I've owned the car, so snow hasn't been much of an issue. I know New England gets tons of...
I've got an 03 cobra with 450rwhp but the creaks and clunks during lower speeds is starting to annoy me more and more. I'm throwing around the idea of either a bmw 335 or mercedes e55 amg. I'm worried that they wouldn't have that real seat of the pants acceleration that I LOVE in the cobra...
So I just got home after getting 2 tickets in 1 traffic stop, both my fault, not complaining. The 1st violation is living in TN longer than 30 days without getting a TN license, and the 2nd is for turning left illegally. I'm guilty of both violations, so I'm not looking at a way to fight it...
Hey guys, so on my way back home today I tried to eject a disk in my stock 6 disk cd player and all that would pop up is "CD Error." Now it won't even let me play any cd's or eject them. The CD player looks like it's open, like it's trying to eject or load a cd, but won't do it. I searched...
