Which one would you take having the choice? A 1999 Cougar or a 2001 Grand-Am?? Overall for comfort, reliability, looks, and extras?? Thanks, Brett

In my line of work, I see all sorts of cars. VW's have some build quality issues. I would tend to stay away from GM cars, and Ford hasn't been too good lately. When did those Cougars come out? If you are looking at a first model year, I'd stay the heck away from it. It usually takes 3-4 years for the manufacturors to iron out all the problems.

What kind of money are you trying to spend? Certainly there are better options out there. Better gas mileage, etc. American cars tend to be big engined gas guzzlers. A nice turbo 4 gets better gas mileage, in general.

Those Cougars have the most uncomfortable seats on earth. My mother has one, my brother had one. They've been pretty reliable so far.

I just saw a new turbo the other day. It's the strangest thing, this.. My father's been taking me to the eye doctor every week for six weeks or so now. Every week, we see some other rare or very expensive sports car. We've seen a Ferrari 348, a Testarossa, the 911 Turbo, a brand new M3, and a brand new 500SL over the last 5 weeks. Usually I wouldn't see that much automotive coolness in my town for a year.. Except for Vipers. For some reason, we've got like 8 of them around..

Actually, I'm lusting after the Porsche GT2. But, like you all, I don't have 1/4 million dollars in the bank to buy a car.

Okay - so I'm reading Road & Track today, and they have an article on the new Mercedes SL55 - the AMG version. It's $125k. I'm thinking, if I had $125k to spend on a car, the last thing I would buy is a Mercedes. I'd opt for either a Porsche, or a Ferrari. What say you?

I can't believe you guys are so into cars. Where the hell are you going? Buy some damn gear and stay at home!

I drive a Ford POS and I'll probably buy another POS after this one. I'll spring on the stereo.
