I heard from somebody a couple of weeks ago that said the news said Elvis is still alive and is waiting for an opportunity to show himself to the public. Don't know all the details, but they were saying that there was a fake funeral and a waxed body or something was used in the casket. I know it sounds like complete BS, but who knows.......
 
That would be like saying that Kurt Cobain is still alive, god rest his soul.
 
GULLIBLE ISN'T IN THE DICTIONARY?

(runs to dictionary)

Wait a minute...

Oh, this is an older version.

(runs to store and buys new dictionary)

Wait a minute...
 
it's total BS, is like saying 2Pac is still alive, i know lots of people say he is but no one could survive gettin shot about 4 times
 
Yeah! I was going to say an NSX or an S2000 would be more than welcome to snuggle up next to the super Sube in our garage.
 
Honda has made a lot of nice cars: NSX, S2000, ITR, RSX, etc. The list goes on and on and on, but I guess that's all just an opinion, which we're all entitled to.;)

Grrrr...a lot of pro-Honda material in this thread. Grrrr...I could go on for days. But I won't. So I'll say this:

The Los Angeles Police Department is responsible for Notorious B.I.G.'s death.

Well, if it makes you feel better I talked my partner out of an Accord.

On the other point, I almost wish I cared. Almost, but not quite. I guess he's Notorious RIP now...
 
Yaay! You went against an Accord for a Subaru! My kind of fella!

And ON the second point, anyone who's followed the case knows this is right, right? I mean, it's so damn obvious even to the L.A.P.D. How many Impala SS's are licenced in that two-story town anyway?
 
Actually, there was a bit of a story there. We were replacing our 3 and a bit year old Holden Vectra, and we buy mid-sized sedans (don't want a 4WD truck, and we need to cart friends and family around so no coupes - so no Monaro next time around...).

The deal with us is that she has the car lease through work, and I, being the car guy, come up with a short list of cars (usually four to six) for us to look at, with one or two preferred cars from that list.

Having done the sums we knew what we were looking at, and the Liberty/Legacy was the very early favourite. From memory, the list was the Liberty/Legacy, another Vectra (what's the point of a new car if you're just going to get another one), the Mazda 626, the Honda Accord, the Peugeot 406 and the Citroen Xantia (hey, I had a quota to fill!).

The Pug, Citroen, Vectra (although the manual V6 hatch made a late run) and 626 fell out very early. I pushed for the Accord to be de-listed as well, but my partner stuck out and wanted to look more closely.

Now, as we know in the US the Accord squares off against the Camry. In Australia, Honda fancies itself as a bit of a prestige brand so the Accord is pushed up level. It's quite cynical (although not VW New Beetle cynical) and I don't much care for Honda Australia because of this.

So - I put my foot down. If we're test-driving the Accord, then we're test-driving the Camry.

It was then I found out that apparently we have an image to maintain, so test-driving the Camry (the prospect of owning one) were not in the frame. Scratch the Accord!

Turns out the Accord in the spec we wanted would have been about $7k dearer than the Liberty/Legacy - and I can't say I was impressed with the quality of the interior.

Very funny - great example of relationship dynamics.

Oh how I hate that car.

We use them as promotional vehicles here - a purpose to which they are, it must be said, ideally suited, particularly in the 'poke in the eye' yellow ours are (corporate colours are yellow and blue) - and I had to pedal one around for a couple of weeks.

The VW 2 litre is a shocker, and in auto form wouldn't pull a wheeled office chair across a marble floor. And they truly do redefine space inefficiency.

Add to that indifferent front drive handling and lumpy ride, and even the plastic flower can't make you smile...
 
Totally agree. Not to mention one heck of a marketing nightmare for Volkswagen in a few years when they've got to face slow sales and either a product cut or a re-design. Going to be fun.
 
Yeah. I was watching the news, and I saw a "supposed" picture of Elvis. They said he took the name of his twin brother or somethin...

Um...really, it depends on where you're shot, the size of the bullet, what the bullet did once it entered your body, etc. For example, you can't die from being shot 4 times in the arm or the hand unless you just let the wounds fester or something, or let yourself bleed to death, which would take a long time and quite a bit of trouble on your part.

Quite a few people have taken shotgun blasts and lived, and that's like what, 30-40 miniature bullets hitting you at once?


Not saying 2pac is alive, he's dead, just like all the other people that have died over the years ;)
