More Test Drives....

[skorpion317]

Well, I still never got around to driving some of the cars on my Test Drive list. Here's what's still left:

Dodge - SRT4
Ford - Mustang GT
Pontiac - GTO
Mazda - RX-8
Nissan - 350Z

Now, I know I can get a 350Z and an RX-8. The other three are not so definite.

Does anyone have any suggestions or requests? I'll do my best to drive every car and report on each one.

when i was high school/college age i used to walk into dealerships with a tie pulled down adn the top button on my shirt undone and tell them that i was looking fro a new car and my dad gave me a 35k budget.
about then the sales persons eyes pop out of their head and you can drive whatever you want. hehe

I brought my G/F along with me. We acted as if we were a young married couple. Mos of the salesman were very accomodating, especially the guy who let us drive a Lancer Evo for a half hour.

where are you getting the money for these cars? and if your parents are shooting down a thirdgen, how in the hell do you think you're gonna swing a brand new car with a lot more horsepower. it sounds to me like you're not being too realistic here man.

hes just driving them to drive them, not to choose which to buy...

i'm just driving the cars for fun. I have no intention whatsoever of buying any of these cars. I'm also giving reviews of these cars, which could help people who may be thinking of buying them make a decision.

I attempted to do that for about 3 days over the summer, until I got tired of being hassled by the salesman every day :evil:



word of advice..... if you work at a dealership, never walk around the lot if you have a giant, open herpes sore on your mouth. what a horrible site, i went running in the opposite direction :shock:

[BigAls87Z28]

SRT10 Ram is about 50 large...and not many dealers have them, and that Rumble Bee is so/so.

How about Magnum/300C? Other cars...lets see...Mazda3 is neat as well, and see if you can get yourself behind the wheel of the amazing Ford 500.....:roll:

I've driven the 300C a few times already. I like the two wheel drive one MUCH better than the all wheel drive version. Its a quick car when you think about how much it weighs. After I drove one of those, I drove a PT Cruiser vert with the 2.4 turbo motor and a maual tranny. that was just as fast if not faster than the 300, but talk about torque steer! I almost crashed because I wasn't expecting it!

[Savage_Messiah]

I liekd the hemi C except I dont liek how narrow the windows are. Mazda 3, bleh, :ghey:. There's a few SRT10 Rams at Motor World on 4W

[skorpion317]

i doubt a dealer would let me drive a Ram SRT-10. a Magnum or 300C, i could do.

I may try to go for a CTS-V. a nearby dealer has a nice silver one that's been sitting on the lot for a little while. I think they might let me take it out for a spin.

doubtful

doubtful

doesn't mean i'm not gonna try :lol:

i know exactly what i'm gonna say:

"My dad doesn't know much about cars, but he's interested in buying a Cadillac....."
