When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

I've travelled in one of them - we were on a private road and the owner decided that he'd never really floored it (too scared!) - so he
did - and the horizon disappeared!
He sold it in the end, 'cos it was fun in the dry, terrifying in the wet.

I have been out in a friends 5.7l Chevy Camaro. That was a nice car and very fast. Took it out down one of the industrial estates one Sunday afternoon
for some fun. It was videoed, but I dont have it handy unfortunately!
Still prefer the Trans Am Firebird tho

To be brutally honest, the car had a vast bonnet, a cockpit smaller that a Capri's, and a boot you couldn't get a briefcase into (due to
the vast fuel tank underneath). The finish of the inside was only as good as a 70s/80s Capri, as well (i.e. basic).
Made a beautiful noise though...

Sweet! A classic that.
How about a Nova? (And no I'm not talking Vauxhall kind)
