i've seen alot of the 83-86 turbo coupes an 84-86 turbo xr7's for sale for cheap around here. remember, these are the light turbo thunderbirds.....that's why we make fun of glenn's car. [Image: biggrin.gif] j/k


I was really suprised when they weighed the car at E-town for the shootout. it was 3552lbs. with me and about 1/2 a tank of gas. I was fully expecting it to be around 3800lbs. I do see many claiming their's weight that much though. I didn't do anything to lighten the car and I'm not exactly small. [Image: biggrin.gif]

The question to the answer is "What is six times nine?", which shows that there is a fundamental problem with the universe.

(For those of you that don't understand the above, it is from either the second or third book of the inaccurately named five-book Hitchiker trilogy, by the late Douglas Adams. The remake of the movie will be out soon.)
