im becoming ashamed...
well, i hate to say it, but my younger brother is becoming an import car owner. He has driven a camaro since he got his drivers license. Nice, american, muscle car. Well, not its going to be a 2000 acura integra type r all riced out. Im sticking trur to ford. My first vehicle was a 1968 Land Rover (which i still have). Then i got a 89 f350, then a 92 f350 now my 99 f350.
My brother will now be one of the damn ricers trying to race around town thinking he is invinsible...

im sorry 
do you have any thing that can put him to shame on the road (like an old muscle car). If so use it to help him remember...American Muscle will always previal and that ricers are just another wanna be fast car, like his.
Be a good big brother and give him so much crap that he'll come to his senses.
We are here for ya man

Families can be a real pain, can't they? Especially when they expect you to bail them out of jail in the middle of the night for racing that Acura against some undercover cop......GOOD LUCK!!

yes, he had the 5.7L in this camaro with a 6 speed. Good, loud, throaty flowmaster exhaust.
Kikwear, you are very right, but at least, i can go over a curb and drive it in the snow!

Yeah, just tell him that V8s are better constantly. He will hopefully begin to miss the V8 power. -wb

my little brother is saving up for a car right now. he doesnt give a flip about what it is, honda acura mitsu, he just wants somthing small and that has a radio. im just like dohh!!! but i still have hope, when i was installing my lift he seemed very interested, and when i would catch him looking, he would look away as if he didnt want me to know that he thought it was "cool". hopefully by the time he turns 16 i will have that degree along with a 6 figure income and can give him my truck so i dont have to be ashamed.

well, unfortunatly, its a 1.8L naturaly aspirated motor. Probably doesnt make more then 140hp
it might be ok with 1 person in it. but if he ever gets a passenger or 2 in there (if possiable) itll be slower then my land rover.
I do hope that the insurance will be unbarable for that.
Thank you fordfaggiole, i AM the better brother
