Every Daewoo should have made it (I've done between 10-15 cylinder heads on those from broken timing belts(

It's called Chevrolet now!


Just imagine, some girl says "I drive a Chevy", you go outside with her, and it's a fucking Daewoo with a Chevy badge.

Happens here all the time

not realy

lol

all these eco boxes constrain me in my desire to go 146 mph (thats all my transmission would let me)

You can't tell what fun it is to brake down from that speed to the average 60 mph they do on the Autobahn, after they decided to overtake a truck (which is doing 60 as well, go figure)

sometimes I want laser guns

I just wanted to say that list is actually made by Car and Driver, not Yahoo. I saw this yesterday from Jalopnik/Autoblog that I check daily.

Dishonorable Mention: The 10 Most Embarrassing Award Winners in Automotive History - Feature/Best/Worst Lists/High Performance/Hot Lists/Reviews/Car and Driver - Car And Driver

Oh yeah, and while were at it, its a life goal of mine to take my Supra when "finished" to Germany on the Autobahn and the Nurburgring
