Well in the 90's I used to shit and piss myself on a regular basis, I don't miss that. However, there will probably be a time later in my life were I am again doing those things
No good cars?SodaDew said:
The Mazda RX-7? Toyota Supra? Lamborghini Diablo? Ferrari F50? The Nissan 300ZX/240SX/Skyline(doesn't count for most Americans because we could never get one, but as a gamer, we had them in Gran Turismo, and that is more than the average American could say back then)? The mid-90s Cadillac Deville is a car I dreamed about owning for over a decade, and now that I have one, I can honestly say that it was worth the wait. I love that car. How about the Mitsubishi 3000GT, Lancer Evolution (still not in America back then, but they were amazing), and the Eclipse GT and GTX (The GT had a turbo, and the GTX was just a Lancer Evo with a smaller body.)? And if you like the Eclipse, you are required to like the Ford Probe, and Dodge Stealth, which both shared a frame and chassis with the Eclipse.
WHAT ABOUT THE MACLAREN F1, THE FIRST CAR THAT COST $1 MILLION?! THE DODGE VIPER! The Jaguar XJ220? What about the Acura NSX? That car was brand new in 1991, and was still worth $30,000 when I got to sit in one for the first time in 2003.
And the thing that offends me most about your statement:
The Nissan R34 Skyline was born in 1999, and is my most desired car of all time!
The car I am saving up for now that I have my 1994 Deville: A 1998 S14 240SX.
Why is that? While most of the 90's and 2000's cars suffer from the problem of being front wheel drive (even my beloved Deville has this problem) the 240SX is very much a rear wheel drive sports car with the Car enthusiast in mind.
I don't get how you can all dwell on the bad stuff from that period. Honestly, nostalgia sure aint what it used to be.
The one thing I hated the most was politicians and the church trying to ban every film and video game that came out, which was in the news every single day in the 90's. When your local moral crusader closes your cinema down its more than a little annoying to be forced to travel nearly 100 miles to see Reservoir Dogs and Trainspotting.
Also curtain hair cuts and waistcoats on boys looked awful and girls used to put so much mousse in their hair you could hammer nails with it.

Your list is full of super cars. The average car was butt ugly for the early-mid 90's, although there was an improvement towards the end of the decade.Spade Lead said:

I see. And which of your favorite cars of the 2000s has an entire magazine dedicated to it, with no other cars allowed on the cover or discussed within it? None? Look, I hate most Mustangs in principle, but you cannot deny that the 5.0 Mustang is the single most popular car for any sport, ever produced. I have a few Chevy designated magazines, but not one of them is just 350 or 427 only, they are literally just, "Hey we bought this '69 Corvair, and are dropping a 454 in it for fun, watch what we do!" With Corvair and 454 replaced with the car of choice and the motor of choice for each particular project. And none of them cover modifying the 4.9 liter motor in my car.Owyn_Merrilin said:Here, have that picture of a '92 mustang again:
The 5.0 is arguably the ugliest Mustang since the '70s, but it is still more poplar than anything you drive.
And that has exactly what to do with the way it looked? So it apparently handles well and is hot roddable. That's not what the people in the thread were complaining about.Spade Lead said:I see.
