Would you consider a Fox Body Mustang 'Old School'? I mean, they first came out in '79. That's over 25 years, they're antiques now (some of 'em)... thoughts? opinions?

Who should I get a quote from? Is ABC safe now that Shauna Webber is gone?

Power steering failures. I know I drive an HHR and that it sits on the same platform, but I am praying I lose my power steering. My car feels like they over boosted the power steering motor, I would rather manual steering than the over power steering in the HHR. ...

My buddy traded his '98 Volkswagen for a '95 BMW - an even trade, with no money changing hands. They simply exchanged titles. She needed an economy car and he wanted a boat... So how do things go down at the RMV when he goes in to put it in his name? Anyone ever done this? The girl who has...

Who has bought anything from them? Is there any other costs besides the shipping? How was the service? Shipping speed?

The un-arm button popped out of my Ungo alarm remote and I lost it. Does anyone know of a website, other than eBay, to buy aftermarket alarm remotes? I vaguely remember someone else posting a site that sold cheap aftermarket key fobs. Do any of the local car stereo places still carry Ungo? I...

I need a car battery so I wanted everyones opinion of which batteries are the best to buy in terms of years of service?, thanks. :)

I thought I saw a thread about this but I couldn't find it. Has anyone bought a car in the US and driven across the border? What was your experience? Do you only pay taxes and customs when you register your car in your home province?
