That's agorgeous car, I even like the colour.  White just looks like a fridge on wheels and red is just too, what's the word, kind of in your face :?

How on earth could that... Thing put a Chav Mobile Special in front a Dodge Charger? Teh Charger was a REAL Car, you had to wrestle it to get anywhere. Not like the Girly little Subaru that does all the work for you.

Traction Control, ABS, ESP ect... All may make driving Safer, but they also take the Feel and the Fun out of driving, the do all the work for you, hence why every Barry in the area wants to stick one in a field.

Anyone who thinks an Impreza or an Evo is better than a Charger or a superbird needs taking out and shooting, then burying along with their burberry hat.

Rant Over.
