I give the hell up

I dont think a guy who thought a tempo was beautiful (edit: and sinister) is really qualified to determine what is ugly and what aint

you have to admit, its one of the nicer ones man. and the Mystic Cobra would be nicer if it was like a 2000. or 93, or better yet, 1969.

and in the 1/8 mile it does 11.115 at 62 mph lol. so its like 10.5 0-60 or something like that.:laugh:
 
I had an 87 that looked just like it. A tempo never really was sure what it wanted to be, it was a wannabe mustang, and I thought the mustangs of the 80s were among the ugliest ever made. Honestly, I hated tempos, yes yours was clean and good looking, for a tempo, but being the best looking ugly chick at the prom aint gonna make you prom queen.

seriously though, why is my Wife's ATX tinkmobile faster than your MTX? They are both zetecs. Did she inadvertently stumble on a secret power adder? Does having tinkerbell seat covers, floor mats, license frames, steering wheel cover, Visor CD holder and stickers/decals add horsepower on a zetec? I think thats all the tinkerbell crap she has in there... there might be more, thats not counting her tinkerbell purse and keychain though, or days she is wearing one of her tinkerbell sweaters.

TINKERBELL = +25 HP on a zetec?
 
its like the ricer theroy

lol the ricer poster...reminded me yesterday i was driving ahead of my gf and talking on the phone with her then burst out laughing when i saw a 4 door chevy lumina bone stock with a huge ass fast and furious park bench wing...:shocked:
 
No see what gets me going is when you're sitting at a red light and you hear a bee hive screaming down the street. Or a giant zipper.

Wet fart?
Vibrator?

I mean the sound quality is what amuses me.

The mental image of this made me laugh REALLY hard just now...is it at all possible to get a picture of this?
 
what did the tinkermoblie run in the quarter mile? does it have power everything? how much does the car weigh and her lol. i think i might be a little bigger and my car might be a bit heavier too.

Bigger, no. Same car. Heavier, maybe by 50 lbs. Give it up to not knowing how to drive. That is my excuse for it. :laugh:

my wife weighs ~105 lbs when she isnt pregnant. It is power everything with an automatic, although I am the only one who drives it fast ever and I weigh ~220 at that time and ~250 now.

and yeah rollinstylee I will take pictures of the massive tinkerbell goodness tomorrow. Although everything is dirty right now since she hasnt cleaned her car since winter began so if any of you are ever in vermillion, dont tell her I took pictures cause she will not let me have any for weeks.

And WTF CRGkart44 I have a body kit, neon(took it out a little while ago), decals, a loud muffler and body colored rims.... I happen to know the body colored rims add at least 60hp

You can chirp the 13" tires out back in 5th on the Cobra. It's got a tad bigger motor though...:laugh:

idk I like the underglow.

I might put new leds back under sometime. Its pretty when you are driving out in the middle of nowhere.

i had underglow on my POS saturn... then a shop cut all my wires:mad:

anyways... it was pretty cool to turn on nothing but fogs and the underglow driving at night with no one around.
 
I wire mine into my marker lights and have a switch for them. That way if I forget to shut them off they go off with the lights, and I can still shut them off if I drive into a state where I can get ticketed
