The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Comparison to what? I don't like the Cobra. I think it's ugly. The Buick GS and GSX and GN, now, there are some good lookin cars!!

you should be taken out back and beaten for that comment
Well, it's the truth...At least until somebody spends thousands upon thousands upon thousands to redo it...
Never really liked the Cobras anyway...
Yep...just looked at a picture of one...It's not a car that rings my bell...
With this car it's not about what the car looks like, it's all about the historic value. This thing could look like a turd with wheels but it still would be worth a fortune.
BTW. Burning yourself up is a hell of a way to go. Whatever happend to using a gun or ODing on a bunch of pills?

There are three ways to do things: the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way!
Isn't that just the wrong way?
Yeah, but faster!

It's pretty dumb if you ask me. I bet she felt like a horses @$$ lying there waiting to die like that!
Pills and other forms of poisening aren't good idea's either. You stand a better chance of surviving and being seriously messed up afterwards.
.45 under the chin, ot in your mouth = win.
BTW, I didn't notice the date on the article, but it is still a pretty crazy story. Plus with all the reposts lately i dont' think it's that big a deal.
