A moderately attractive or even plain looking girl looks really hot if she's behind the wheel of a 1980s Subaru? Interesting phenominon.

I have a 1995 Buick Park Avenue Ultra. When I go to start it up it starts and then die. You can hear it start completely but then quits. You can step on the gas pedal thinking you can give it some gas to go on but it wont rev its like the fuel system is shutting off. The thing is you can try another key and it will start up------sometimes. The starter and the tumbler have been replaced and I was given new keys with new a code on the key since the car has the pass key system.

What are the benefits of bi-amping a set of comonents?

I currently have a 4 channel amp powering front and rear speakers. I dont like how the rear speakers sound with the front speakers. I like the true stereo imaging I get from only having the fronts connected. Should I bridge the channels on my amp to power the front components? Or should I bi-amp them? Or should I just leave it with the rears disconneted? Im am eventually going to test this all my self, but was basically wondering the benefits of bi-amping.

Thanks

I'm thinking specifically of a craft in the news today, lifted by helium balloons. A very simple "micro-plan" (with fan propulsion) can be made using helium balloons to attain lift, and I believe I'd like to do that. If state matters, I'm in Pennsylvania.

My friend hit my car the other day. I drive a 2006 Scion tC. We were parked side-by-side in a driveway, and he was partially boxed in. He tried to back out of a spot he was never going to get out of, and he ended up swiping my rear bumper and a tiny bit of my rear fender. He was being a huge idiot. Now, I've gotten a few estimates. I received one from a friend who works at a Toyota/Scion dealer, and he has hookups with the body repair guy, and he estimated $300 to pop out my bumper and fender, paint, and all that. The hang up is that the guy at the dealer can't do any work until July 21st, two weekends from now, and I want my car back ASAP. So I went to three other shops, and was quoted at $1300, $1500, and $1700. If I wait for the guy at the dealer, my friend will pay out of the pocket. If I go to any other body shop, we'll have to file an insurance claim. If I go to the dealer, the accident won't go on a Carfax report, but if I go anywhere else, it will. What's the best option?

Is it any good? Is it a gimmick, all this composites stuff, anyway I think the bigger pax windows will be a real hit.

I work evenings and when I come home most days I don’t find any parking space outside my house. Today I came home and found a car that I don’t recognise as of my neighbours and a taxi parked outside my house. This taxi seems to be parked nearly every night outside my house. I couldn’t find parking space outside my house and had to park my new car somewhere else. I was so piss#d off I was going to slash the tires of the taxi. Can I report the taxi or does he have a right if he pays road tax, I live in the UK.

I have a 2000 Chevy Malibu and never cared that levels 1 & 2 stopped working for almost 2 years now but now levels 3 & 4 don't work. Has anyone else had this problem and what does it cost to fix? Thanks so much!
