:D Trying to start a new branch to this tree? I have no problem with car companies using a family styling platform. Pretty much each company out there has a signature style. Be it a signature grill, tail lights or roof line.

I agree, it's an 'extreme' car for sure!! however, when you have toothpaste, soda, printer paper, etc that are all labeled "extreme" it sort of diminishes the effect of the word. That's all I was saying. :D What's more, to actually put that on a badge and stick it to the fender? come...

You guys are funny. If that car had a German badge on the front of it you'd be drooling on it. Everyone complains that there's no RWD perfomance car options anymore. Then when one comes out it's dismissed before it's even been driven! As for Korean cars, my parents bought a Kia back in...

It's "Extreme" that's for sure. When will that marketing word go away?

Are you serious? That's all it takes? I had my car in the shop for the same thing and they replaced the window regulator. Who knows though, perhaps they performed the test outlined above and it failed. Either way, it was covered under warranty. Any news on the CEL/dead battery?

I don't know exactly what you mean by that, but I loved the LS in the snow. Throw some Blizzaks on her and drive with confidence! Also, getting married is the same thing as turning 25 as far insurance agents are concerned. I think you know what you need to do...

Hmmm....I've had a LOT of dead batteries and done a lot of jump starting on the LS. I never ended up with a CEL though. It's possible that it's unrelated to the battery.

well, I just planted the seed about using the 325i. Now I just need to water it and nurture it over the next few months and see if it ripens!! But it's gonna take more work than I had anticipated...It might be easier for you to buy a motorcycle!:D I'm thinking the 325i would be perfect for...

power/weight the 5.7 has slightly better numbers. it feels faster off the line but the LS feels like it pulls harder upper-mid to redline. I'd say, using my butt dyno, they feel very similar. However, I don't think the Magnum would be as much fun at a track day at BIR. The handling isn't as...

The Magnum has cleaner body lines than the Charger does, IMHO. I don't like the hump near the c pillar. There's something goofy about the styling around the rear wheel. I thought about an SUV, too. But I just couldn't bring myself to get one. Granted, this thing is about as close as you...

Man you'd think I just pi$$ed on your mom's leg or something. All I did was sell a car that was nothing but trouble since the day I owned it. Let's have a little perspective here. LEOV5, the next time you're at the car lot looking for an LS try looking inside the service bays! Based upon...

Yeah, Plan B was to keep the LS and continue pumping money into her. I probalby would have done that, too, but they gave me a pretty good deal on the MagWag so I rolled with it. Plus I got tired of driving the loaner Taurus/Milan/etc that they gave me.

Haha. Nah man, I live in the 'Burbs. They'd take my membership card away if I did something like that!! But these wheels would look jiggy on the MagWag!!

well, there's no doubt that the Magnum and the LS do not share the same focus group. I'll agree that the design of the interior, the dash specifically, is less than inspired. But the seats are pretty comfortable, the ride is pretty nice, the power is good, the stereo is decent, there's room...

17". all 4 are in great shape. Only on the road for one summer. I sold the car with the stockers on it so I have no use for these.
