My new Daily Driver

Spinning the tires is for going slow...

I would get a tlock in there asap Chris, Vics are no fun in the winter without one.
 
My Mark won't:( .


Honestly, matting it and watching the tires go up in a blaze is just about the sweetest thing. I couldn't care if it went 0-60 in 8 seconds or 2.5 if I'm driving the car on the street. Tire spin, noise and being able to push the car to the limit through turns is what makes a car fun in my opinion.

My buddy's vic is a 2004 p71 with a factory 3.55 t/l, supposedly stock. It will leave 50ft of rubber with just aggressive throttle.
 
An 04 P71 will have a factory RAR of 3.27...

The 04 CVPI was the first year of the 250hp cars, they were much improved and were the last year not to have throttle by wire.
 
nice car but I still had to add that It would be so much nicer if it had a 4 valve man. I wanted to get one so bad but couldnt pass up the milage of the LS
 
If it had the 4 valve I couldnt afford it (Marauder). So far no complaints. Ive had it a month. There is nothing like a American big body RWD V8.
 
Just for info, my 02 P71 (PI 2v, 3L27 rear, OEM dual exhaust) was right around 4 tenths slower than my 94 Mark at the track - both bone stock. If I adjust to comparable density altitudes the difference would be about 2.5 tenths. This 01 with the intake/exhaust/tune would probably perform comparably to a first gen Mark IMO...
 
I bought a an 01 sage green metalic CV LX for my wife back in 04 with 32K old folk az miles on it. That car is ROCK SOLID, hauls luggage, kids, bikes and arse all at the same time and gets 25 MPG at the same time. You will LOVE that car
 
I don't really care...

If I had an LX or a HPP or Sport with 2.73's or 3.27's I would swap in 3.73 gears.... it just isn't worth it with the 3.55's I have.
 
I'm gonna bet you wont get pulled over for a longgggg time.

No rookie wants to pull over an unmarked. haha

I've been pulled over twice in my vic....

Same....

However, the first one was because my license plate light was out and a local officer "couldn't tell if it was a government plate or not."

The second I got some laser from a state cop who probably would've pulled me over even if I were local PD. :p
 
I havnt been pulled over yet. I know it will happen sooner or later thought. the window tint and tail light tint are not helping me at all in that dept. My right foot and loud exhaust dont help either. lol.

Im startin 2 like the full tinted windows. I dont really want to have the front taken off.
