Comment on My convertible Porsche has roof leaks, has this happened to anyone else with a soft top? by lincman90

Have all of the top seals checked. Some of them may be drying up, which would not allow a good seal. You may also want to check to make sure the windows are properly aligned in the regulator.

In addition, if I rememeber right, that car slightly lowers the window when you open the door. You may want to check to see if that mechanism/feature is working properly.

Good luck!!!

Comment on Fast Cars – The American Muscle by Aussie Bloke

I’d stick to the foreign stuff. My brother used to have a FIAT 124 Sport (hardtop) – this car was factory stock with a 1600cc engine (2 valves per cylinder) and carbs. It could do redline in 5th gear at130 mph (I was a passenger at the time.) My Focus could barely do that when it was new, and it has a 2 litre engine and 4 valves per cylinder. Makes you wonder what went wrong…

Some American cars can do pretty good speeds in a straight line (because of that big hunk of cast iron in the front), but can’t handle the corners (because of that big hunk of cast iron in the front).

Remember, Corvettes currently race against Ferraris, with mixed results (win some, lose some), but Ferrari does it with almost half the engine size. And old-time muscle cars may accelerate well at first, but their top speed is severely limited by poor aerodynamics (even when modified.)

In any case, the fastest production cars (modified or not) at the moment are all European. Kind of says it all, don’t you think?

Acceleration = American muscle cars . they r only good for drag racing . Speed + handling + style + high tech + everything u could imagine = look no further than europeans especially the porsches . the porsche 911 is the most succesfull sport car in history .

American Muscle is best in a straight line but if you want to road race the Foriegn car will have the advantage as the American cars will be nose heavy and not want to turn as sharply as the foriegn cars thus the american has to let off more gas in a turn.
