I thought this thread was about Hot Rod Magazine printing an article about (all) G-Bodied cars that just happened to have a picture of something that looked like a GN, probably the most recognized and ledgendary G-Body out there. Perhaps that was the reason for using the picture they did, albeit a bit misguided.
A little unflattering? Yes.
Intentionally disrepectful? I can't say for sure.
Being a proud TR owner, I too take exception to how the article portrays the GN, but I'm just not certain there was any ill intent by the magazine or it's staff here.
That said, I would like to address herooftheday.
Sir, you're curently on a crash course in a place where it's not all that hard to quickly gain acceptance.
In your attempts to defend your postition/comments towards others you are becoming what your accuse the others of being. Please step back, take a deep breath, recall what you may have learned on other boards and stop being antagonistic.
Every other board out there has people who are rabidly loyal to the vehicle the board is promoting. It's no different here and there is not one single thing wrong with that.
I spend every working day on and around some of the most exotic, powerful and expensive cars ever built. I find something to admire in each one. I also see flaws in each one.
However, I don't walk into the service area of (insert brand here) and talk smack about the owners, their cars, their personalities, or their preferences.
It's called respect, and you should try to earn a little before you post up a bunch of negativety. After all, I'm absolutely certain as a T/R owner, you are going to encounter a a gremlin that you just can't figure out and this board will be the place you will need to turn to for help.
If you choose to stay on the path you are on, help just might become difficult to come by.
Have a good weekend everybody! Football game is starting............
