Started by me and my 2 friends going to Blockbuster. Then we went to walmart and got the essentials. Ice cream, pizza, and cookie dough. Liquor already at the house. Anywayz pull out of Walmart do a U-turn and after about 5seconds this ****ing saturn pulls up next to me and honks his horn the car is loaded. The passenger smiles and waves at me as he stomps on it. After 3 seconds I decide what the hell. They get in the turn lane to turn onto 92(4-lane road), I'm sittign behind them and I see the GTR symbol on it. I couldn't stop laughing. My friend is on my PA saying **** like, "don't even try; that ain't no skyline; and them some other funny stuff unrelated to cars...like full metal jacket quotes" Anywayz light turns green and they floor it from the get go, don't even give me a chance to get beside them for a fair race...wait what am I sayign it's a saturn. Passed him right after I shifted into 3rd wound it up to 85-90 and hit my brakes. About 5 seconds later a state trooper came by. I am trying to get out of racing but when you see somethign like that you got to put them in their place.

I have had so many uses and memorable moments out of that PA. Can't wait till spring break to use it. As I was passing him my friend said ,"just, just give up already, your embarassing yourself now."

Yup that was my friend John. Still have people asking me if I'm turboed. Cuz everyone knows about me planning to turbo then after that night everyone thinks I am now. It's great to see their expession when they find out they got beat by a stock KA.

Sounds like a Ford Ranger I saw once when I lived in Davenport, Iowa. This guy had a red Ranger, and right under the Blue Oval on the tailgate was a GT-R badge. I never saw the guy out and about in the truck, always parked, but a friend of mine saw him once and asked him about it. My friend told him to look up GT-R on the internet. I saw the truck bout two weeks later, the emblem was gone. My friend said that the guy talked to him later on that summer, and said he felt like such a dork. He just thought he had bought a dress up accessory.

I've never seen anything as bad as a saturn or a ranger with a gt-r emblem but I have seen a saturn around town with a v-tec badge on it.

kinda like those pesky Mustang owners with the GT-R badges...retards...they don't deserve the car...they need a Hyundai with a V-Tec badge...

if a Saturn tries to flex...open your door into his and laugh at the weird thwomp sound...

Wow I did not realise that my town is overfilled with skylines. Saw the saturn the other night and now today an escort with a GTR symbol. Remember about a month ago saw a VAN with a GTR symbol. I almost wrecked because I was starring at it.

I HATE Saturn. The SL2 is the wanna-be rice-rocket around here. One of my friends had a white...94, I think...SL2 that he thought was The ****. He swore up and down that since it was lighter, it could take my Maxima...

There's also another (also white, same year) SL2 near where I live that has big chrome rims, chrome fender strips, and a wing. Wow...American Rice at its best...

The good news is that Saturn is ditching the plastic car gig and becoming just a lower-end GM division, sharing platforms and parst like a normal child-company.

I had a PA system when I was in High School.

It, and my idiot friend nearly got us beat to death by a bunch of construction workers that had traffic stopped, messing with the road. I told my friend I would strangle him with the microphone cord if he did that again.

I've seen some Chevy Crapalier's up here and odd Neon with the Type-R logo and VTEC badges. I laugh at them as I blow by them.

Yea anytime I'm in stopped traffic my friend (IQ=4 or less) starts yellign at people on it I cut it off. Only time I let him do that is when I have an escape route. So far have had 3 peopel chase me. And have had 6 cars chase me lost them after 2 turns. Some kids at school that we yelled at I guess want to kick my *** over us yelling at them and yet still haven't seen them. Pa cost me $13 and 15minutes to put it in. Got it plugged into my CB radio. Ever heard the stories truckers tell....pretty interesting.

there was a kid at my school last year that said the same thing to one of my friends, he had a base model 86 pontiac fiero, his only "mod" were l.e.d. windshield washer nozzles , but because of these and his car being lighter, he could take my friends turbo awd eclipse. oh yah didnt you know l.e.d. nozzles arent rice, (because they add 5 hp ), but a blow off valve is rice because it doesnt add power, anyone else know that?

Haha...this dude's Saturn had those. They're illegal in our county, though, so he had electrical tape on the front of his sprayers. But somehow they still made it "cooler." Really sad.

His Saturn got stolen from his dorm parking lot. Now he's got a bottom-end '91 Escort that doesn't run, and it's been on the same jackstands (that I put it up on because he's lazy and/or too stupid to tell a spark plug from an oil filter--when we popped the hood he said "Hey the engine is sideways...I've never seen that before. That's cool!"...[sigh]) for...lets see...since AUGUST! All he needs is a new oil pressure sending unit. $5 from Auto zone, and reach up and screw it in. But he's THAT lazy... Oi...
