Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

Okay. That was funny..
He poked fun at Lotus, Smart, and Honda... Cracked a joke about the Camaro's sharkfin. "If you take the car into the water, this thing will frighten small children" And goofed off inside the LaCrosse. (He spent the most time with the Camaro, and Buick, though.) I usually watch Ferguson at this time...but this was a good one. Thanks, Gator! |

That was okay....watchin 6 foot plus Conan try to exit the Lotus was funny. That car is about the size of a go-cart. Camaro looked sweet.

6'4" and he had no problems. Good deal. I'm going to scare small children with the shark fin now.....
Does the door still weigh 200lbs because it sounded kinda heavy when he shut it. Either that or it's not double insulated to give it the nice sounding soft puff when you shut the door. |

Good Find for sure! Especially since Conan is 6'4 -it should give the taller gents a good visual of the cars proportions.
