The very fact that you automatically assume that I think I am better then you since I commented on your language, tickles me to no end.

I just think that it's...intresting that in a country where English is the main language, there seems to be far too many that don't speak it that well. I by no means put all of this in you, no no dear boy there are far worse examples.

Also I find it intresting that instead of actually responding to the brunt of my post (the language thing was just a bit at the end after all), you chose to simply say that since you invented those things, thereby implying that you are indeed better then me and I should just take that.

Now here it is that we reach the core of it all: I can like things both Swedish, European, American, and even (gasp!) Japanese. It is my choice and opinion to do so. I like Swedish girls, extremly pretty and lots of them around. I like European cities, fascinating melting pots of culture.

And I love American cars. I love the sound of a big V8, the sensation of RWD, and the muscular styling of a muscle car like the Camaro, the Challenger and yes even the Mustang. And I love the country. I visited far too briefly a few years back and found it very charming with lots of great food, big open roads, a different pace from my home country and lots of nice people. So I am no America hater.

As for the Japanese bit, not so much the cars, but I love quite a bit of the pop culture, big anime and manga fan.

Also apart from a lot of people on this site I'm pretty liberal in my political views. Without turning this into a political discussion I will only say that while I do not agree with some of the polital views presented here from time to time, that does not mean I do not respect the men who have them.



And now I come to my main point, the most important thing is to respect that people have other views then your own. That you may differ in opinion from someone, maybe think something...not very polite about them, but be able to accept that they have a different view from you and respect them still.




To end on something a bit more on topic, you do know that the Camaro underwent rigorous winter testing in northern Sweden last winter? In deep snow, six inches easily. And it performed splendidly.



Peace out and good luck with your car man
