^^^:laughing:  Pissed at each other in one thread, ball breaking in another.

Giga as far as sound quality Sony is possibly the worst "name brand" available.  They spend more R&D on fancy gimmicks & looks rather than good DACs and build quality.

I did some research and your Sony may be the best deal for you.  Alpine & Pioneers in your price range unfortunately require a seperate adapter to input an auxiliary source.  Sony included it with their new models.  If you\'re happy then that\'s all that matters.  I love the sound that comes out of my Alpine but it\'s a b*tch to tweak the audio.

Actually that is my car.  I\'ll take this as a compliment of my photography!  :laughing:   It\'s an 03, and I bought it in November 2002, so I have a few pics from different places.  I live in Los Angeles, and that was taken on Decker Canyon Rd in Malibu the same day I installed the new wheels.

I want to see more pics of Giga\'s Mach.  :)

Too bad is a Ford...

But then again, the Mach1 and the Cobra are the only good Mustangs...

That is your photograph!?!?!?  That is damn good - something I would expect to see in MotorTrend.

I have another couple of pictures at home that I will post tonight.  Not as good of quality or scenery as yours though ;)

Can you post a picture of the interior of your car Core?

You are exactly right - I wanted an Alpine, but it did\'t have an aux source so I had to go with the Sony.  Considering I didn\'t upgrade my stock amps I suppose it will suit my needs for now.

Core - Ace, does the California Duster work on ridding pollen from your car?  My car sits in the garage all week and by Friday there is a nice layer of pollen on the car and short of washing it, I would like another alternative.

Woah, is that a Vibe?  Hah ha are those any fun?  I always sort of liked those cars, although I would have purchased a Matrix instead of the Vibe.  I don\'t like that plastic cladding on the body panels.

Anyway, I think the California Duster (or whatever it\'s called) would remove particles as small as pollen.  I\'m pretty sure it\'s designed for that.  I don\'t have one of those but I should probably get one.  I leave my car parked outside with a weathershield cover, and even when I leave it uncovered for two days over the weekend, it gets coated with a layer of pollution.  I have to wash it every 2 weeks at a minimum.

Giga,

I have a duster and I like it. When it gets hot around here a lot of times I will cover my car and right before I do I take out the duster and give it a wipe. I only use it if the car is clean and there is either dust or pollen on the car. Works great and it works better as it gets dirtier. How can you beat that? :)

By the way, the pollen sucks around here too. It gets way into my rag top where it goes into the car in the back. It\'s a real pain to keep it clean.

Thanks forum auto experts...

Core - yes it is a Vibe, though I wish we would have bought the GT version with more hp.  130HP is really weak, maybe I convince her to buy the supercharger which would bump the hp up to 186 or so.  It is a fun little car and it is surprisingly roomy.  I keep the outside looking good, but she junks up the inside so much I hate to ride in it. :(
