Day (X-2): Ford GT
The forthcoming Ford GT is a beautiful car that really does evoke memories of the classic 1960s GT40s that won several Le Mans victories. It’s slated as a 2005 model with limited production to start in spring 2004. Unfortunately, at $150,000 MSRP I think it may be just a hair outside of my price range… 
At pretty much the other end of the price spectrum (and heck, the car spectrum for that matter) is the Chevy Colorado. The Colorado is replacing the existing S10 line of compact pickups, but the Colorado will be a bit bigger and, IMO, quite a bit better looking. I’m not sure quite what it was about the Colorado that caught my eye, but most of the stuff I’ve seen and read about it looks pretty good.
Of course, I don’t really have plans to get a new vehicle right now and even if I did I’m not sure that I’d go for another pickup, but it’s nice to dream right now anyway!

Hrm is it so wrong that the GT gives me a wicked hard-on? what a car.
As for the new chevys, well i’ve never been a fan, but i think this is SORT of an improved look for them, i dont like the ‘cat eye’ styling they’ve chosen for the lights and grill, (the same resides on the full-size pickups as well). I am however interested to see how the new inline 5 engine differs from thier trusty 4.3l v6 that alwasy ruled the chevy small SUV and truck department.

At pretty much da damn otha’ fat-lady o’ da damn price spectrum (down low, an’
heck, da Caddy spectrum 4 dat matta’) be da damn Chevy Colorado. Da Colorado
be replacin’ da damn ‘esistin’ S-1-fuckin’-0 line o’ compact pickups, but da
damn Colorado will be some bit bigga’ an’, I-M-fuckin’-O, quite some bit betta’
peekin’. I’m not shaw quite whut it wuz about da damn Colorado dat caught mah
eye, but most o’ da damn stuff I’ve seen an’ eyeball about it peeks pretty
badass.
Jive turkey don’t talk no sense nohow.
Yeah, the GT is max sweet. The interior is way too cool. As for realistic vehicles? My eye’s to solid on the Subaru line of all-wheel drive sub-SUV / wagon-type things.
