Question: How funny would it be to roll up on some unsuspecting ricer in a full size Oldsmobile and whip up on them?

Project Mean Green:
This is the first car I have ever bought, a 1998 Oldsmobile LSS. I got a pretty good deal on her. This car didn't have the supercharger option on it, so from the factory it came with 205hp. Only had 39,000 miles on her when she was bought. I had a rod break at 45,000 miles, so I now have a rebuilt Series 2 3800 V-6 under the hood. It feels stronger than the original motor, so I figure it has closer to 210hp or more. Since I am a poor college kid I haven't done much work to it yet, but the planning has begun. It's a great highway cruiser or street bruiser. This car is quite a step up from the 1980 Ford Thunderbird I was driving before. Hope you like it.

A little Update:
The steering has been screwed up on my car ever since the engine was changed. I took it back to the dealership and had the rack replaced with no success, so I took it to another dealership instead. It was here I found out that my car was on its third engine, not its second. According to the milage numbers, Stuart-Bowan had changed the motor before it was sold to me without telling me. I also found out that the warrenty that I paid $1800 for had gone bankrupt too. When it rains it pours.

Update 2:
I have had my Goodyear Assurance Triple Tread tires for about 7 monthes now. They are so much better than the crappy Ameri Generals I had before. I also finally purchased a Flowmaster 80 series muffler for it and had it installed. I ran it out through 2 pipes in the back of the car, and now have a sound that rivals that of a pumped up Camaro Z28. Got to love Flowmaster. Also did up a poor-man's cold-air intake using a large K&N filter and $2.00 piece of pvc pipe. All and all the new intake setup works well with the free-flowing Flowmaster setup.

Update 3:
You wouldn't belive how hard it is to take a picture like this on the road.
