Car Forum / BMW Cars / March 2007Wikipedia for Cars? As of today, yes!
Hey guys: Jimmy Wales, the guy who started Wikipedia, started an online, user- written and edited car magazine today at http://cars.wikia.com -- it's a group blog and a wikipedia-like site for cars and car fanatics. You can ask questions of other car fans, write articles reviewing everything auto-related, and rate different makes and models, too. And everything is together in one place in a magazine-like format. Enthusiasts like you guys know as much, if not more, than the so- called experts. Cars.Wikia agrees, and aims to highlight your thoughts and ideas. Hope you like the site! Yours, Dan "Enthusiasts like you guys know as much, if not more, than the so- called experts" Having borne witness to even a few of the more recent "technical" disagreements among the local "enthusiasts", one wonders exactly whom is being addressed. ;-] Good luck with the site.

I am a fan of Lincoln automobiles, and Ford products in general. I'll see what I can add. BTW,I didn't know there was a Stude newsgroup? I have to admit that I never actually looked, though. Studebaker, beyond their rather stodgy reputation, made some pretty impressive vehicles. I'd give all of my vehicles for a 'real' Avanti. :) Yeah? Whattaya got? >> Just added 9 Studebaker websites to the Studebaker page (which had no >> current info at all). You guys jump in and add some more, OK?

I was speaking rather "tongue in cheek" with that statement. I've wanted an Avanti since I first saw one back in about 1975. I have a couple of nice Mark VIIs, a 69 Mercury Marauder X-100 and a 98 Taurus. Not near enough for a nice Avanti. I won't part with the Merc and the Taurus is my "priceless" daily driver. The Marks are ~$12K total. Sorry Pat, I didn't mean to spark interest. I just meant that The Avanti is a Stude that I've admired and appreciated for a long time. I really wish I could afford one. No worries - I lusted after one ever since I saw it in a Stude showroom at age 10, took a little over 40 years before the dream came true. Spend some time here on the Stude group, you may find yourself infected with the Studebaker bug. >> Yeah?
