I like Jags, but I only own one with the traditional DOHC inline 6.  Does this make me a half-frenchy?

No, your a baby Frenchy, that makes you a French-Fry

there's a Classic forum?!?!

Because, if you read it, you'll see that it is an almost entirely different crowd.

 


Wait... The Classic Motorsports forum isn't populated by older white dudes like the GRM forum is?

French Canadian. 

So, snooty while having nothing to be snooty about, and incessantly holding a lit cigarette?

As the resident French Canadian on this forum, I can attest that you must not take things personally. Anyway, it doesn't matter because I am better than y'all. cheekylaugh

Left coast Canadian here.

I believe the plural of "y'all" is "all y'all".

The only Quebec I know is "Tabernac, Cigarette" I think it means "will you sleep with me" or something like that.

French accent sounds dead sexy, Quebecois accent, not so much...

Same with Spanish. Mexican Spanish accent... Meh, Spanish accent from Spain, yes please!

I sat next to a girl from Barcelona on a 9 hour flight, I could listen to her read the dictionary...
