My penis is quite large, so I don't need to drive a car to impress the opposite sex tongue.gif

most important/loved things is/are my car first, my laptop second, and my iriver, sometimes my "girlfriend" when she's not being a bitch.

I use a 1994 Ford Taurus. I know, but atleast it gets me from point a to b. And its better than using public transportation biggrin.gif And since it was given to me by my parents after it was used as a "drivers test car" (they bought it for the sole purpose for me and my brother to practice driving) I really can't complain.

I don't really have that much info, except it drinks gas like a college student who drinks beer, and I'm beginning to know why people hate Ford. Hopefully I can get an SUV in a few months.

Not the best of cars I must admit but being a student I count myself lucky to have a car at all. All standard as well only thing i've done is slap a CD player in there, not even got new mats for it which should really be on my list of things to buy. I just have more important things to get.

Identical to this one, just found it on autotrader

I own a 2006 Limited edition Blue Blitz Scion tC. So far I have added blue underbody neons to it. The next thing to come is painting the calipers however I do not know what color to go with. Probally blue or red.

Nice plans on the car, my plan is to buy a 240SX in about 2-3 years. More likely it will be a S14 Kouki, if not that it'll be a S13 fastback. wink.gif

Japanese car + RWD = w00t.gif

I have a managing position in Philips, my wife works on her own (don't know the english word) so we can put 2 cars on her company and one is a company car from Philips. It's not that I put down the full amount for those cars myself, now that would be insane. wink.gif

Please do remember that I'm not 16, but way past the 30 line.

PS. All cars are driven with. I use the Range, my wife the A6 and my son the A3. It's not that they stand in the garage doing nothing.

I drive an 03 Smart Car ForTwo (I might have already said this but I am not sure...)

It is a cool little car perfect for congested city driving in England.

I drive a SUV, or should I say, a gas drinker.... unsure.gif

GMC Envoy SLE 4x4, 2005
Inline6 with 275HP
No modification where done to the truck.

It's a nice SUV, lots of room. Some small rattle but it's to be expected from GM...!!

the rattle is intentional.. all GM SUV's and trucks to this... it's to make you think and feel that you're off-roading because in reality they can't go off-roading.. wink.gif tongue.gif

lol sorry but get a new car. and if you DON'T god sakes why you wouldn't..
please get non black rims
PS the taillights make me want to puke


huh.gif He has a 2005 and the STR is not a bad car, torque steer is an issue...but not that bad
Mr. Bullseye
It's alright Toastyone, it's a car people love to hate so I've grown accustom to it. It's devilish fast and the torque steer isn't that much of a problem, it's the wheelhop. That can be fixed with the some $60 aftermarket motor mounts.

I have it in storage right now(I'm deployed overseas) and I'm seriously thinking about trading it for a Nissan 350z when I return, just because I've wanted one since they came out.

I still think each car has it's own values. I've seen your cars and I don't tend to call them ****. How old are you to be driving such a car? Everything is relative, I've worked very hard my entire life and it's starting to pay off. wink.gif

I don't drive one of them, they're my parents and sister's car, but since I have my theory license I'm looking for a E30 M3 myself, but I was only able to find 1 in belgium, wich was Red pinch.gif

Theory license ... So do I have to conclude that you're 18~19? In that case, why would you get an M3? You hardly have any experience and you will, trust me, push that gas pedal to its limits. Ah well ...

J.

Ps. How will you get an insurance for this? An M3 is a z-type car therefore you have to be 23+.
2s2k
we own a big field behind our garden where I have driven all kinds of cars since my 13, so I don't need to learn how to drive actually, but to use the rules when driving. since an M3 is from about '89 It belongs to the 'oldtimer' category and insurance is piece of cake because I will only drive in the weekend and go to college during he week cool.gif

Don't get me wrong but you still have 0,00000 experience. A garden is nothing like a real life road. You'll notice when you drive on the road. wink.gif

I think James R was refering to the whole having to pay attention to absolutely everything when you're on the road. On private land, you don't have to look out for much. On the roads, reading the traffic and pedestrians constantly does get quite knackering.



Anyhoo, I drive a 1.6 Ford Focus Ghia.

my newer vehicle. although i've had it since late august, i just never got around to taking decent pictures of it are here.

My dad signed over his 1978 Honda Supersport. Its my dads prized posession bike and had it since before he knew my mother. My dad signed over this bike because my old motorcycle (a 1979 honda hawk 400cc Twin Carb). Its drivetrain droped on the yellowhead (a highway that goes through my city) in the month of july and i havn't been lucky finding a decent priced motorcycle that runs fine. and he wants a goldwing.

I am taking very good care of it. Its never been droped once, (although i have had one close call). and runs like a dream. If you notice the back seat is maroon, that is because the back seat is from a part bike sitting behind our garage, and we are repairing the original seat to original condition right now. It is a rare bike and I am very privileged to own this bike. Like i said, its my fathers baby, he even has the original bill of sale from 1979.

Here are 3 pictures of it, i feel these are my three best pictures that show off this bike.. I do have more though.





EDIT: oh yea, its 750 CC's.
