What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

1995 White Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 4 Door. Got it for $750, and it runs great!

:rofl:

Same boat as you. 1990 VW Jetta Carat 1.8 4 speed that looks like it has been driven though the sahara in a sandstorm. But hey, I paid $650 for it and it runs great too.

2003 Audi A4 1.8 Turbo Quattro.. Stick shift

Umm I wont list my specs hehe.. Just know all my internals are redone and different turbo.. Along with other minor engine work :)..

Wanna keep it lookin stock :)

Very nice, looking to get something similar myself but probably just in silver. How you finding it? Fuel consumption bearable?

It's awesome. I had to search all VW dealships within 300 miles to find this. Hard to find a 4 door. Fuel is ~21 city, 28 highway. Not bad the way I drive.

My Audi is now far sale. I put my Sensible head on and went to Merc, put my deposit down on a new C200 CDI Sport Triptronic with a few extra's in Metalic Black. Will post pictures when I collect the car.

Will miss my Audi but fueling a 3.0 Petrol engine on an AWD car and getting between 10 and 20 mpg just isnt viable for me anymore, the Merc felt well slow when i test drove it, but still really nice to drive.

I bought my first car this Saturday, and get it today! I am so excited, can't wait!

It's a 2000 Ford Mustang, Silver:

And yes, she's standard. It's the base model, but fully loaded (leather, sunroof). I can't afford the gas on the GT, I go back and fourth from school and home which is 200km quite a few times a year... So the V6 is good enough for me! :p Not only that, but she only had one owner before me, and it was never winter driven... I can't wait!

Nice! You'll like it.... It's just a start, one day a GT will call your feelings....

It already does... It's nothing like a V8, and I'm never going to feel like it is. My real dream is one of those Fox-body 5.0's, like in this Youtube video:

You can say all you want about how that car LOOKS, but close your eyes. There is no way in hell you can say it doesn't sound GOOD.

Regardless, I got the car yesterday, and it's awesome, and I'm really happy with the way it looks and handles. One thing's for sure, though - she's American. The way everything is - the way it shifts (gotta give 'er to the shifter), the rear wheel drive, the 3.8 V6 only pushing 190hp... I grew up on Ford's, and am totally happy with the car.

It cruises like a dream on the highway, which is important.

for me, to be honest, i dont see my self driving private cars, no mater how luxurious / expensive they are, to me it feel's , low, gentle, not in full control, and i feel uncomfortable in them, specialy the jap cars,.(without disrespecting at all, at all.) i think uropeans cars are better.

emm to give example of what i feel about those cars, even if i had the money, i wouldn't buy them, if let's say iv'e won somehow in bmw, or audi r8, i would test them, but, would have sell them, and buy tougher vehicle.(4x4)

i'm more of jeep like vehicless, like wrangler, land cruiser, pajero, offroads trasportation.

never felt more secure than in a cj6 jeep. very simple machinery, but grinding stones.

right now, till my new pajero arrives,(3.2 l, 200hp.) i'm on 4x4 toyota hilux 2003, not the strongest diesel engine, but after really good and deep care, it runs perfectly.

to all of you drivers/drifters, drive safe, and enjoy life. :)

    • Close, but it is for any application starting, not just during boot time. In fact, it probably will not improve boot time at all because during a boot, the CPU is already boosting, so a pre-boost wouldn't change anything. I agree that it isn't exciting (especially considering every other OS already does it), but it is a good thing, even if they are just playing catch up.
    • Any so called performance increase will be in milliseconds, which nobody will actually notice in real world usage.
    • All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....
    • It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.
