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. :)

    • A shame it don't allow people to bypass the MS account, I will stick to using Rufus.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates by Paul Hill Microsoft has just announced that starting with Edge 152, it will be moving to a two-week release cycle for faster, smaller updates. This faster release cadence will begin on August 27. This change comes just several months after Microsoft switched Visual Studio Code to weekly updates. The company said that the Extended Stable releases will remain on an eight-week cycle and that no admin changes are needed to experience the faster release cycle on the Stable channel. The new two-week release cycle will enable the faster delivery of security updates and platform improvements, all while reducing the size and complexity of individual updates. Microsoft claims that organizations will benefit from this change as it offers predictable validation cycles. For organizations that prefer a “more deliberate pace”, the Extended Stable channel remains an option. This change will affect Edge Stable releases on Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. The Extended Stable channel will continue to be updated every eight weeks, or every fourth Stable release, for example: versions 152, 156, 160, and 164. The Extended Stable could be a good option for organizations that don’t want the latest updates twice a month and don’t want as much hassle constantly updating browsers. In the case of Visual Studio Code, many of the updates being pushed by Microsoft are AI-related. As we all know, Microsoft Edge has a lot of AI features, so we could see Microsoft pushing more AI, thanks to the faster cycles. On the flip side, quicker releases could mean faster security updates, which is beneficial in a world where AI systems are hunting for software exploits. What do you think? Let us know in the comments. For more updates on Edge, be sure to follow Neowin's coverage. In May alone, we reported on Edge offering in-browser pop-ups to assist users with website compatibility issues, that Edge was losing Copilot Mode, and that Microsoft had fixed a plain-text password bug in Edge.

    • not yet, because at the moment it is not a threat to MS, if and I mean if it did become a threat to MS Office, then it may be a different thing. MS don't like competition
    • Zen Browser 1.21b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 151.0.4 Added 'Space Routing', a new feature that allows you to route links to a specific Space. To get started, click on the three dots in your Space name and click on 'Space Routing Settings'. Fixes Fixed extension-opened tabs not being created with the correct container (#14100) Fixed a bug with the Boosts editor having the wrong theme colors (#14099) Improved overflowing space icons being inaccessible and improved the feeling when hovering over them (#13747) Other minor bug fixes and improvements Download: Zen Browser | 89.8 MB (Open Source) Download: Zen Browser ARM64 | Other Operating Systems View: Zen Browser Home Page | Screenshots 1 | 2 | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
