scrAp Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 I must have learnt how to drive wrong, I was under the impression you did not accelerate and brake at the same time?? :p right... and you NEVER use your left foot to brake. ya do in old cars....I always use my right for gas and brakes everywhere else but my old 68 and many others you have to keep your left foot ready..since your knees are touching the steering column :rofl: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/61530-show-us-your-car/page/6/#findComment-630678 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicane-UK Veteran Posted January 29, 2003 Veteran Share Posted January 29, 2003 Tyler_durden, I wouldn't exactly knock a Supra.. saying that you wish you were a millionaire so that you didnt have to drive one! Supra's kick ASS and I would give a lung to be able to afford one.. :( They are a very uncommon car, they deserve immense respect on the road, and they will outperform a huge majority of cars on UK roads.

Zip Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 hey dont worry, i wasnt diss'in it, i love my car. i was just sayin i wouldnt be ownin it if i was a millionaire... btw i picked it up for ?12,000 second hand (about the price of a focus) - what would you choose? ive had it a year and nuffins gone wrong (thankfully - parts are murder to get hold of) but i hope it wont....its japenese. (its actually for sale at the moment - im testing the market to see if i can get an Evo VII) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/61530-show-us-your-car/page/6/#findComment-631617 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicane-UK Veteran Posted January 29, 2003 Veteran Share Posted January 29, 2003 You have the same philosophy as me.. I got my Corrado for ?4,500 - like your Supra, its pretty uncommon on the roads, and gets plenty of interest off people. I figured it was either that, or something like an Escort - not exactly a tough choice. If you look around, and shop carefully, you can end up with a car thats just as reliable as a new one.. just need to know what you are doing, and know where to get it looked after & serviced:)) How is the Supra for reliability? And dare I ask.. whats petrol consumption like:DD I take it yours is the twin turbo?

Yvo Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 people living with their parents (or teenagers) should say who paid for their car... mommy and/or daddy or themselves. not going to pick on anyone but you can easily always see the cars mommy and daddy buy... the person doesn't appreciate their car that much at all compared to one who had to save up to buy their own car. btw.. i paid for my own car.. i don't need to be spoiled by my parents :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/61530-show-us-your-car/page/6/#findComment-632125 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares who paid for the car. I bought my first car when I was in high school (1998), but the money was from what my parents had deposited into a savings account after I was born. The car was a P.O.S. (a 1986 Isuzu Impulse), but I am glad I no longer have it anymore.

The point of this thread is to show CURRENT cars you OWN - not to exclaim what you might have in the improbable future. :rolleyes: Oh yeah...and I agree with the above post...Your car and your parents car ARE two different things.
