What do you all drive?
 
heh, i searched for 'car' to see if someone already had one, but under 4 characters=bad, and 'cars' came up with a pictures thread and an RC thread, both old, so i figgered (and spelt) that it'd be ok for me to post this.


Anyway, what car do you drive, what are its traits, quirks, etc.

Ill start.

1991 Mercury Sable. Black. grey carpet interior. Beutiful car . . . . .i love Sables.

it kinda sucks and kinda is breaking down, but I love it, and heres why: it got character. I mean, how many other car's have a tachometer that points down, into the black space that exists in the OTHER arc designated by 0 and 8000 rpms? and it moves around randomly: bonus cool points.

Tail lights don't match, ones all chromed up, and the other is from a Sable 'light' we found at a junkyard, cuz some old lady took out our good one.

it is actually decently fast, and its BIG . . . . mind you, its no grand marquis, but it is big.



Ideal car: 70's Caddy with big fins on the back, all black. Cars don't get better (or bigger) than that . . . . .ahhh, the glory days of fins on cars . . . . .. where have they gone?

I drive a car with the coolest engine ever made: an RX-7!

Mine's an '87 FC 5 speed non-turbo. No mods...except my sound system...

I love my car....and it's a WANKEL!!!!!!!!

Check out the RX-8 to be released next summer, oh so much better then the new Z!!

Drivers side door is busted inwards a bit, someone hit me about 2 weeks after getting the car.
Front Right turn signal cover busted (hit in a parking lot)
Very loud, high idle occasionally. About 86k miles on it, got it with 77,777 =)

Not mine, but a 2001 Ford Escape XLT. It's actually my parents car, but I use it all the time, and I enjoy calling it mine.

1992 Jeep Cherokee. 4.0 I-6. Alloy rims that where optional on my Laredo model. 179,325 Miles on it to date. All that has been done w/ it is just regular matinence (oil change, fill it up w/ premium once in a while :D , etc...)

NO RUST!!! And it's a nice shade of metallic blue! O, yea, it has all electric opts. (power locks & windows, overhead console, A/C, all the goods!)

I wanna see any Ford/GM product beat that in good condition, like mine!!

Yeah thats for sure, a "Vette"

Ricky, does the car accelerate now when you press down the accelerator, or does the 38HP engine die out? :p

Anyway

I mainly drive what I like to call "The Crapmobile" - 1990 Pontiac Sunbird, with a "road scar" from when the anti-lock brakes locked up. The car I drove today, well minivan- 1990 Pontiac Transport. On good days, my dad lets me drive his 2000 Honda Odyssey. Many days I am known as "Minivan <echo> man man man man <echo>"
