I think I've answered this question before, and I am still driving my boring Saturn SL2, but now I also drive our company mini-van which we've dubbed Sweet Pickles, and sometimes one of the big old Ford trucks from our maintenance department (and I can barely see over the steering wheel in that one) so if you're ever in my area, and you think I might be driving, avoid the sidewalks!

Of course, what I really drive is people crazy.

TAURUS PRIDE

1993 white ford taurus.. inherited it from my great aunt with 45000 miles, it now has almost 55000. it's been in about 20 accidents(hey, my great aunt was an awful driver).. none since i got the car. you'd be surprised how fast tauruses go..

Races:
Hatchback Honda Civic - Smoked him

Newer(1998ish?) Honda Civic - Smoked him again

2003 VW Passat - Lost by an inch, but i had an extra 400 lbs in the car.. stupid little brother and his friend and their backpacks..


I also use my mom's car, a 1997 Ford Crown Victoria -- Kickin fast car, i must say.. havent raced in that yet.. i was supposed to race a kid in his stang but he chickened out cuz he knew i'd win..(fool has a v6 stang..) and im racing a kid in a porche 944 in a couple weeks.. ill be using my fave car, my 1993 white grocery getter taurus

Heh, GO SABLE/TAURUS!! (they are the same, but my sable is black and has lights where your grill is)

Heh, a friend of mine got a '98 Crown Vic Police Interceptor at an auction . . . . . . I am so jealous. Its got the whole 'interceptor' package, which means nice beefed up V-8 complete with cop tires, bigass steel bumber thingy on the front . . .. . ..

and the funny thing is that the rear doors don't open from the inside. Its such a nice car . . . . . .. . .

what i REALLY want is one of those new Mercury Marauders. Cop everything, Grand Marquis sized, but its got a nice pseudo-lux interior and sound system. And it only comes in black with black leather interior . . .and its grill is matte black vertical peices of metal. Its really mean looking, i want it.

course, old school would be nice, also, I'd take the '74 dodge police car from the Blues Brothers.

I am fortunate to drive a brown 1988 cutless cieara. It's canadian and pretty big. The set back though is that it is a 4 cyl. engine so I can get up to 65 mph in about 30 sec.

Thanks Ricky. This upsets me a lot that you are getting a better car. Now I can't make fun of you, and now when you are driving down the road, I won't be able to point you out as easily.
