Dino guzzling, toxin spewing money pits! What do YOU drive [NSF56k/bicycles]

I think this is the only picture of my car that I have.

Staleghoti

Welp that's quite the Porsche SUV you got there

Krieghund

I drive a 2007 Mustang GT 5M. It is a lot of fun. I think I may be able to pay it off in the next two months with tax return and bonus comming. Pretty jacked up about not having a payment again.

ThreeCubed

I drive this:

(potentially NSFW wording) 1997 Taurus

Staleghoti

I know a guy who turned the word Maxima on the back of his Nissan to Sexima

what a turd

It sure is a car, in the car thread. Yep.

my previous car was a 96 taurus
right before I got rid of it, it was leaking both power steering fluid AND brake fluid

Taurus: Built and leaks like a bull.

I had a 93 Taurus before my current 97. Leakier than a menstruating woman watching a sad movie.

Also, I somehow tear up the transmission in every car I touch.

God I want my dad to leave me his '69 Nova when he passes. Which should be soon because he doesn't stop drinking soda even when his doctor diagnosed him with diabeetus.

I realized how much I love my Toyota Yaris this weekend when I had to navigate through Los Angeles traffic that was just an insane maze of cars going every which way. I was able to snake through them and park pretty easily with having a small car.

this is one thing i do appreciate about my fit

makes all them awkward driving situations pretty easy as i can sneak through some pretty tight spots

Bring that thing to Texas and the locals will celebrate by throwing rocks at you.

MKR

No smug stations in Texas to fill up at.

Not in Australia it's not.

Some licence plates in Queensland also claim it is the "Smart State"

which is a little over confident

alternatingAberration

But if you manage to make it to Austin you'll get people snappn' pictures.

pipe I would not mind having your car

PkErthbnd

This is my baby. Too much fun to drive but with all the F-350s and Nissan Aircraft Carriers around my town, I have to constantly avoid being pulled out in front of, backed up into, etc. etc.

Grey Ghost

Don't have a photo on hand but I'm sure you all know what a black BMW 3281 looks like
Its electronics can get a little finicky at times but I love it

It sure takes the sting out of losing my '88 Saab 900 Turbo last year

Hi5 to Spudge for also rocking the Saab

Neither would I

it's in for repairs at the moment because the sky threw a bunch of fist-sized ice balls at it and put dents in every single panel

Gonna be without it for another 2 weeks at least

Tallaclassee

I think I'm going to buy a bluish silver '99 Audi A4 1.8t quattro this weekend! It's got a completely new engine, exhaust system, wide tires, and rims - all of which only have 1550 miles on them. The seats, steering wheel, transmission and the rest of the chassis have 151,550 miles on them, though.

However, from what I hear, the majority of the issues in that generation arent transmission based, so I've got high hopes. Of course, since it's german, I'm expecting high maintenance costs and having to fill it up with premium @ 28mpg on the highway.

Oh well, it's a beautiful car. Pics if/when I buy it.

Deadfall

The 2010 Mazda 3 hatchback is the exact car I want. In a dark red color.

Get the SP25. I'm perfectly qualified to say it's fun as hell.

It was God.

IpseDixit

I drive a 2005 Ford Focus ZX3, which isn't too fast in a straight line but sticks like glue going around corners. Currently saving up for the SVT suspension kit

My other baby is this



My 88 Nissan Pathfinder, which is currently lamenting the lack of a working transmission (and also now has mold on the front seats since the sunroof has apparently developed a leak while it's been sitting)

Grey Ghost

My family used to have a Land Cruiser FJ40 from the 70s
God, I loved that thing

IpseDixit

Also I work at Hertz so I get to drive all kinds of brand new cars

What model is that? Cayenne Turbo?

jgeis

Yep, that's my car. Got it for $250 less than sticker price, which I think was a good deal. It's 5-speed, 4 cylinder, and I bought it with 77,000 miles on the clock. So far the only work I've done to it is put in a new headlight motor, and give it a tune-up.

Now it needs the other headlight motor, and I really need to replace my sunroof weatherstrip and weatherstrip tracks before the spring rain moves in. I've got all the parts, but work and school and laziness keep me from putting the hour and a half of work into it.

Eventually I need to replace the headliner and radio, since both are less than perfect.

The Black Hunter

I drive a 2001 Corolla

Like this but white and with no aero



It's a good car, but it feels more like an investment, I want something I can shenanigan with

That Corolla looks way more interesting than the stuff we're stuck with in the USA.

The Geek

I got a nice little 2009 Honda Fit.



I like it quite a bit.

ThreeCubed

I am in love with the Fit. The inside is so roomy for a compact car and it's just adorable.

You can't jump start another car off of it very easily, though.

End

I drive a silver '98 Honda Accord.

I am boring.

Edit: Although, it is a manual.

Spudge

I was so happy yesterday! Got the 900 running like a raped ape, full boost, no problems whatsoever

Then I filled the tank. Now it's dead. Coincidence?

risumon

#pipe, is the SP25 an Aussie only thing? I don't remember hearing about that in the states. I know the old model had a turbocharged mazdaspeed variant that was supposed to be a lot of fun, but understeered like a boar.
