CARS! The Car Super Thread

^My '99 Corolla has 305,000 miles on it with no real issues. They're basically bulletproof.

2010 KIA Forte - Two payments left.

I drive a 2004 Ford Taurus SE, I paid it off last month.

2007 Toyota Corolla Sport. Bought it when I got back from my deployment to Afghanistan in 2007. First car I owned that only had a few miles on it (every other one had over 100,000 miles on it). Just hit the 100,000 mile mark this last Thanksgiving.

Had a 2012 BMW 328i but the lease ended

*side note, BMW are Nazis when returning a lease they charge you for the smallest scratches and dings*

Now I'm just driving my old '06 Acura TL, since it's paid for. Car payments are the devil.

I currently drive a red 2012 Fiat 500 Sport Edition.

 

 

Of the 17 cars I have owned it is by far the most fun to drive! Also, not having a car payment is a huge plus!! (It's a lot less stress not having the payment hanging over my head every month!)

17 cars!?!? Insatiable much??

I like change.

A few months ago I scooped up a Volvo V50. 2006, currently sitting at almost 133,000 miles. Higher mileage, yes, but it was taken good care of previously, and it's the standard 5-cyl instead of the turbo. I really like it, and I consistently get above 29 MPG on road trips.

Bought a 2005 g35 coupe a few months ago. Only 39k miles. I love her so much.

^ Looks good! Congrats on the purchase!

My favorite car:

Saw this one parked by our local Pizzeria, the other day.

From Japan. It's called the Midget II.

This is how I first spotted it. From our front porch.

Wow! I love it!

Right hand drive. Actually if you 'actually' fit two inside of this....win!

I want one. (o:

^That's really cute, I want

^ ^ My god that thing is small!! And I thought my Fiat 500 was tiny!!

If you thought that was tiny...

Here's the Peel P50

My Baby... 2008 Subaru STi Sport wagon, stage 2. this car is so much fun to drive.

Currently driving a 2009 Toyota Rav4 Sport. 68k miles, runs good, but looking to use it as a winter/beater vehicle.

Now that I have a good career and can afford it, I'm thinking about a Dodge Challenger, possibly manual Hemi. Of course I'll only drive this when the weather in the Buffalo area cooperates.

I'd consider myself a pretty big car enthusiast, having owned a few cars in my approximately 11 years of driving, including the following past vehicles:

1996 Mercury Mystique

2001 Ford Focus

2009 Mazda3

1998 Mercedes SLK230

2002 Mercedes SLK32 AMG

2015 Mazda3

Currently, I think I've found the ideal two vehicles to own as a pair for the young car enthusiast:

"The Rocket", my Subaru WRX STI. This is my "don't touch it unless you've just washed your hands" car.

"The Shadow", my Focus ST. This is my daily driver, and it's pretty much the ideal daily driver. Practical hatchback, plenty of power, comfortable and quiet on long journeys (usually to theme parks).

I just installed coil overs last week. That wheel gap was killing me, Only lowerd it about 1.5 inches.. I also installed demon eyes and halos. I don't have eny extreme mods just some tastefull mods to keep my car reliable.

Your going to be so stoked once you go stage 1 (access port) it's like driving a whole new car, and best of all, no turbo lag.

I'm anxiously awaiting the day I can get my next car. 1.) I'm tired of having a super tiny car. 2.) When you are use to change cars several few times a year, it's hard to stay in one for YEARS!!

Sorry or the double post, but. . .

I went and looked at a new car today, and so far I have been super pleased by it. As most of you know, I have a really bad back, and I have a LOT of back problems. The only reason I went to look at this car is because the driver's seat has the "massage seat" feature. Which, as you can imagine, means my car seat will give me a massage while I am driving. . . And when you have the back problems that I have, any type of relief is very much appreciated! The only problem with the new car is that it gets 17 mpg. . . and having a husband who drives a Tesla. . . Trying to convince him to allow me to get a car that get's awful gas millage is damn near impossible. . .

However, aside from the massaging seat, there was another feature I loved, that I wasn't expecting. . . and that was the "approach" lighting. . . Which meant as I got close to the car with the key in my pocket, it projected a "welcome mat" on the ground below the doors, and the door handles lit up with a nice soft glow! We are going to test drive it tomorrow, and if all goes well, I MIGHT.... and that's a BIG might. . . Get a new car tomorrow!!

I've been drooling over this particular Peugeot 405 for a couple of hours... I want one so badly...
