I have no uploadable picture, but this is identical to my [2006 Jeep Golden Eagle](http://members.cox.net/sylverpiano/jeep.jpg) ---

I took this pic when somebody asked why I don’t change my own oil. Oh I do. Just not in the winter. [There’s a Pathfinder under there](http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r148/enipla/?action=view¤t=IMG_03021.jpg) I make a point to buy dark colored cars. 🙂 ---

[2007 Saturn ION](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturn_ION) Mine is this color, but since it is my middle-aged Crisismobile, I have a spoiler and a sun roof. 😃 ---

Not the best car for winter driving, but I love my [vintage Porsche 911 Carerra](http://www.flickr.com/photos/42561499@N00/2270893531/in/set-72157603927783437/). The daily driver, however, is my ['01 Subaru Impreza L](http://www.flickr.com/photos/42561499@N00/2270893533/in/set-72157603927783437/), which is currently nearing 118,000 miles with no significant mechanical work ever having been needed. ---

British steel, baby. This one isn’t mine but it’s [close](http://www.barrysbest.net/images/LandRoverRangeRover1999.jpg) (2000 Land Rover Range Rover Vitesse). Then we have one of [these](http://www.avto-otchet.net/CarReviews/2528_0.jpg) (2002 Land Rover Discovery II) in a cool metallic dark grey. But my very first ride was one of [these](http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-1950-1959/1957-Nash-Metropolitan.jpg) - mine was indeed a 1957 turquoise & white. Of course, in between I had a few beater types from Dodge, Mazda and Jeep. But I got better. 🆒 ---

My freshly-cleaned [Fiesta](http://www.owainsutton.co.uk/images/DSC00559.JPG). No, I didn’t clean it just for this thread. Yes, it will be covered in mud again by mid-week. ---

These aren’t actual pics of ours, but… [98 Civic](http://www.wheelsautomag.com/ADCARS/842.gif) Mine is a red SI (canadian version of the EX), with a factory wing. [94 Explorer](http://www.mikesautosite.com/mediac/400_0/media/94~Exp_gry_6409.jpg) Mine is blue, and much, much dirtier than the one in the pic. It’s what I use for work.

[This is Carree,](http://img220.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hpim2214ds9.jpg) my 2005 Toyota Corolla. I’m not big on decorating cars, but when you drive a small silver car, you kinda need to, to find it in parking lots. You can’t really see the butterfly decals on the rear panels; they’re getting sun-faded now, and I’m planning to replace them with even larger decals. ---

The car in the foreground of [this photo](http://www.squirrelpf.com/frank/sig.jpg) looks like mine. It’s a 1989 Dodge Daytona CS turbo. Big batwing hexagonal doors, just two of them; a long hood; little spoiler; legally tinted rear window. Mine is white with orange and black trim. Flip-up headlights also. ---

[2006 BMW 330i](http://photoshare.shaw.ca/image/8/6/2/71635/bmw002.jpg?rev=0) The one in the pic isn’t mine; mine has black interior and different wheels. I love this car, but I came from a '92 Nissan Sentra so there was a lot of love to give. ---
