I can relate to a FEW of the people on the list:
Cr@p. Flailed on a laptop keyboard a little too quickly. 
I’ve got a 2001 PT cruiser (purple) for daily driving, Wife’s got a 96 Saturn for crappy weather and a 1998 Corvette Coupe for when the weather’s nice and the kids are old enough to return it to use.
My hobby’s a 1989 Corvette with 124,000 miles on, um, SOME part of it. I’ve replaced damn near everything but the paint. It’s 240hp/350ft-lb motor wasn’t adequate, so I swapped it out for a 475hp/500ft-lb motor last year. It THEN proceeded to take out the transmission. Then the wife got pregnant with twin boys. (Born Dec 17th, YAY!)
So the Vettes sit in the back corner of the garage awaiting the time and inclination to fix the tranny and sunnier weather.
And no, they’re not for sale, nor are they going anywhere. And nothing frosts me more than some rube saying ‘Twin boys, eh? Well then, I guess the Vettes will have to go!’ :wally
1984 Chevy…
CHEVETTE!!! wooooooooo!
lol
I love my little baby
2002 VW Passat, Pine Green with Black Leather interior and stick. I like it alot…
1997 Lincoln Town Car
Lots of room and rides nice. This was the last model year for that style of body. Since 98 the Lincolns have been smaller. When I need a new one I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I’m 6’5" tall and need lots of leg room.
2000 Audi 2.8 A4 Quattro with 24,000 miles.
Lux and cushy with a hint of zip…and GOD I love my heated seats but do not like my brakes as I’ve had to replace the back ones already.
1988 Mercedes Benz 260E, 140,000 miles. I bought it used about 3 years ago with about 75,000 miles on it. I really like this car, pretty quick, comfortable and parks like no other car I’ve driven; I’ve gotten into parking spots with only 2 inches to spare back and front! I will probably get a later model, a 1994 or 1995.
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-9, one of the ultimate urban assault and canyon carving vehicles. A blast to ride, literally! Top speed about 170 MPH.
1996 Volvo 240 wagon for daily driving, 1999 Ford E-350 Van for long trips and camping. Seats 12, or seats 5 and carries all our camping gear.
Traded in my Audi less than a month ago for a 2003 Subaru Forester XS. Black on black with Gray leather, 5 Speed. HUGE sunroof, which is nice for the Bay area. Nice little gizmos - heated seats, in-dash 6 CD stereo with weather band, little hooks for plastic grocery bags in the back, hill-holder device (hold in the clutch with the brake off on a hill and it doesn’t move), 4x as much room as the Audi. I needed more of a camping / skiing vehicle, and I got it. Not as fast, but neither am I anymore.
Also sitting in my garage, which I only drive occasionally and which my wife loves, oh yes she does, is my 1974 Saab Sonnett III, 45k original miles, Orange with tan interior. My baby.
2003 Carbon Metallic Yukon Denali with 300 miles on it. Absurdly large, powerful and feature laden vehicle but a sweet ride.
1994 Black Accord EX with 80k miles. Nice reliable car
Lamborghini Diablo.
did i just read, the car i wish i was driving
Me: 1992 Alfa Romeo 164L (Green)
Mr. Michele: **2003 Mini Cooper S ** (Red with White top)
We also have a **1966 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint Veloce ** as our “Sunday driver.” It is purple. It is my husband’s baby.
P.S. to Dooku: We had a 1973 Saab Sonett III ** (Yellow) before we got the Giulia in 1997. ( this is the correct spelling, I believe…)
Every time I get into my 2000 Dodge I think of Arthur Carlson’s line in WKRP when they almost got caught breaking into a photographer’s shop to steal some pictures. The photog had taken some surreptitious nudes of Jennifer and the crew was trying to get them back.
Anyway, scared out of his wits by their close call poor Arthur was trying to explain what a routine, dull and generally pedestrian sort of guy he was and how he had never been in trouble before: “I drive a Dodge for God’s sake!”
1965 Ford Mustang with a Hi-Po 289, 4-speed manual tranny, and a positraction rear-end from a Continental.
5-point racing harnesses, 4-barrel Holley carburetor, no radio.
Rust blisters, several tones of white paint, no hubcaps.
The car roars like a locomotive, stinks of gasoline, and rides like a sledgehammer.
And I adore it. I’m tired of riding in vehicles with air conditioning, CD players, and lumbar supports. I’m piloting a ton and a quarter of steel down the highway at seventy miles an hour, not riding the escalator at Macy’s.
It’s not exactly a comfy commuting vehicle, I admit, so every chance I get I take the bus to work or ride my 1991 Honda Nighthawk CB750.
1986 VW Fox. - 243,000 miles and starts most of the time. I’m also the proud owner of an 88 Fox station wagon, (but only 19th about 160k miles) and when one dies, it will become a parts donor to the surviving vehicle. I also have a 1969 Triumph Spitfire that hasn’t gone anywhere since I drove it from PA to Oregon two years ago when I moved here.
Actually, as soon as we get our tax returns back, I’m getting a Honda CRV and he’s getting some sort of van.
2000 VW Golf GLS 1.8T,black,manual,mp3 player.
I got it because it was the most fun/most useful car I could find. I actually started car shopping to get the then new Toyota MR2 Spyder. There was 1…ONE!! in all of Omaha at the time and the markup on it was stupid so I shopped around and found the VW. I was happy with it for awhile, but I’m very hard on cars so I probably shouldn’t have a new car. I’m going to go back to beaters and trade it in on a new minivan for the SO. Anybody got a 1984-85 Mazda Rx-7 GSL-SE for sale cheap?
2002 Chevy Avalanche - The truck everyone loves to hate.
It’s desert green, all options including NorStar.Love it Love it Love it!!!
A stock 1962 Studebaker GT Hawk. Blaze Red, black interior, 289V8 (a Stude 289, not a Ford), A/C, A/T, P/S, Total-Traction (Studes version of posi-traction). About 140K total miles. It looks and runs great.
I also have a 94 Dodge 1/2 ton P/U
Purchased 2002 Chevy Impala…loaded. Love it. It is my middle-class “rich” (yea right) person’s car.
It is awesome and fast. Love the heated seats. Yep, love OnStar.
1986 Ford Mustang. 2.3L (four-banger) engine. 150,000 miles. Two hubcaps. Surface rust. You get the picture…
