Hi Guys, slow morning at work for me today so I thought I would find out what you guys drive. So like it says in the title...
I drive a 1991 Ford Fiesta 1.1 and yes it is my first car. I it is the biggest bag of bolts you have ever seen, I am currently having to start it with pliers as my key snapped. I would get you some photos to add to the mockery but...I don't want you to laugh too hard and hurt yourselves.
I currently drive a 2002 Chevy Suburban. It is completely stock at the moment (pics available on web). Later, however, I am going to completely rebuild the car with some much fatter rubber in the rear and an air ride technologies suspension kit (even though it is an amazingly smooth car to drive in stock form). That along with a completely custom interior, and a custom built forged LS motor with either twin rear mounted turbos or a Procharger F1-C running into it. I am thinking upwards of 800 horsepower at the rear wheels would be about right. And I would also convert it to accept a manual transmission (T56).
But the car that we just recently sold was much nicer and had a certain factor to it. We used to have a 2007 Dodge Charger Daytona of the Sub Lime Green variety. We had number #1359-1500. It had the 5.7 HEMI motor with the MDS function ( shuts off cylinders when not needed) which was really very cool because it enabled us to get upwards of 26MPG on the freeway (driving through Mojave at 90MPH) and that was with a HEMI motor. It was interesting because it was loosely based on a couple of Mercedes models from back when Chrysler and Mercedes were co-owned/connected. It was a very smooth ride for a sports car but it was even more so a nicer ride when it was running around 100 or more on the open road. It was nice having the HEMI motor because of the wide powerband. It would keep pulling once you hit 110 like it was going 60. I think that it has a maximum speed of around 150 in stock form but I wouldn't know because we never got it up that far.
I would have more pics but my external Hard Drive failed and I don't have money to get the data recovered.:o

my mum's 03 Toyota Corolla T3 1.6, its not bad, luckily I got insured on it - no one insures 18 year olds on an R33 - its not like Im going to go fast in it pfff =p. It isn't bad until you try to overtake, then you realise you may want to go faster but it takes a while for it to accelerate past Cap'n Slow.
LuisNieves - parking is damn close =p I think it is actually touching that pillar =S
