I love cars, do you?

Which brand`s are your favorite, and which do you hate?

Do you like driving, or not?

Talk about anything that`s related too car`s and car motorsport`s here

I don't have a license yet but....is Subaru Forester a good small SUV?

I like Land Rovers and Range Rovers and Dodge musclecars primarily the Challenger.Don`t like Japanese cars.

Lamborghini Murcielago in orange, please!
I have driven a Land Rover Freelander, at a car museum. It was scary.

I like the Pontiac Sunfire minivans. their front grilles are very similar to those of the Routemasters.

Ding-Ding!!

The Forester is the BEST!! !!

I'm going to take it a step further and get the Subaru Tribeca.

Mostly foreign cars...took my driving test with a Saab (an old 1977 GLE)...back before GM took over Saab....had a bunch of VW's once upon a time, mostly air-cooled, 69 Ghia (polar white, lowered, de-chromed, evil little car), 73 bug, 56 bug, 83 GTI (that was a fun one...red, 5 speed) others.... I really like cars period...old muscle cars, customs...etc.

The 73 bug (super beetle) I drove for over 10 years...I think I finally ran out of things to do with it...I de-chromed, shaved the turn signals, installed one-piece windows, chromed and detailed the engine, custom wheels, custom bumpers, custom interior & sound system, and I ditched the drum brakes and installed a disc brake kit. "Normal" girls liked to go out on dates on the weekend...I stayed home to detail the car.

It looked great, got noticed everywhere...but had absolutely NO heat in the winter time.

I used to like driving when I had back roads to explore and time on my hands...and when I was feeling up to the journey. A free weekend usually meant a "road trip".


Not many pleasure runs anymore...I mostly drive an old Ford F150 extended cab (like parking a whale)...it's extremely bad on gas...but great for yard sales.

I love the old american cars. They have their faults but they can be a blast to drive. nothing like a big V8 torque to make a little fun on the back roads.

My preferences in order:

1. Jaguar
2. Mercedes-Benz
3. BMW
4. Corvette
5. Porsche

Somewhere way down the list is my car, a 2005 Hyundai Accent. It's not bad for a teen car though!

No, no! Those are the cars you see everyday! You realise how much pain this is causin' me!?

These are the cars I see everyday:

Ford Taurus (I'll go insane if I see another one of these on the road)
Ford Mustang
any type of truck
BMW
Ford Focus
Honda CRV
Honda Accord
Hyundai Sonata
all types of SUVs

And did I mention Ford Taurus?

Jaguars are actually pretty rare around here. In fact, I now have a Jaguar log of where and what type of Jaguar I spot- if I can get a good picture of it. I've had to re-start it three times due to unfortunate circumstances, so now I only have two Jaguars. And dealership ones don't count! Especially since I don't live too far from the only one in the state.

Didn't they stop making Taurus's?

I'd probably go with a pre 1960's Bentley.
Though, if I couldn't manage that I'd also
enjoy a Mercedes from that period.

Chord's are cool too though.
Ooh, or maybe a Peirce-Arrow (the whole Buffalo connection)


Ah, and how can one forget the epitome of unique: the Hupmobile.

Only for this year. They're going to be released again next year with a new name. Figures they'd be, like, the only car in history to do so in such a short amount of time.

You know what's even worse than a Taurus? A hatchback Taurus!

I drive a red 1968 fastback Mustang and love it.

I remember when they first came out.
Pretty much the closest thing to an innovation
it auto design that there's been in my lifetime.
They looked REALLY odd. Now everything either
looks like them, or some throwback to the 40's.

HOLDEN....its the only way to drive
