What do you guys drive?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

What do you guys drive?

Car? Truck? Motorcycle?

I have a 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1, which (lucky for me) happens to be my all time favorite vehicle (right after the Millenium Falcon).

Anyway, I was just curious about what my fellow freelancers drove.

(edit) Forgot to mention, my car has a 351 Windsor V8 engine with a Holley 4 barrel carbuerator. I'm hoping to replace most of it with performance parts, though.

I drive a maroon 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe. Love it.

I came. I saw. I conquered. And sometimes get conquered.

My car just met the big car dealer in the sky
I will miss my Volvo 340 gle. The electric windows, heated seats, electric wing-mirrors, temperature gauge for outside the car, all these things were good................but the rear wheel drive and 1.7 engine were better There's nothing like a rear wheel drive car for sliding on gravel!!!!!!! and snow We were snowed in a while back and that night as I drove home with the missus was soo much fun. Driving sideways always puts a smile on your face!
Sadly I am driving her automatic metro....no heater, no electric windows....no 1.7 engine......no fun

Good news, should be getting new car this weekend
An emotional time.......

This is my car, well not my car but the same model as my car.



It's a 3.8 pushrod V6 with 127Kw with a four speed auto trans. I've just spent $2500 getting the trans re-conditioned but I still need to spend a few more thousand getting a new exhaust system and the front end suspension sorted. The front end on these cars suck. Oh it's a Holden Commodore BTW, you may have seen the race going versions at Bathurst.

I´m currently driving a very old Honda Civic 1.3 (automatic) from 1986 !!
Because I have a rather large dog and my wife is due to give birth to our first child somewhere in September, I´m pretty much forced to buy a new and bigger car. I found myself a new car, but I haven´t bought it yet. Soon though...

Here´s a pic of my soon to be car:



Volkswagen Golf CL 1.9 TDI 66KW VARIANT

I own a dark blue 1990 Acura Legend. It's been a pretty good car, V6, lots of goodies. It's on borrowed time though. I have about 218,000 miles on it and it's got a few problems. They tell me I need a new rack and pinion and it would cost about $1000 to replace that, but I don't want to fork over that much money and then a week later I blow a rod, or the transmission gives out. So I'm going to keep driving it until it dies. The engine might go for another 100,000 miles because those Japanese engines never give up but other stuff is going out. I had to replace the master cylander, the alternator (it was $200), and the turn signal arm. Still, paying $100 a month to keep a car running is cheaper than paying $300-$400 for a new car, but part of me wishes the car would die.

Let's get those missiles ready to destroy the universe!!
