View Full Version : What car do YOU drive?! (Year and Make)
Hey guys,
I was just wondering everybody's tastes in cars! So what kind of car do you drive & if you're not happy with your current car, go ahead and list the car you'd like to purchase in the future!
My current car: '06 Lexus GS300 Fully Loaded
Next car: Preferably German! Not that I'm not happy with my current one, but I just prefer German engineering over Japanese engineering.

I drive an 02 Ford F-250 diesel. It's my baby. Just put a 2 inch lift and 35 inch mickey thompson's under it. :D
I'm currently fixing up an old fox body mustang with my dad, found it with a motor in a junk yard for 300 bucks. Guy told me that motor would never run :p
I beg to differ ;)
Probably won't use it for street driving, but it will definetly run the track in soon time. I atleast want high 12s low 11s. :)

Ford all the way, saved many of family members' lives through the years:
2009 Ford F-150 (Weekends or for long trips, family car, etc.)
2009 Ford Focus (Wifey most of the time on weekdays/work)
2010 Ford Escape (Me most of the time on weekdays/work)
* We switch from time to time, no permanent designation :P
Dream car:
Any Porsche or Audi sports car. Can't afford one now, but maybe in the future after we're done with our mortgage and if wifey approves :P
PS: Not really a car fanatic, so everything bare stock for resale value in the future since we've been trading-in our fords for newer models since early 2000's just paying the difference of the amount (buddies with the car dealer, that helps too with the interest rates)...proved to be the most financially manageable method on long-term as far as car puchases. So, we'll be ford family 'till we grow old most probably :P.

Lmao, I by no means can race. It was a joke :)
Not even sure if my car is even that good of a car to race in (it was a hand me down, dad upgraded to a Mercedes S600 V12) I think it does 0-60 in like ~6 seconds though.
It satisfies me though, definitely. The "power" mode which allows the engine to get to higher RPM's, therefore faster acceleration is definitely satisfying though.
Currently it's a stock, but I plan on modifying a little bit (if that's possible).
Note: Flow, I did pay for the car even though it was a hand me down, although I only paid half price. Dad wanted me to save the money for college tuition, so that's the arrangement it came down to.

Also, leave the moonroof (note, I didn't say sunroof) open when you leave your car parked. It helps A LOT.
