What kind of car or cars do you drive? Pretty self explanatory. Tell about it too. And post pictures if you have any.

I drive a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue. It's dark green with a huge dent in the driver's side back door from where my stepdad backed into it. It's a nice car though and it runs really well considering it has almost 160,000 miles on it. It's got a 3.8L V6 engine in it pushing out just over 200 horsepower.

Also, in the summer when it's nice out I drive a 1965 Pontiac Bonneville convertible. It's a really shiny shade of blue. It needs some work like a new top and a patched up interior, but it drives like it's brand new. I love it.

If I had my way though I'd be driving my mom's Cadillac or Jaguar but those are off limits to me. The Bonneville is also hers as well but she lets me drive as long as I pay for the gas seeing as that thing is a damn gas hog. V8+20 foot long car+$4/gallon gas prices = hell.

Pictures of said rides:

Oldsmobile:

1991 Cadillac Brougham. Sadly I have a dad who played college basketball and was one of two white guys on the team so he always calls it a 'Bro-ham'. It gets shitty mileage too, but it is a damn comfortable ride.

(not actual pic of MY car)

toyota corolla 2001 .. bought it myself a few years ago and still runs like a charm. Great mileage, and has been around for its short life span

It'll be fully paid off in September which means an extra $260 in my pocket each month. hooray!

I had a rustic '85 AMC Eagle. Had to get rid of that accident-waiting-to-happen. Now I ride the bus.

2005 Honda Civic

its the cheapest model it doesnt have power windows or locks. It does have a cd player and tinted-ass windows though so I'm not complaining. It is really fucking dirty right now but it keeps raining randomly and I don't wanna waste money on a car wash.

yes coulombs are "germaine", did you learn that word at talk like a dick school?

2008 Ford Focus, I posted this in the other topic.

This isn't my car but mine is the same model, year, and color and they both look EXACTLY the same. This is the smoothest ride I've ever been in, I get 35 MPG and this baby can haul ass.

Also got some kickass 10s in my trunk and an amp so I be jammin.

I really want to get a better sound system in my car. I don't need anything SUPER NICE but I want to be able to get it nice and loud and have some good sound quality. I'm not sure if I want to wait and do it on a different car though. I'll probably have this one for a while, but I'd really rather wait to get a car with cruise control and power windows/locks. What do you guys think???

This is my ride, a 1990 2.0 litre Honda Accord. There were three "options" for it, of which I have the middle one with electric bling but without any luxuries. I used to have an -88 Ford Escort before and compared to that, the Accord is fuckin' awesome. Eventhough the car is old and has shitload of mileage it still works like charm; Honda knows how to make awesome cars. Most of it is still original (except for stuff like brakes and all that shit that wears down).

The pictures posted aren't of my car, but are of same model and color as mine.

It's an awesome car. <3

Go figure, I live in Texas, so I have to drive a truck... well, not really, but anyway...

2006 White Nissan Frontier King Cab Edition (Straight-4)

Not a picture of my car, but the correct color/configuration. And I get anywhere from 20-30 mpg depending on how well I drive. Yes. 30mpg in a truck. Hyper-miling for the win.

I went to a shop that sold/installed sound systems and got my speakers/adapter/amp/wires/box and stuff from them and installed, it was only 400$.

If you don't mind shelling out a few more bucks and aren't really good at installing that stuff then I'm sure there are places around you that do that kind of stuff.

Ford Ranger 2001

not mine but it looks the same, i know nothing of automotives but it seems to work pretty decently, also the cd players buttons randomly dont work sometimes. It works for me because i live in a pretty redneck town.

Pretty sure we already had a thread like this, but I'm a gearhead.

1990 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo 5-speed. All stock except shaved rear spoiler (I dont like wings), a generic pop-charger, Monza exhaust, and Fidanza clutch.

First time I jacked up the car, I got to see how stiff the frame is. I lifted the front passenger wheel and the entire passenger side came off the ground.

And Fairlady Z badging!

no man i live in vegas i will definitely get it installed, im just not sure i want to spend the money on a sound system for this car. maybe when i sell it i can put the old sound system back in it?

a lot of the pics are not the actual car, just the same make/model/color.
