Feel free to talk about Cars (the real life vehicles and/or the movie), your favorite ones ( both real and fictional), your least favorite ones, etc. ( motorbikes are welcome too!).

Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way in; in cars

Let's blast this driving through the hood- okay maybe not.

IS THAT A SUPRA?!

Every little kid wants to have at least one of them way back then.

My favorite car, the fiat 500

 

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

I learned how to drive on this one. Very reliable, despite me being its 13/14th owner.

I am working on fixing my dad's 1999 M-B SL500
(this isn't the actual car, but it is the same model)

Good luck on fixing that car, I'm sure he'll be proud

Not a car guy here, but I do enjoy driving.

My favorite is Ferrari Testarossa Spider, obviously because of Outrun. On a nice day, I often ride out to my regular pizza spot with Magical Sound Shower on the background.

Music, man, motor, isolated from the outside world.
The music making you nod your head to every beat, while the outside's just passing you by, y'know where I'm coming from?

My first car (not, dad bought it for my sister, I just use it sometime) is 2007 Honda Fit.

Then my second, or rather my real first car is 2012 Mitsubishi ASX, lots of history with this one, I fitted a Japanese JVC head unit so it could run region 2 DVDs, now I can watch Japanese stuff on it, mostly concerts and MVs. I sold it just few days ago actually, It's getting pretty old and the maintenance is starting to get expensive too.

 

[Kid Dynamite]

I don't know much about cars but I've always liked Dodge Vipers.

 

[mayocat]

My irl car: 1986 Toyota Celica 2.0SX. It has the first-gen 3S-GE in it.
It's so much fun to drive

 

[Clippy]

Other than my undying love for Lotus Esprit, one of my favorite movies when I was a kid was The Wraith. The car in it, Dodge M4S, looked so badass.

 

[Antilocal123]

Yeah, took out a loan for this bad boy, cost me a fortune but it drives like no tomorrow.

Jealous? Yeah, I know.

Here's a history of all the cars my family bought over the years:
The first one we bought was a 1979 Volkswagen Scirocco that we also used for a bit after we moved out for the first time.

Then my dad sold it and bought a yellow Saipa 131.

And then, after we moved out (again) to a rental home, my dad sold the Saipa and bought a 2012 Hyundai Elantra.

And then he sold it as well when we moved out (yet again) to cover the expenses of our new house.
And then last year, my older brother bought a 2014 Kia Cerato.

(If you can't tell already, my family likes to move out a lot.)

My dad used to own a White 66 Ford Mustang when I was a kid.

Not this picture, but it looked just like it.

Those scirroccos are beautiful, it's a shame you don't have it any more but keeping an old car on the road can be expensive

[Aisf]

Mario kart cars are cool vroom vroom. Buy a Honda you won't regret it vroom vroom.

Dad first car was a blue 92 Jeep Wrangler

Then he switched to 95 Corolla

Then a gold Toyota Innova, this is exclusively marketed for SEA only if I remember correctly. Good, reliable, but eats through fuel like a bitch.

Switched to a Nissan X Trail not long after, this is also the family's first step on buying Japan manufactured car for the foreseeable future.

Anyway, my sister got a Honda Fit for her birthday.

That was all family's car, move over to mine, my first real car is 2012 Mitsubishi ASX, or better known in Europe and some part of Asia as Mitsubishi Outlander, one of the worst car to ever exist according to Jeremy Clarkson, but hey it's pretty damn good to me, I had this for 12 years.

My current ride now is Suzuki Baleno, pretty recent too, bought it early February last month, it's cheap for it's price, has a conventional AT which is rare these days as every other car now use CVT, it looks like a sexy hot hatch Audi S3 except it's from Walmart, and the best part, it comes in red.

I'm currently working on modding this, engine wise it's reliable even on stock so no work is being done there, except maybe adding another radiator fan later since it only has one. I plan to reupholster the seat to all red, adding an android head unit, and rig a PS2 inside somehow, I wanna play NFS Most Wanted in it.
