19 years old and I drive a blue 04 wrx sti
First car I ever owned :P :)

Now I said before I was getting a 03' Nissan Sentra now that is one but watching Spike TV's 52 best cars..I can afford either a Nissan 350Z roadster(just need to think about insurance with that deal), a 04/05 Mazda 3 Coupe or Mazda 6 4dr Sedan, 97 240SX(with a ton of engine mods) for just over 8K(CDN).

So as I rack my brain every second or every day I don't know which one I will buy....so many cars so little money!:(

19, England.
Harley Davidson Sportster XL 883.
Love it!

55, I think, PA.

1996 Mustang GT convertible and 1990 grandson of Secretariat.

Former I saw at a dealership, used, a few years back and they wanted $17k. Declined, though I loved it and looked online. The same dealership was selling it online for $12k...typo, btw. I called them on it and they gave it, er sold it to me for the 12. Love the car!!

The latter is my ride around the farm, and tho only one HP, gives me the same sorta thrill

im 18 and live in new zealand

I have a 1986 Mitsubishi Mirage that has only doem 60 thousand kms (dunno what that is in miles) and I'm the second owner (first owner was my Nana that drove the car to the dairy every shopping day and church on sundays)

i also have a Wolseley 4/44 which i am thinking about restoring as a cyclist rode into the back of it while my father was driving it (he was actually stationary at the time and the cyclist left a mighty dent) The car was parked in our garage the day it was crashed into and it hasnt moved since (it happened a few years after i was born) so im guessing it will need a new engine :<

25, Missouri.

Finally found some pics of what I have...

http://www.grm.net/~vhiggins/landyacht.jpg

1994 Ford F-350. 460, auto, 4x4, toolbox, battle scars.... Work truck.

And the other one....

http://www.grm.net/~vhiggins/MVC-005S.JPG

1983 Chevy C-7000 . 8.2 Detroit, 5 speed Allison auto, 10 ton hydraulic telescoping boom. belonged to the Air Force at sometime in it's life, although I think it was one of the slower things they had. (I once hit 62 MPH going downhill, but I was afraid to wind it any tighter.)

http://www.grm.net/~vhiggins/MVC-010S.JPG


Edit- I suceeded at finding out NikonNet is not a place to try to host pics.

2003 hyundai elantra 5spd.

mods: cold air intake, magnecor wires, msd dis II ignition, safc II, special order rota 16x7 grids.

planned mods: header, ported IM, possibly cams and headwork. (and obvisoulsy an exhaust)

either those or a project car to make really fast

None of your pics work man:hmm:

Wow that is an AMAZING first car. How quick really is it??

Fiximafied.

that crane is sweet, but what do you use it for?

Primarily for setting roof trusses, although I have used it to move a shed, set light poles, take sludge tanks off of trucks, and once helped retreive a dump truck that fell through a bridge. (Lifted while a wrecker pulled, I don't have near enough truck to swing a 10-wheeler around.... yet)

But most of the time it's a 35,000 pound yard ornament. :hmm:

22, clearwater fl

picked up an rsx type s little over a month ago, great car, just need to get my insurance down 3200 a year.. Need to pickup a part time job too while i goto school.. Insurance eats away the pocketbook =)

0-60' in 4.8 sec. :) its pretty quick.

well at least you put it to good use:D

25 Seattle Area.

2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS... Daily driver..25007 miles. No mods at all. Random Oil Changes is about it

1994 Acura Integra RS. 157994 Miles
New floor mats, Ichibahn shift knob, Reverse gauges, Tsudo Header, Greddy SP2 Exhaust, 17" Bronze Konig Blatants, More to come, including, rebuilt motor, forged pistons, more agressive cams, better stereo, racing seats... etc.

Just need money!!

I drove an STI for a minute or two once. I never took it out of second or off side streets when I test drove one (I was not supposed to drive it at all). The torque on that little four banger is amazing and it has no turbo lag.

DDDDave,
nice ElCamino. I always like those even though they have limited utility, I'm not a truck guy anyway.

On my way in to work every day, I pass thru Conshohocken PA ...sorry if that sounds like I'm ready to spit... and a dealer right under I-476 there has a white 1957 ElCamino on the lot for sale, looks original. Man, that car looks cool.

I don't know if I already posted in this thread or not:
1995 Toyota Supra, Twin Turbo 6sp, black, slightly massaged to allow 20+psi boost, no stickers. It's very fun and reliable.

My first car I bought for myself in 1972 right after I graduated from college and got my first job, it was a '67 Jag XKE Roadster. Man, I loved that car and am sorry I ever sold it. It was in perfect condition, 35k miles on it, and cost me $2000; today that car in that condition is worth around $40k. A couple minor Lucas electrical gremlins that I found I "corrected" the design instead of just repaired like original and never had another problem.

they are a 4 banger...damn thought the had like a Boxer engine in them....oh well!


And why where you not supposed to drive the car.....its a damn test drive thats what you do!

LOL Apparel With Balls....I like that

Engine Type -- 2.5-Liter DOHC aluminum-alloy 16-valve 4-cylinder horizontally opposed Subaru Boxer engine with Active Valve Control System (AVCS). Sodium-filled exhaust valves. Iridium spark plugs.
Horsepower -- 300 hp @ 6000 rpm
Torque (lb.-ft.) -- 300 lb.-ft. @ 4000 rpm

there's the stats of the WRX STI.. damn do i want one of those..

Now thats a long ass engine description.

It is a boxer design. Im being a laymen and using banger as cylinder.

I was not on a real test drive. I do dealer trades for a certain dealership and one of the salesmen snuck me the keys.

I know banger is used as a reference to cylinder.

Damn that sounds like a fun job.....and if a salesman gave me the keys to a car like that I would driven the nuts out of that car:D

I will have a Camero like your 30th anniversity. I will.

as im getting that body kit. as of now, i have no mods.

That's a really cool looking galant. Wow, I'm impressed. Looks a bit like a Mustang bread with a Beemer.

Thats a pretty agressive body kit. Not my style, but I bet it will look pretty good.

Don't have alot done to the car....shit that looks awesome:D :thumbsup:

So choskins how much did you pay them to sit on your car?




LOL just playing nice wheels:thumbsup:

It is part of my Corvette shop's bi-weekly meet at the local Hooters. (I don't own the shop, but I am their legal counsel. Oh, and unofficial spokesman, kinda like Mr. Wendy. LOL!)

for some reason i love the body styling of the older vettes like yours choskins.. the new ones are nice still.. but theres something about the previous styling that i really like... great looking car tho.. if anything.. id have some white rims on that.. thats the only thing id change :)

R3d, those are the factory wheels. It is a 1996 Grand Sport. The blue/white paint, red fender slashes, and black rims were all factory. They made 1000 of them as a tribute to the original 1963 Grand Sports that made racing history. I took it to Callaway to have the body kit and motor work done. That is why it is 1 of 4.

Humm they need a Hooters in my home town:D

here's a pic of my baby....2.8 bored and stroked out to a 3.4 V6 forged rods/pistons got a turbo kit not installed yet should bump me up to a little over 220hp or so @6-8psi...17/18" wheels

19. Wisconsin, USA. Put in about $1000 since initial purchase. Plan on spending another $1000 or so to make it go faster.

1998 Chevy Malibu. 155 HP V6. 75K miles. Runs like a dream, smooth ride. Very comfortable. 25% tinted windows (came like that). Bought it 3 months ago.

Custom stereo (specs in this thread: http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/showthr...87#post1244487 )

Planning on putting in a straight catback exhaust system and possibly a cool air intake, for shits and giggles.

I think it looks pretty cool, especially the side profile. I remember a buddy of mine having a turbo Fiero that was sweet! It was a GT and the forced air vent looked like a triangle coming over the roof.

The S2000 was gonna be my next choice after the TL if I didn't need storage and passenger space

The s2000 is a great weekend car - I love mine :)

-Son

I think the S2000 looks a lot like a Mazda Miata(sp) from the side..but thats just me!

Miata on steroids maybe

Well not that Monster Miata....with the 5.0 Supercharged Mustang engine under the hood!

you should get two Subs.....just sounds better!

just get a nice 15" - digital designs, treo, elcipse ti etc

^_^

How do you people under 21 afford such nice cars? I'm 26, driving a 1997 honda civic ex. I just can't bring myself to pay more than $350 a month for a car. They seem so disposable.

Mommy and Daddy? :lol:

I've got a 2001 Civic EX Black. Just like every other one you've ever seen. It'll be paid off in 8ish months :D

Ya I got the same problem....maybe I need a new job...

With the job I got now I don't think I will ever get a 04. Mazda 6 Sport 3.0l V6

I have a 1985 toyota tercel hatch, not even the 4wd model.

We have three vehicles:

- 1990 Miata (original model year)
- 1994 Explorer Limited
- 2000 Volvo S70

I used to use the Explorer as my primary vehicle when I commuted down to Silicon Valley, but my husband and I traded last year - I now drive the Volvo. It is quite peppy and fun.

The car has done a best of 11.87 @ 121 at Sacramento Raceway so it has it's share of goodies. I'm also proud to say I've done all the work myself in the comfort of my own garage. The car was only dyno'd twice. Both times not in it's top form...once when she was stock she managed a pull of 270rwhp and 305tq (not bad for a bone stock M6 LT1) and the photo above with just boltons + the car's first n2o kit (not the one pictured above).

lol the intake and more sitting on the garage floor durring the LT4 Hot Cam install ;)

Btw, choskins I envy you ;)

Very, very nice.

Don't keep us in suspense, what did it pull the last time.

121. Even with slicks, that's gotta mean 450+.

For all you car crazy people you should check out [url]url] It's a pretty cool site probably has your region already on there. Beware, there is ALOT of shit talking going on in there though.


Edit: Deleted the web site address./ I'm a n00b and I just read the rules and such. So I went ahead and deleted this before I get in trouble on my second day here;)

34 living in Belgium

Bought my first "decent" car in 1998 : Audi A4 1.9 tdi
Now I drive : Audi TT 1.8 20v turbo
Next car : new Audi A6 3.0 V6 Tdi

I wish I had a TDI right now with the gas prices all jacked up. I have thought about trading the GTI in on a TDI but just haven't been able to bring myself to it yet. Eventhough it would be pretty easy to get 400 ft lbs of torque outta a 100 whp car:)


I love the Audi's. I have the 1.8 20v turbo also. Wanna race? :)

Ok .........but let's do it in Germany.

Do at a drag track....unless you like the rush of the cops catching you....I know I do:D

Thats no problem in Germany.

seems like a waste of money to ship your cars over sea

I wish I could come over to Germany. I'd love to see all the German Spec cars. I hate the US in that aspect! I wish we could have the same cars over here as over there. You wouldn't happen to have some pics of some nive VW's would you?

Here you go :http://communities.zeelandnet.nl/dat...showpage=28884

i am 20 from southern california.

i currently drive a '94 ford ranger XLT 2wd. i blew out all four shocks a year ago out at the desert and i am saving a few more bucks to get my truck ready for next season (memorial day weekend). i am gonna have it torn down and have it fully caged and custom long travel suspension put on with most likely kings all the way around. if i have the money i will three link the back for added fun. this all depends on if i can get the money and if i can get the time to help my friend fab my truck at his shop. soon i will be getting my sisters '83 volvo 240 off her for a daily driver. i love both cars, they haul me and my board to the beach and that is all that matters. pardon the long post. does anyone else have an off-roading truck (desert, mud, rock, whatever)?

Thats sounds like a bad ass truck Mobsta....but its doesn't matter how long the post is here, well I guess if you don't keep dragging on which you didn't. So enjoy your stay!

i live in portland i have a 66ford truck and a 90 aerostar van and a 71 datsun 510 with a l20b in it

WOW!!! Those are a little extreme. Nice but different. Thanks

I love the 510's.!!!!! Any pics?

Ok, I gave up and finally got a nice car...

I present my new child, the 2004.5 Volvo s40...

as in baby you mean the car right!

Yeah ;)

Ok good:D

I found some pics, but I can't seem attach them and I don't have any pics online to link to. Am I missing something, or are all these pictures I've seen, links, not attachments?

Actually the pics are 6 years old too, couldn't find any recent ones.


The MR2 isn't running right now, I popped the turbo, and plan on doing some more major alterations instead of just replacing it... But as we all know, the biggest plans move the slowest....
