94 Honda Accord. But I really only use it once a week or so. Easier to just use public transit where I live.

That's a great looking GTI you got there!


Yours is pretty slick, too! Nice list of mods going on there. My friend who bought my 99.5 A4 1.8TQM keeps bugging me to buy the Neuspeed Super K04 kit but can't afford it now. Besides, I dunno if I'd get that kit or a bigger lens...tough choices!

I haven't done much to mine perfomance wise other than a GIAC chip, Forge SMIC and a Neuspeed rear sway. The GIAC chips surges like a mofo. I can't wait til October when I get to go back to Pahrump with racerfactory. Anywho, enough babbling... :)

My daily drive to get to work and back is a governemnt owned 2002 Chevy Venture. It's my K9 vehicle. Damn thing handles like a freakin marshmallow retaining water. Has decent engine power, but that's it.

The funnest cars I ever got to drive are Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptors during training at the RCMP school. Had a blast pushing it through the skills course! fun, fun, FUN!

I also had tons of fun driving my 1995 Acura Integra, but it's showing it's age. I wish I had the $$$ to trick it out though. My current dream car is the Subaru Impreza WRX STi. 150 MPH+ would be quite the ride.

I swore I'd never be the minivan mom, but let me tell you it's pretty damn nice having all the space and electric everything. Makes loading little ankle biters MUCH easier. :)


cool, i had a passport too. :) i wanted something that was along the same lines as space when i switched over to my MDX, for whatever the future may hold. and i swear this is actually bigger inside, without having a huge lumbering frame. it's snazzy looking and a blast to drive and still has electric everything and 3 rows of seats as well! i confidently take my 2 year old nephew everywhere in it. he thinks it's "pretty". ;)


That's a pretty sweet ride ya got there Alecia! Looks alot like a Passport from the outside. I would've done anything to go with a third row seating SUV just to stay out of a minivan .... but alas, laziness is what did me in. It's hard to fold the middle row down to let people in the back with 2 car seats in it and I was gonna be damned to have to take them out everytime someone wanted to get in the very back seat! :) I think it was basically the Quests marketing that got me.... you know "Because Mom's have changed, so shouldn't minivans?" Blah blah blah.... :-p I miss my Passport, but like I said, the Quest is pretty sweet (for a minivan that is). :-)

I'd love to get a Vespa or even an Aprilia scooter. At the moment I'm considering a gas Go Ped instead.

I would be happy in China. I paid for mine 660USD and is worth all the money!

lol, I had to drive a Venture as a rental car once...I'd have to agree with your comparisson. I likened it to driving a brick.

oooh yeah--i didn't even think about getting around the carseats. i have yet to try it, frankly, i've never even put up my 3rd row of seats, i just like knowing they are there! :) the only thing i've ever had to worry about transporting are my dogs, and heck, they just jump over the seats. :)

1995 Pink GMC Sonoma extended cab. It has 136k on it. The A/C went out this spring, & I am too cheap to fix it. Great work truck, gets good mileage for a pickup 25-28 & can get up & go on the freeway. Hoping to get 250k out of it.

1996 ford escort wagon ( green ) - 117K. i have yet to put the back seats up, use it like a truck, it keeps going. i can fit both our new kayaks on/in it...

the AC is broken, the rear defrost never shuts off, the speedometer just bounces all over the place so i never really know how fast i am going. it's been driven over a number of large items at fairly high speeds, it currently smells like worms or worm dirt, i have a triangular pen holding in the passenger side blinker light - ( been over a year now ;}, the get me home tire has about 600 miles on it, the rear window sprayer shoots straight backwards ( which is kind of fun when someone is tailgating.... ), the head lights are about as bright as a flashlight with low batteries, but all the important parts are new, and it warms up in a jiffy on those -30 deg mornings ;}

for a cheap car it is very usefull, and kind of messy most of the time.
alas - they don't make them any more, and i will probably buy a subaru or VW wagon next time around.

Here's a shot I did in 2002. It's not my daily driver but I wish it were.

'81 VW Golf Cabriolet

Called Eve Dubbs, she gets me to works and back everyday (40min one way over a bit of a mountain), body and mechanics in great order but needs a new roof and some trim, coming up for her road test next month so will have to bid her adieu :(

I wanna get one of those sporty Saabs when I start working though :)


I don't exactly have a sporty one, but I do cherish my silver '97 Saab 900 2.0 XS Talladega. second swedish car - the other one was a volvo 480es - you know, the little faux sporty one with the pop-up headlights (i like pop-up headlights, damn shame they've disappeared).

first car was a 1971 VW 1600 Type III Variant / Squareback. Bright orange. Killed in action (it was parked outside my home, and some lady saab driver drove into it, pushing it into a very concrete lamp post). cried, i did.

Subaru Impreza '95. No, not the bling-bling WRX version, but the Wal-Mart mom version. With dented fender after I 'helped' some chick in a Fiat to take a right turn. Reliable little car. Had to change the 'shield' under the engine once, after some rough terrain. But it was worth it just to see the look on the tuned up MMC Pajero driver when I showed up. :)
