Garage Queen
|
I want either an Aston Martin Vantage Convertible or Ferrari 360 Spyder. Of course, I would need a double lift in the garage first so I have parking for everything.

It appears the next one is a 2008 Ford Edge. It's that brilliant copper color. I really dig that color. Looks like I'll get it the end of the year, first week or so in January.

I just got my wife a new winter beater, a '96 VW golf 1.8 gas.
I had 3 golfs (2 given to me free), took all the best parts (new springs and struts) off and made one, plus I had to put new front rotors, wipers, replace/paint the rear hatch and get an alignment. I think I have $600 into it, not counting my labour of course. ![]() Seeing as she puts on 50K km/year I'm so happy she loves Golfs in the winter. She will be driving a bug during the summer. The "good" car is now mine.

I would have liked my jag more if it wasn't an XJR-6. I always felt like I was walking on eggshells with that car. It was in fantastic shape, but I always worried something would go wrong on it. funny, i just had a dream last night that i was driving it around. reminded me of when i "raced" a mustang GT on 465 around indianapolis late at night. at 155 when i hit the limiter, i had about 10 car lengths on him. definitely was a fun car....

A man could certainly do worse. Love the Bullit.

ever get the suspicion that marketing types are using this site to gather information? anyway, i plan on running the f-250 to death. it's got years left in it. if i had to replace it, i'd look for a jeep 4x4. i would go to great lengths to avoid buying new.

My next car will be a Pinewood derby car. Trying to figure out what I should make it look like. 911 maybe? or should I do a 914?

I made a 914 derby car as a kid. I wanted to do a 911, but the 914 was a far easier shape to cut out on a band saw.

Love to replace my Land Cruiser with an 06-08 LC that's in really nice shape, I hate the way the new ones look. Why they design that thing like that, God only knows. Or, a current 4wd Tahoe. Love the way they look. Square and simple. I have had enough 2 seaters or sports car for a long time. A sedan would be nice for a change. I don't what's out there? A Caddy seem so nice and fast.

I got a good lead on a car tonight that I'm looking at tomorrow. 355 it is.
I forgot how exciting it is to be in the market for a car....

After my VW Golf dies I'm considering making my 911 my daily.
Just need to swap out the headers for heat exchangers. I could add Air Con but probably won't. With a bit of luck the old girl should last until gasoline becomes too expensive

You should let me try to talk you out of that 355...
