What kind of car do you drive?

and do you have a favorite car?

right now I have a 96 CV police interceptor, yes it does 139 mph top speed and smokes the crap out of the tires.

2001 black convertible corvette with a top speed of...not sure. I know at least 160MPH. LOL

and i have a 96 Chevy Tahoe. black on tan leather.

my favorite all time car is a 69 Chevy Chevelle SS. I owned 3 of these in the past except one of them was a 71.

When my husand says it's time to get a new car, the first thing I ask is: what's the gas mileage like? The second question I ask is: what color? He wants to put me in a minivan but I am happy with my station wagon. The moms in my suburbia world all drive minivans or HUGE SUVs and sometimes I get frustrated because it is so hard to see around them. Anyway, I think his plan is for me to have a minivan so he can have a truck.

I'm waiting for the hybrids to get affordable.

PS My first car was a silver mustang but that was during the ugly model years.

minivan-YUKKO

you should get another mustang. the saleen is a good car V6 and it gets good mileage. I have never owned a stang yet, but this is the last summer for my vette because I know gas prices are not going to come back down under $2 a gallon and it is too costly of a payment with gas going so high.

so...i am looking at either a mustang or transam. i just DO NOT want the ls1, that is for sure.

You could always get a Hummer Lunamoth

I drive an old, hand-me-down, green caravan with stickers on it from when my mom used to drive my sister around. When it dies I hope to get a used hybrid of some kind.

My parents drive a PT Cruiser with wooden doors. Its so ugly its cute...

My car is in the States. It's a black Cavalier I plan on keeping till I'm an old geezer (yeah, I'm a cheapskate).

I drive a VW Passat V6. Black with tan leather seats. Wood grain dash with the blue lighting. Bose Speakers.

I love Roadsters, old and young, from the Kharmann Ghia to the Lexus SC 430. However, my favorite car is the BMW 745. I hope to own this car one day: Navy blue, or silver with mirror tint on the windows, black leather seats, and the smell of lavender arising each time you sit down for a ride up the coast.

I'm not a big SUV fan, but I have to admit that the HUMMER really does appeal to me in some way.

that is cool. but you have to take the stickers off the caravan, unless one is a real neat decal.

i am no t real crazy about the retro/modern look. but i do like the PT Cruiser it reminds of the twenties and the mob. I think that came out right around the same time they remade the VW Bug.
Cavalier would be a cool ride. Bet it would be pretty easy to make mods for.

you know what truck i would really like is a Lincoln Navigator

VW sure has some nice cars out TruthSeeker.
I love roadsters too. One of my favorites in a 57 T Bird...back when they knew how to make a T Bird

you could get it in convertible or removable top.
i think 2 seaters are the only cars that look good to me with no top.

No, just sparkley star stickers and things of that nature, stuck on the window next to the middle seat. When I got the car I placed a KoRn sticker on the bumper so it wouldn't be so soccer mommish. Of course by that time I had already lost interest in KoRn.

Hi,
It's a silver CRV.
I live in a forest along an off road track, silver cars dont show the mud like some. And when its washed, its from natural spring water from the well.
Got a new car sticker. It says - Miracles Happen - but been waiting a long time now to be sure. Hmmmmmm maybe its trying to tell me something!

lunamoth · 03-31-2005, 06:34 PM

Sounds cool, Ciel. I used to live in the woods and I loved it, except I did get lonely sometimes. And it was hard to grow vegetables. At the time I had a little black Civic sedan and it had a hard time in the winter getting up our driveway. The farmers next door had a great time watching me get stuck, and then came over with their tractor and chains. After that I got a nice Subaru, which will get you there snow or no snow, and now we've moved to Suburbia. Oh well. It's nice here too in its own way.
