Thread: What Cars do you have?

And also, it isn't as fast as you think...it only "accelerates" toward the end right before you have to shift, because as I said...it doesn't produce any torque until around 5-6k rpm.

Im not sure if the 370z is an improvement, but Im talking about the 350z specifically.

Sure, there are all sorts of supercars I'd love to have, but I'll never have supercar money, so the Z is a good compromise. Plus there is the style, I love the way it looks, inside and out. So for the money it's a great compromise.

1997 Ford Laser

I used to say the same thing but took a chance with the company who did not receive union bailouts from the taxpayers. I have no issues with my Mustang and would buy another Ford.

I don't just blindly support American companies. They must provide a quality product and support American ideals. Receiving taxpayer bailouts for the unions is not the American way. There is also a Nissan, Mazda and Honda in my driveway and the Ford goes toe to toe with them

Well, as of right now, I pretty much vow to keep loyal to one single car company my entire life...because I have yet to see cars that have better handling, better feel, better overall amazing-ness then BMW...

Yes...they are unreliable depending on the line-up sometimes, but the suspensions, transmissions, ratios...etc body styles (except for e60), just cannot be beat by anything.

Actually, the Mustang GT matches the M3's performance, and the Boss 302 beats it!

We drive the Ultimate Driving Machine. Wonderful cars, but expensive to maintain.

I'm not very materialistic... but this is one of the few material things in life that motivates me. I love the 350z, it's a brilliant car. It's reasonably priced for what it is, and with some modifications it will destroy just about anything that dares to challenge it. Check out 350z racing videos on youtube... the Z owns!

yeah ... Right.They look tough but aren't.My " Evo " { Mitsubishi }
a 2005 RS model takes it every time.On the back road my " Evo "
will destroy it.I'm talkin 286 stock h.p. in a car just barely
over 3,ooo lbs. with active Yaw differentials on All-Wheel drive.
and a Twin Scroll Turbo.My Car actually looks like an ordinary compact
from behind.Because the RS model doesn't have a big rear spolier.
But those who know can tell from behind by the width of the rear tires
or 235/45-17" that sit squat and almost perfectly the correct distance
apart.The " Evo " is a very balanced car with twice the rigidity as a
normal platform Lancer.it's beefed-up in the undercarriage with stout
aluminum parts like idler arms.

Since August I'm the lucky owner of an Opel (Vauxhall) Combo fueled by LPG (Liquefied petroleum gas).
You may say this beauty doesn't have any sex-appeal, but not only do I rejoice every time I see my bill at the petrol station but I also love the fact that this car can be magically transformed from a 5 seater into a van. Massive boot! I love it!
