Favorite Cars? (house, punk, member, classic, quote)

phoenixflames · 07-07-2005, 08:11 PM

Figured it would be cool to have a thread where we could list our favorite cars and WHY you like them.

For me:

Modern:
BMW M3 and also BMW 3 Series
I really like their styling and performance. Not too bad on price either (I can get one that I would be happy with for $3000).

Classic:
1967 Chevrolet Nova
I love the look of this particular year. They are easy to find, but unfortunatly, they are quite expensive. I love almost all classic muscle cars, but these are my favorites. Sharp!

Have any pics of the Nova??

I had a 1970 Monte Carlo, but I can't find any digital pics of it. If I run across any, I will post them.

Current car: Mini Cooper

Sorry the photo sucks, but it's the only one I have at the moment. Basically it has the Union Flag on the roof and two bonnet stripes in white on the er, bonnet.

Dream car: Tough one, but probably a 1966 Shelby Cobra, or a reconditioned Jaguar E-Type. Never going to happen though.

^ Cool car man! I'm sure you know Minis are made by BMW?

Does anyone like those Scions? The ones that look like cracker boxes?

Old: 1964 Ford Falcon
New: The new VW SUV (don't remember the name)

It's pretty hard to get away from the BMWyness. Especially when they want to charge £130 for a new tyre. *******s.

EDIT: The profanity aimed at BMW pricing, not phoenixflames. phoenixflames is not an *******.
