Mercedes Benz E-Class (it's by far my favorite car out of all the ones I owned)

I also have a BMW bike.

2009 Pontiac G8 GT

I finally have a car that I truly wanted. Unfortunately, crappy Baton Rouge traffic doesn't allow me to enjoy it



an Escort GL 98, like this one, but with stock wheels:

don't know when I'll have the money to get a new one though lol Brazil sucks...



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

08 Mitsubishi eclipse GT



I was walking down along the street and I heard this voice saying, "Good evening, Mr. Dowd." Well, I turned around and here was this big six-foot rabbit leaning up against a lamp-post. Well, I thought nothing of that because when you've lived in a town as long as I've lived in this one, you get used to the fact that everybody knows your name.

I have a 2001 Mitsubishi Mirage. Great little car and hella fast for only being a 1.8L V4 with 111 BHP. It's much better than my old car which was a deathtrap POS Cavalier (seriously it scared me to death in the Winter)

The picture isn't of my car specifically but it pretty much looks exactly like that.

It's cool seeing all the people with Peugeots, Fiats, Renaults, etc. We don't have any of those in North America.


I am curious... have you ever seen a KTM X-Bow driving in america? And how about german cars, or the japanese cars?


I'm not sure what that car is my good man. But yeah Japanese cars and German ones are everywhere. We just don't have French ones like Peugeot and Renault.

America has plenty of German and Japanese cars. I wouldn't be too suprised if there are more japanese cars than american cars in the USA. As for German cars all major manufacturers except opel and audi are fairly common, but those aren't impossible to find either.

you would with our gas prices. as example yesterday, i had to pay 1.72€ for one litre. that is $8.70 for one gallon if i calculated it right.

for example the car of nintendopie's father would destroy us here financially.

ok we have a lot of opel/vw here but many who can't afford gas for a mercedes or so has to drive renault/peugeot/vw...

at least it helps the world to have gas for a little bit longer without these gas burning machines.

 

€dit: ah ok you have a lot of japanese cars there as well right? hmm maybe renault and son on don't advertise a lot in usa? are they even on the market there? opel for example doesn't sell the cars in india/china becuase general motors doesn't want it, they want to sell chevrolet there. to bad that's one of the reasons opel is financially destroyed, because they only have a small market to sell their cars.

2011 porsche boxster spyder, (red with black interior)

I had a 2010 (boxster spyder) which I loved more but it was parked in a multi-level high rise carpark in central city on the february 22nd earthquake and was a casualty when the park got pulled down with most of the cars inside.

This one i've had a bad run with, had engine issues a week after purchase (which were all very efficiently covered under warranty, though i did have to use a loan car for 3 weeks of my 1st month of ownership of this car, doesnt really give the 'new car' buzz) and then about 6 weeks after getting it back I hit a very oddly placed power pole when backing out of my driveway & damaged the front right panel.

I know many say porsches are overpriced & underpowered, but I just like the boxsters because they are cute, dont really give a hoot about specs so much. Plus its still fast enough for me to get speeding tickets (which is also annoying, i'm sure the police target the car based on colour/look!)

people who say that don't understand what porsche is about. it's not a car for people who like to drive a skyline which costs half the price but still accelrates faster or a muscle car which costs half the price but hast 3x more power.

and i don't say that because i' german, in gemany some say that as well and i don't get why they don't get that this isn't the aim of porsche. they could build a 911 with 2x as much power very easily but that's not what they are going for with a "standard" porsche.

A skyline, you say...

yeah as example this car. people who drive this car aren't the aim for porsche and this car isn't the car for the "normal" businessmen on the wall street.

it's pretty clear that it's a completely different clientele and people who have a porsche to win drag races are stupid and people who think they are good because they won against a porsche aren't much better because it's nothing special to win against a car not made for those things.

it's a car for people who like it a little bit noble, a car which nobody shall think "ohh neighbours leadfooted son". it's a car to look "reputable". there will be always some pimps who drive a porsche as well but they aren't the aim group^^

and for people who want a porsche with much more power for the race track for "serious" races  there are models as well but not the standard models you see at every second corner.



 

The one we bought for my girlfirend 2 months ago:

 

The one I will buy in the next couple of months:

 

Why I am doing this?

Saving for this one (not exactly this one, but something like this):

 

the one I will be getting in a couple of years (love the colour!):
