I chose my DSM because I love 4-cyl performance cars and the DSM had everything I wanted. It's only 100lbs heavier than your average Integra GSR. I love the whine of my walbro pump, the spooling of my turbo, the whoosh of my BOV (that recirculates mind you) There really isn't any other car quite like it, unless you've owned one you'll never understand. I know there's much faster cars out there, but the 2.0 liter can pick on cars twice its size. It's the rawness of the car, it'll shake you to pieces (no balance shafts either) but put your foot into it and it's utter gearhead nirvana :thumbsup:

I wanna know why you chose the car you did. What made you fall in love (or hate) with it :naughty:

2003 Evo 8. Bought it back when they first hit the states. I wanted speed. AWD and 4 doors. Got 58K on it and it has been a fantastic car.

Because I can beat up on most cars on the street, and get 20 MPG in a 3/4 ton truck. Also the smoke thing is cool when dealing with idiot tailgaters.

I bought an Integra GSR several years ago because I was looking for something good on gas and fun to drive. It has served me well.

I rarely listen to the radio, the sound of a good old american small block V8 with flowmasters and headers is sweeter then any song

73 Mustang...come on, do u gotta ask?

i chose it cause u see plenty of mustangs on the road, but u never see the 71-73 style. there are loads of 65-66's, some 67-68's, a handfull of 69-70's, mine is the only one that i have ever seen around here.

My lug nuts require more torque than your honda makes

Because my 2007 Mercedes-Benz Sport Sedan is a........Mercedes-Benz. And while I probably won't beat ya I will be really comfortable while acting like I can.....

Okay, I lied, that wasn't my last post here, but it's 5 am, and I'm fucking bored.




You are awesome.



2nd gen Barracudas are one of the best looking cars ever made, in my opinion, and as for the wagon, I've always had a soft spot for bigass wagons, especially if they have big blocks.

Me too. The 5th gen legacy turbo hit the states late in 2004, and sold as the 2005 model.

I really needed 4 doors and AWD.

I was looking at the EVO, WRX, WRX STi, Isuzu Rodeo and Audi TT (don't ask).

I saw a commercial for the Legacy and figured why not test drive while I was at the Subaru Dealership.

One drive and I was hooked.

I've owned two since then.

well I wanted something quick but i was 17 at the time and insurance on fast cars would kill me. So I bought a semi-quick truck that is easy to build up. 4 years later and I don't want to go to anything else.

I wanted a 5.0 for the ease of adding more power. Mustangs....everyones got one..so I got my Lincoln. Couldn't be happier....get comments everyday on it. I've got speed & luxury...good combo!

It was cheap, good gas mileage and was close to where I lived. What else could you want...well, it is still VERY low in performance lol

I got mine because we had just moved, I needed something cheap, but required certain things:

Car (not truck/suv/van)
Rear-wheel-drive
Manual transmission

When we got in, I had an 86 supra on reserve, but on test drive, it had basically no oil pressure and I would have had to drive it over 100 miles home.

So after getting back and looking around, noticing nothing fit the bill or price range. My grandfather here is a car collecter, and so is his brother. Both have a pretty substantial collection, my grandfathers latest treasure being a Chrysler SRT6. So there were a few fieros sitting down here that he said his brother might sell. Then I saw him one day trying to sell it to a prospect and walked on over and inquired which he was selling. Unfortunately, the GT model wasn't for sale. The other one didn't run. So, desperate for something, I offered to buy the one that did straight up. It worked alright, some basic things failed but were cheap and easy to get going. It was only 2 seats (for myself, my wife and our 1yr old son) which didnt bode well but we also had a van we were able to use from time to time. Besides it was 2 grand cheaper than the supra. So I had some free cash to throw at it.

And BTW the thing is still working, and better than ever except that the ISC has failed. No big wing haha.

86 Crown Victoria, Started as my Dad's project when I was young. After I had been driving a year and I guess he figured I probably wasn't ever going to crash a car like most young drivers, he passed the keys on to me. I got it with a 99% completed engine swap and still a full grandpa car otherwise.

I proceeded to rip into it and now have the same engine with some small tweeks, but I have a new posi rear with a better gear, 5 speed manual conversion, racing suspension and 275 tires on all four corners, and a lot of little things as well.

He drove it yesterday for the first time with the 5 speed, tires, springs. Brought a tear to my eye to see him uncontrollably smile while driving it. Glad I'm still doing things right by his car. Because it'll always be his car in my eyes.

I got my car for free. Can't argue with that. Plus I do enjoy off-roading.

couldnt say it any better

I was just looking (barely) for something to drive. My grandpa had just retired from the mill and he didn't need it anymore. I asked him and after giving up only $500 I got my truck. It's good on gas, looks halfway decent (and isn't a Ford :D ) so I'm happy with it.

Part of the family, so it comes with the territory

Cutlass:
My first car (still have it), bought it when I was 14 because I didn't feel like getting the [insert 4 cyl econobox here] that everyone else had as their first car and had been saving money for a Oldsmobile since I had been raised with them. It was a I6, but didn't matter since I knew it wasn't staying in long and with only 22,000 original miles I figured I couldn't pass it up.

Camaro:
Needed a POS Dailydriver/Winter rat to get around buffalo and travel back and forth to classes. I get shit for driving it in the winter, but others just don't understand that RWD cars can be driven in the winter because they're just too damn stupid and can't control their own feet and drive carefully.
