View Full Version : What do YOU drive?
So just wondering for the folks of you who drive what you currently happen to be rocking?
RIght now I'm driving a 79 Malibu Classic that my dad gave me. Not the best car and it is kind of falling apart but she has character and I love my Janet
Couldn't find a good pic online.
Will try to take one tomorrow

I just got my first car a few weeks ago when I was in Philly for a bike race. Since I was near home, I stayed with my parents for a night, and earlier that day we got a car for me since I'll need one for work this summer. I didn't see the need for one in high school, and having one for college made no sense when I can use the buses in Allegheny county for free with my student ID. Though there is a fee in my tuition of course.
We got a 2002 Toyota Camry Solara for me, since Toyotas are very reliable. My mom brought down the price by $1800, so the final price was $9050 instead of $10850 I guess. She can bargain really well. The mileage was only 35000, so it was a pretty good deal. I haven't driven it much yet since it's still at home, but I know I'll get enough time to do so this summer. Oh, it's a silver car with a black interior.
Seems like a good idea to add a picture.

i'm rocking a 1990 toyota corolla. Light blue, a lot of rust, a busted out back window (the little triangle window actually, which was a self inflicted wound when I couldn't afford the 150 the locksmith place wanted to charge. Always told her I'd get her fixed, I put some duct tape on her).
Mostly it's pretty good on gas, and the ac and radio still work. Power locks and windows. What more could i ask for?

When at home I drive an '05 family Taurus or a '93ish Dodge Grand Caravan POS. In da city I rely on public transportation and my good old legs.

I've been looking for a late 90's/early 00's subaru impreza sportwagon. Also have been considering on getting a small pickup or suzuki samurai/sidekick. And if at all possibe I'd love to find a good ol' suzuki gsx or ducati monster but I can't really afford a monster, or too drop it so most likely the suzuki.

1996 Lexus ES 300
The smoothest car to ever grace the roads of our planet earth. My parents have 3 other much more recent models of Lexus (Lexuses? Lexi? Lexeese?), but this one is by far the most enjoyable to drive. Also, like 6 of my friends have the exact same model and make. At about 180k miles right now, still going strong.

An '05 Red Ford Focus. Nothing fancy, but it gets decent gas mileage and only has around 52k miles right now. I plan on driving it for a while...

I sometimes drive my instructor's car, which is a green Seat something. It is of course a stick (this is Europe). I love driving!!
Oh, next monday I have my theory exam.

'05 Grand Am. Been through alot in the last year (broken into, wrath of nature, etc..) but holding up well. Averages 25-30mpg depending on season and enough oomph for my need. Pic was taken last year before all the stuff occurred.
Had gotten a deal way too good to pass up with one minor downside but she'll be run into the ground. Bought around 25k miles, up to 43k and just typical maintenance.

'Cept mine's dark blue.
38,000 miles. Though it'll probably crap out around 40,000.

A 2000 Pontiac Grand AM. Mine looks exactly like this only it is white. I havent had any huge problems with it, some minor stuff like my AC stopped working and one of the wheel bearings is out which is a 250 dollar fix, but really you have to expect things like that on a 9 year old car.
