Picture of your car (2010)

[Nugget]

I don't have anything to prove..

So if I guessed that maybe you were a 19 year old kid who dreams of buying a Camaro (2SS RS, IBM, White Rally Stripes, custom fuel door: Status: going to the dealer: soon) I'd be wrong?

I notice that the user "Muscle Master" on the site hosting the image you posted above does not own a ZR1. He does share your city (Philly) and birthday (April 7) though.

Congrats on the RN job, though. It seems like it was only a month or two ago that you were worried about getting into school and now you've already graduated?! You're quite an over-achiever.

I took this one a few hours ago.

Geez, that Nugget, always hatin on everyone. Anyway...

Hey everyone, check out my sweet GT3-RS...

It's pretty awesome, and stuff. I don't have any way to prove I own it, but here is a video of me driving it...

Just ignore Nugget if he says otherwise. As noted before, he is just a huge hater.

I always love your pics. I really miss the Prelude. It didn't really sell well, but it was a great car.

Pfft. GT3-RS. I raise you my Nissan GT-R.

Here I am driving it. See? That is me in the drivers seat. I was thinking ahead and put the camera behind me so you could see me.

Heh. I see what you did there.

Thank you very much! I greatly appreciate the comments.
I agree, it truly is a great car... in my opinion

I'm working on making some videos with the car, some comparison videos (before and after) and a few laps at a local track but that will have to wait until April/May as I believe the track is now closed

 

[SevenInchScrew]

Heh. I see what you did there.

Oh snap!

I was biting my tongue, but even if an RN made $100k, which in my experience they generally don't, I don't think for a second that any bank would give you financing for upwards $140k--$150k in vehicles. Even if the Camaro was paid cash as it's just a base model, and even with $20--$30k down on the ZR1 (which would represent like $40-$50k total paid in cash across both cars, still doubtable for an RN presumably with a house nice enough to park the ZR1 at), I still don't think a bank would give someone with a $100k income a $100k loan over a five year term. I bit my tongue though.

And FTR, my research shows that RNs make less: http://www.payscale.com/research/US/Job=Registered_Nurse_(RN)/Hourly_Rate

2006 Audi A4 2.0T DTM Edition

This is my car, I am 18 and received it as a graduation for going off to university next year.

I used to drive a 2002 Mercedes-Benz C240 and dad upgraded my car,

2006 Audi B7 A4 2.0T DTM Edition 6 speed manual (of course)

Was made to commemorate Audi's victory at the 2004 DTM championships


OUTSIDE
- Quattro four wheel drive
- Ventilated cross-drilled disc brakes
- Upgraded output (Up to 220 bhp/164 Kw and 300 Nm of Torque)
- DTM Carbon Fibre front and rear spoiler
- Additional rear and front air intakes and a rear diffusor with 4 inch dual bore exhausts
- Suspension developed by Quattro GmbH with spring and damper settings unique to this version
- DTM 18 inch, 15-spoke alloy wheels
- Door sills with DTM logo


INSIDE
- Recaro sports seats with silver side stitching upholstered in Alcantara with leather side sections.
- Leather and Alcantara 3-spoke sports steering wheel, handbrake lever and gear knob
- Carbon Fibre inlays

Probably more that I cannot remember but there are only 26 in my country so I would say it is pretty exclusive!

By the way, the fully optioned Mercedes E500 Coupe is my fathers. Finished in Designo Matte Grey Paint with Designo Beige interior

Congrats on flaunting dad's money.

It is a "post your car" thread is it not?

 

[quagmire]

Poor choice of words saying the E500 is your weekend car. My dad has a 2007 BMW 335xi and I drive it as well when I am home/on the weekends I know I am lucky that I have my parents trust to drive it and that it is a privilege which one can be taken away if I do anything to break that trust. Saying it is your weekend car, just gives off, " I am a spoiled brat" aura.

No offense to you, just giving friendly advice.

Is the E500 and Quattroporte your car? Getting the privilege to drive it doesn't make it yours.

I have no issue with you posting it as I have posted my dads BMW here before as well. But, lets just be clear that it isn't your car.

 

[puma1552]

It is a "post your car" thread is it not?

Are any of those four cars in your name?

Aston Martin: certainly not
E500 Coupe: certainly not
C240 that's your sister's: doubtful
Audi: doubtful, but I'll let this one pass if it really is yours

So I'm not sure why you posted 4 cars if only one is yours?

As you said, it is a "post your car" thread.



EDIT: LOL @ "my weekend car"

Though what is with posters coming in here all of a sudden posting things that offend members?

Advice taken and comments deleted

I didn't realise it offended anyone...my bad

Offended was the wrong word choice(hence why I went back and removed it in the original post, but you quoted it before I finished my edit ). I would more say members posting vehicles they questionably don't own which will get other members stirred up.

Well yeah, none of them are in my name, its legally impossible over here

And the Audi is genuinely the car I drive, I can remove the others if you want?

Ok to clear it up for everyone, I do not own the Maserati and Mercedes - they are both my dads

Well if no one believes me I can't really do much about that haha

Then I guess that's what I would do.

If you want to show the Audi, fine, I'd like to see more pics. But no point in flossing dad's other two Benzes and Maserati on the forum.

If you didn't notice yet, we were just finishing potentially exposing( as he can still prove he does indeed own it) a person who claimed to own both a Corvette ZR1 and Camaro. And then you come along and happened to post and show off your families wealth and it being your first post( always practically a dead give away of a faker).

So yeah, people are still a bit jumpy. haha

Oh ok I deleted them, I thought others would want to look at nice cars, I would if other people put them up.

Deleted them anyways

Yeah I did notice that RN guy.

Haha well I don't think I could pull my photos off the internet...is it really that unbelievable lol

 

[puma1552]

Any interior shots of the Audi?

 

[quagmire]

It offends some, and it doesn't offend others( just as long as you don't claim it is yours). For me, it doesn't offend because I am a car guy and love seeing all sorts of vehicles. Just state that those cars are not yours and that they are your dads and be careful of not coming across as being a spoiled brat( by not saying it is your weekend car). As long as you didn't claim those cars were yours, I had no problem with posting those vehicles.

Yeah I did notice that RN guy.

You never know. There have been tons of people out there that put in the effort of trying to get people to believe they own an expensive vehicle.

The one that comes to mind immediately was a person on another forum posting shots of a Mercedes Benz( forgot which model). Members asked for more pictures because they didn't believe him. He posted more pictures. They all seemed like legit pics too. Then the real owner of that vehicle showed up and exposed him by showing a picture of the vehicle with a piece of paper saying his member name and that it was his vehicle. What made that event even more epic is that the idiot still tried to argue that it was his vehicle( if I am not crossing stories here).

 

[Msc-Hockey]

Any interior shots of the Audi?

Yeah I only have on though, didn't take interior shots the last time I cleaned it,

Random ones

By the way, I didn't mean to upset you before with the photos. Just have a passion for cars but I apologize anyways,

Not a good start to my posting

Yeah I get what you mean. Was trying to say dad lets me drive me on the weekends...it just didn't come across correctly

And they are definately not mine as in legally owned...i think people get that haha
