Jeep Fo'Life or at least until I'm done with college
The pictures were taken with my 3GS
Love the Jeep. I inherited my parents old 89 Cherokee when I was in college and it made me a fan. Currently have a 2000 and love it. Perfect size for running errands, carrying people and cargo. Don't think I will ever get rid of it. Cheap to work on and in my experience they have been damn reliable due to the 4.0 and the 231 t-case. During our blizzard it was unstoppable with 4 studded snow tires.
I had a grand inbetween that I racked up 282,000 miles on until it was time to retire it.
Gotta love the NSXI rarely see any around here so I go nuts whenever I see one haha. I'm hoping to repaint my car soon too (bit of hail damage
Heres an older pic. Been beating the hell out of it since 05 and it still runs like a champ...still looking for an engine swap though
Very nice always like to see another RSX owner on the board =). My car used to look exactly like yours, but I did a few upgrades since then:
This is the most recent picture I have. It was in the process of getting detailed, hence the blue painters tape.
Yeah they are pretty great, not a a huge fan of "massive" SUVs so it works perfectly, it's nimble enough to be taken on trails not to mention the cherokee body design is simply timeless
. Do you do any off roading with yours?
looking good, thats pretty much the look I'm going for now haha. what are you lowered on?

Nope, only car and I just moved to a condo, so that means no wrenching on my car. I almost put a 2" OME lift on it just because it supposed to handle a little better, but then gas prices went crazy and I didn't want to spend 1200 to get less MPG.
1200 bucks ??
I hope that was including labor!I'm debating whether or not to use my tax return to lift mine 3 or 3.5 inches, decisions decisions

Old Man Emu lift, full suspension kit. ~800 for full leafs, shocks, brake lines, springs. Maybe it was 3", plus some for a t-case drop and you can get up there quick. It was including labor as well.
It sits fine now. I just got a cruise kit from a different forum. How can a car made in 2000 not have cruise?
Mostly new photos, but added a few older ones for the sake of being comprehensive. Fun car, but there's a small chance I might be moving on soon so definitely not going to put another penny into this car.
Few from my latest shoot:

Engine Bay:
It's a 2009 135i 6-speed manual with a bunch of stuff.

If he likes moding, then something with a Small Block V8 would be ideal. Those things respond to mods like nothing else......

Not a fan of American cars...aside from a Z06 or Ford GT.
But corvettes are too big and wide for me. I like cars that can be parked into smaller spaces, especially being a daily driver. And as fast and great performing the CTS-V is, I honestly think it's one of the ugliest cars on the road. I can't stand caddy styling. But as I said, I've never really been a fan of American car designs. I can appreciate the beauty of the classics, but the new stuff is just meh. American cars are all about being big and having lots of chrome accents. I can't stand chrome on cars (as you can tell from my car).

Nice bimmer! I love the Black with Red pin striped wheels. Let me know when your ready to sell... cheap.
Seriously, though. I think this will be my next purchase, sometime in the not-so distant future.

wow those old man emu lifts are expensive, I just checked them out $755 for a 1.5in, granted it does come with leaf springs, but I think i've seen them from rubicon express way less than that. Old man emu lifts must have higher quality parts.
That's a good idea, my mine doesn't have cruise control either. How was it to install?

Damn, you got my hopes up until you mentioned the wheels.

Easy solution then.
Buy a vehicle( like the E92) that can fit a V8 in the engine bay. And then swap in the LS3.
Didn't say it had to be a GM vehicle, just a Small Block V8. Me too! What great character- I would love to buy one. There's a great account of a tii restoration job on the net, would be a fantastic project sometime. You're already a few steps ahead of me in that you have the car

You can actually buy such a thing.
