I always find it weird seeing the G8's. They're so damn common where I'm from , the city where they're built (the front end is different, but there are a few actual G8's running around), so I never take a second look or even consider them anything more than another car.

But from your end, they're more rare and different, so must be cool... hrm.

I would love to have the VE Commodore bumpers in the states... So much $ tho.

My last car was a 2005 GTO (Monaro), obviously I have a thing for Holden V8 cars. lol.

Got some new hubs for the Elantra, lookin' good. Getting her ready for the 18 hour drive to Chicago. Just needs a wash, and she'll be good.

Not my car, but one of my favorites was parked at the Ray's game yesterday afternoon :D

Well, I don't have my OWN car, as I'm not legally able to drive in the State of Ohio, you have to be 15 and 1/2 to drive. I'll be on the road very, very soon!

Anyways, we have three cars. My Mom's new ride is a '01 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited, that's mine when I'm 16. Optional 4.7L V8, all the options except one. Bought it March 1st, with 133k miles. However, the engine only had 11k. New engine was put in it! My Mom also has a 2003 Ford Taurus SES, and her boyfriend has a 2010 Dodge Challenger SE with the V6... :(

And yes, I'm kinda leaning towards the Jeep over the Challenger.

Here's a photo of the car (when I last detailed it, the end of April), the odometer as of today, and the only modification I've done to the car. I put an OnStar FMV mirror in it.

Shiny clean:

Odometer as of today, July 16th, 2012, 7:50 PM:

The odometer says 143,953 on the body. So, the engine has about 21,953 miles. Not bad for a 2001.

Lastly, the OnStar FMV mirror. I pay the bill, I chose the Directions & Connections plan for $28.90 a month. It's the most expensive one, with all the features. I haven't used it because (like I said) I cannot drive, but I use it all the time with my Mom in the car. I love it.

Lastly, the keys...

My newest car. I'm surprised with this photo's quality as it was taken with my iPhone 4S. (Yes, my vanity plate does say "MAC GURU") :p

Thanks! It's fun and gets some looks.

Needs new differential mounts and has a squeaky bushing or suspension arm in passenger rear that I'm having looked at.

She's for 125k and running strong. Just changed clutch, valve retainers (good insurance) and oil jet bolts (preventative). Got a new stereo and put some dynamat in.

Need to tint the side windows and soft top window to match hard top. Red interior makes me :).

Picked this up Saturday

Significant change compared to what I had before (Jeep Wrangler) but change is good.

Uh-oh! I hate to be the one to point it out... but...

Someone forgot to paint your gas cap. I'd go back to the shop and complain.
