mmm... Touareg.. good times indeed. did she get it with the air suspension?

Yea, you can see the little knob for it on the right side of the center consule. Its makes a comfortable ride and is really fun to play with.

You heart a lamp? I don't get it. Please explain.

Have they started selling the V10 TDI in the US yet?

I love... rug
I love... desk"

(the lines are something like that)


They used to sell the V10 here, but then they stopped. My mom has the V8, my dad though the V6 was to small for that heavy of a car. The V6 and V8 get almost the same fuel economy. Hopefully they will bring back the V10 and why not the W8 Passat.

I remember this thread being called post a "picture of your car" not "argument about your car".

Actually, this is the "quote stats about cars you don't own thread." The "argument about your car" thead is three over.

Thanks for playing.
 
Well, as of today i don't own a car.
:(
I sold my beloved Karmann Ghia. I feel like crying!

At least i still got my Vespa (see in the background)

My next car will definately have all the 20th and 21st century goodies:
ABS, airbags, Aircon, powersteering, etc.....

Have you got jacked-up suspension on that thing?

The suspension is stock, it looks horrible with those wheels, looked better with the RC's. I'd love to throw out $1k for coilovers, but I don't plan on keeping it that much longer... seems like a bit of a waste.

Actually, that angle does make it look alot worse than it does in person.

EDIT: if I lowered it I'd have major problems with the streets here anyway. I've already gone through two oilpans and a dead animal ripped out all the plastic covering from underneath a few weeks back. I swear I'm not as bad of a driver as I sound.

get a BPTD skidplate and slam that dub.. BPTD makes MK4 skidplates so pick one up.. you wont regret it. and +1 or +2 your wheels.. especially if you're running rubber that thin.

edit: cant spell
 
Here's my Toyota Alphard - an MPV (people carrier) available (last time I checked) only in Japan, Hong Kong (where I am), Singapore and other Asian countries that a. are RHD and b. allow parallel imports

Great car, same smooth V6 as the Lexus ES300, and came with twin TV's and a massage chair for the middle left seat passenger.

Other models available have L/R cameras that are viewable when edging out of blind T-junctions, middle row seats that double as wheelchairs (they actually come out on an extendable arm and get put down on the pavement), rear suspension that bottoms out to allow wheelchairs to enter through the rear. Also comes in a hybrid version. A local reseller has even modified the interior to create a partitioned rear seat section, a la limos

These cars are now the defacto luxury car in Hong Kong, even more popular than the S-Class

that's an old picture of me and my 2001 passat...

it's quite a nice car, actually. the turbo and the tiptronic transmission make it one heck of a ride.

One of a couple of things to be putting a smile on my face, got my new car! *dances about*

Honda haters, ****. Thanks.

<snip>

I'll admit that the S2000 is not my favorite car, but that's a fine looking automobile.

Congratulations on the purchase. I hope it thrills even more than the Mini.
 
Congrats! That was quick... hmm, is that a stock antenna?! You know what you should do? You should go to an S2000 meet, steal someone elses black antenna, and send it to me. :D

Nope, not stock, so I'm afraid I won't be pinching anything on your behalf! :p
 
Dude... why are you posting?!? Drive that bad boy and tell us about it later.

Well, maybe you got it a few weeks ago. ;) But, if it's brand-spanking new, I sure hope to see you absent from these forums frequently. God, I miss fast cars.
