The Astra looks so cool.

How much did you spend on it?

That model could be my first car.

That stingray looks brilliant. I'm quite positive that's also my favourite Corvette of all time. You should be proud of the restoration :D .

Just a quick update from my side of the globe. Erm, I washed the car the other day, I finally managed to get WA plates after (technically) driving it illigally for over a year :) , I removed the spare tyre to save weight (which actually works), and I have a picture of the ruined paint from that idiot Corolla driver who drove infront of me. Rivveting news (I know).

The only Corvette I don't like the look of is the 1980s-early 90s C4's, except for the Grand Sport. I absolutely LOVE the old Stingrays, and the C5 Z06. Utter pwnage....

Nice, but what do you think of the new ZR1? Or just the C6? And their Le Mans car... =P~
Anyway, (i know, off-topicness yet again)I always thought that the front-end of stingrays were a bit high off the ground compared to other parts of the car...

The title is what car do you drive, not what car do you own. :P S'why I posted the Miata - I drive it more than my dad does.

Can't excuse the 'car' bit, though, though it's hardly an offense - you're just splitting hairs. ;)

I finally got a real car now... I hate driving it in the winter though. Its great in the summer.

2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS
35 Anniversary Edition
Sunset Orange
Black Leather Interior
Sadly an Automatic, but I wanted it and couldn't find one with the same specs and manual for a reasonable price. Gotta take some pics with my dad's 2002 Pontiac Firebird next to it since they are both Sunset Orange and the last year of manufacturing

I bought it last year and I'm looking into getting new rims and tires and a new stereo system and possibly an Air Ride Suspension.

Great Camaro, Razkit. The best I've seen, actually :o .

I'm now really jealous of that fact that you drive a 3rd-gen MX-5. I never really loved them before (I liked them, but never actually wanted one), until I sat in one a few days ago in a Mazda showroom. I didn't drive it... but just sat in it, and I instantly fell in love. It was such a great environment to sit in, it felt like I was one with the machine. I can't explain it properly... but you'd understand :P. Now I can't stop thinking about it. Waaay out of my price range, but I'd love to take one for a test drive some time.

You don't sit in it, you wear it. :mrgreen:

I've actually been driving my dad's truck the past few days (even that has better fuel economy than the Eclipse), because my dad wanted to drive the Miata. That can be fun to drive, too, admittedly; big, muscley V8 with a 6-speed manual transmission. I especially like the soundtrack. 8)
