I drive a Toyota Corolla now because I'm too lazy to take my [insert German automotive company here] to the shop every day for repairs.
That and I want a Civic Hybrid soon.

Dude. That is exactly what I said when that Charger came into the shop. The Challenger's just beautiful eh?

I want a diesel vehicle. And some place to buy B100. Cheaply.
And a large room full of gold, while you're at it.

I had the same preconception until I saw several of them being driven in the World Rally Championship. It even won the Manufacturer's Championship last year.

I drive a "Millenium Falconized" version of a 1992 Dodge Dakota. The way I view it, I'm only a few more replacement parts away from having a new vehicle.

It is a truly beautiful car. At least, the concept car is. I saw a spy shot that looks like the rear is more like the Charger than the concept vehicle. A little undecided yet how that's going to look.

There's a Honda commercial where two women are describing their cars as "cute". After seeing that, both my wife and I agree that we'd never own a vehicle that could be called "cute".

Yeah, Cute = Unmanly. Unmanly = waste of steel. If you're going to make a car, at least put a 440 big block in there. And some mag wheels, yeah baby!
I saw a Yaris yesterday, actually I was stuck behind one while the driver couldn't decide which pedal made it go faster. They look like clown cars in a way.

I drive a Junkion- I even have a metal Decepticon emblem covering the Buick hood ornamant. It used to be grey, but now it's mostly bare metal and suck trivialities as a muffler and gas cap have been sacrificed in favor of the perverse desire to ram into an expensive car who's owner is yakking away on a cell phone.
Freedom is knowing that your car is paid for and can be left at the side of the road to explode without so much as a look back.

What do you think boyos? I'll hopefully be taking the keys to that sometime next week. I still have to talk to the bank about a loan, but I've got pretty good credit so there should not be any problems. I can't fucking wait to take that baby for a ride. I'll make sweet sweet love to it!
