Wow. Some of you have really small penises.

Er, except for possible LOA.

Gotta love my new car...

I have a 1993 Plymouth Voyager. All the space in the back comes in handy sometimes.

I'll say. Accordians do look pretty big.

I don't own this car yet, but as soon as I get a job, it's Mine!

Our M-Body 1981 Dodge Diplomat S-Type Coupe

Cost: $600CAD / $416USD
Powerplant: 5.2L/318 2bbl V8
Transmission: 3 spd Auto
Cool stuff: Power brakes, steering, windows. Am/Fm/Cass

This car RULES. Most people will say 80's Chrysler cars are unreliable, but Chrysler definately got it right with the Diplomat/Caravelle/Gran Fury/Fifth Avenue (all basically the same car)..

My car: 1991 Ford Probe LX. Just turned 122003 today! 3.0L V6, but the cool thing is the ground effects. White car and white effects. It is a testarossa body kit. Other probes look like Miranda's compared to this Sovereign! (In my opinion)

*laughs at UM and TSN*

And it's not often I do that, so be grateful.

Still, you think that Frank's accordian looks big, you should see Simon's trumpet.

I have two trumpets, actually. I salvaged them from my father's uncle's old house. I cannot play the trumpet.

Oh, right, sexual metaphor. Uh...I do play the sax. Get it? Get it?

Yes, I get it it. Mainly because I also play the sax. Ah, the hilarity of every person who sees me with it saying "do you give good sax?" Because, you see, sax sounds like sex! Yes! The hilarity! Never mind that no-one ever says "do you give good sex" anyway.

Cretins. Hope they all die.

My first car, which I still own is a:

1991 Nissan NX-2000. Black with T-tops.

I've had it for about a year with no major problems, replaced the 2 front tires last summer, and both headlight bulbs. The engine and transmission work fine. Might need new brake pads, they make a scraping sound most of the time when I brake.

I plan to start fixing it up now that I have a full-time job. Get a CD player, some repair body work as well as some customized body work, tint the windows, smoked headlight covers, rims....

My goal is that by the time I finish to have it look and run like new.

I was hoping to just get myself a new car, a 2000 Toyota Celica. I was able to afford it, but not the damn insurance cause of other 18-year old drivers who've gotten in accidents or tickets. About $200 a month, dispite my clean driving record. On top of a $350 monthly car payment I wouldn't of had any extra money to save or spend.

Hobbes,

Get those brakes looked at ASAP. That sound could mean you're losing your pads, and if they wear down too much, you'll damage the rotor -- and they cost way too much to fix -- it ran me almost $450 to replace my rotor when I wore through it. Ugh.
