I always see loads of post this, and post that threads.. but I've never actually seen this one.
Figured it would be cool to see what the people on the forum actually drives.
So it would be cool if you just posted make, model, year and any other pertinent information regarding that vehicle.
And at last, but definitely not least, post a photo of your OWN car, not one that looks just like it.

I currently drive a Miata, but it's being traded in next week for a Merc.
Here are pics of both!

I get that reaction from everyone that actually knows what it is, usually former Rocco owners.

God, just tell me to shut up already. I have a clear anti-domestic bias and a lack of facts.
This is my daily driver:



I love it. It's a '96 with '99 shock hats (more travel), cut springs (oh ya slice em), intake, header, and cat back. Just put in some Hawk HPS pads today. Near-future plans include a ported '99 Miata cylinder head with '99 Miata pistons (10.5:1). Long term plans include a roll bar and turbo/blower. That'll about do it.


(It's a 5-speed, OP)

Do you realize that fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face?
1999 Ford Escort ZX2 140k miles; photos were around 100k miles for all its worth. Great car, worth every cent of the 2k$ spend on it more then half a decade ago. Power Nothing; crank windows, Halfway working AC, and a 5-speed :911:

OH drat it!

FAKEEDIT: 40k miles, 2 Rear ends, one flat, one robbery, and at least 4 years ago, I plan on keeping that Escort till those wheels fall off.

This is only my car until I get a new Subaru Impreza, then I'm going to try and sell it.


Summertime.


2 winters ago, before I took off the plastic tinted bra/rock guard.

I'm somewhat offended. Palatka asked if my car was a Spectra 5 when it's a Mazda Protege 5! :P

He also asked why I'm selling it, and the answer is, as posted above, because I'm getting a Subaru Impreza as soon as possible. I drove to work in a crazy snow storm tonight where I thought I was going to get stuck quite a few times and had to plan my route to avoid hills unless I was going down them. Hopefully the main routes are plowed in the morning, though I don't know if it's even going to stop snowing by morning. I'd hate to be trapped at work forever.
