i love my IS250, everyday I come home and go in through the garage I just stare at her :)
Although I don't drive her anymore I still wash her from time to time...

next to do on the list is to polish off the oxidization off my VOLK wheels :'(




i love my s14, but i fucking hate it right now.
getting tired of its shit.

O2 sensor / old car problem
Fuck you s14. piece of shit

i personally love my f150. its so fucking comfy to just cruise around in and its honestly the perfect road trip vehicle and it can easily be operated 365 days a year without any issue.


i still miss my old bitch. 03 Acura TL A-spec in nighthawk black pearl. my god she was beautiful. i used to do the same thing grim does with his is250, just go into the garage and stare at her and know that everything in the world is right. the looks i used to get in that car were amazing lol. i still get looks in my truck but it feels like most of them are just negative.. i swear so many people just yell "douchebag" as i drive by. but oh well..


but im a true car nut at heart and still have yet to own any kind of sports car.. parents always prevented me from buying one, even with my own money. they were just trying to look out for me like any good parents would do. but this is something thats just near and dear to my heart. my heart lives for a big ol thirsty v8 up front mated to a 6spd trans and rear wheel drive, and that exhaust note.. my gawd! one day i will have you corvette, one day...

I love my teg. I bought it for my first car with intention of selling it shortly after but then the mods started and I dont picture myself letting go of it at all. I do get bored of it but after some driving , I fall in love all over again...

MaaaadMan 02-27-2014 06:25 PM

Didn't really like my old 190E so I sold it. I do miss dat comfy suspension though. Love my corolla I have now...except when I go over a bump in the road and the worn engine mounts make it sound like it's about to fall the fuck apart.

nabs 02-27-2014 07:11 PM

I don't think I have ever loved a car more than my first Frontier. Every vehicle since has paled in comparison. :okay:

The TSX is okay... but don't really feel like spending money on it anymore.

Yodamaster 02-27-2014 07:50 PM

I'm in a love hate relationship with my MK2 Jetta, it's awesome at some things and frustrates me with the rest. Interior is a 10 and the ease of maintenance in the engine bay is a 3 at best.

I've been looking for something to replace it that's not front wheel drive, either a 240sx or something like a Datsun 620 or Mazda Repu truck, something simple.

Marshall Placid 02-27-2014 08:05 PM

It's smooth, a little boring, and quiet until I switch to S mode, and that changes everything and can literally lift my mood every single time.

It makes driving very enjoyable.

Love my car and she is a keeper that keeps on giving.

mb_ 02-27-2014 08:14 PM

Love and hate relationship with mine. Every time something breaks or have to fix something that's in the engine bay, I want to burn it to the ground. Random rattles here and there, parts are hard to find and when you do find them, prepare to sell one of your kidneys.

That feeling changes once I start to drive it. Can't wait to dump money into it when my financial commitments frees up a bit :D

Spoiler!

EndLeSS8 02-27-2014 08:19 PM

Yes, I <3 my IS300. That's why this is my 2nd one

Iron Chef 02-27-2014 09:05 PM

I love it enough to own it for 14 years, love at first sight does exist.

k3lv 02-27-2014 11:37 PM

She needed new tires
They didn't fit
It broke my bumper
At home she sits

Still I love her

Klondike 02-27-2014 11:50 PM

I don't hate it, but I certainly don't like it. Only complaint is that it's not a manual.

Edit: Forgot to mention it's an '03 Corolla CE.

RRxtar 02-28-2014 10:47 AM

I love my jeep so much I get underneath it at least once a week.... lol. I haven't had the feeling where I actually want to tinker on something all the time, like I have with my jeep lately.


My 05 F350 puts a grin on my face everytime I hook up to the 11,000lb trailer/bobcat/attachments and roll out of the yard and wind thru the gears to 90km/h with the turbo whistling at how cute I am...

but at the same time I clench my butt cheeks hoping to not blow the heads off the 6.0L lol

acrophobia 02-28-2014 08:16 PM

Our 08 Mazda CX9 is heavy, slow, and thirsty. I've come to realize that owning/driving an suv is like owning a truck, minus all of the functionality. Also, I will never own another dark-colored vehicle again...I swear the paint swirls and scratches if you look at it wrong.

But...I run to work everyday and only drive on weekends, it's comfortable/big enough to road trip with the kids, and most importantly (by a long shot) my wife likes it. ;)

Qmx323 02-28-2014 09:58 PM

I like how im the only one thats able to put it in 3rd without grinding

Geoc 02-28-2014 10:56 PM

It's heavy, guzzles premium worse than a full-size pickup, unforgiving ride, constant chase of electrical issues, but everything I've ever doubt that it would fit has fit without question. It's like driving a van without the stigma of driving a van. I'd be lying if I said it hasn't grown on me.

dared3vil0 02-28-2014 11:01 PM

^ Wacha drive?

!Yaminashi 02-28-2014 11:12 PM

I would love it more if the fucking suspension didn't clunk during cold weather

My passion for cars evaporated and my heart ached because of the stress and disappointment for a looooong ass time. :(

Was it red and made in Japan?

:troll:




I certainly don't love my current DD. Used to cost me $200 in gas every damn week and it keeps throwing CEL's every other week, regardless of how much I diagnose and fix it.

That said, she's 400,000km's old and is physically in far better shape than most cars with a quarter of the mileage. And I suppose I liked it well enough to justify a bunch of engine repairs a couple months ago. Oh, and if I were to be honest, I guess it's a nice change to actually be able to go off-roading on proper trails instead of being concerned if I'm going to scrape my front lip on a speedbump.

I feel you man. It was a pain and expensive to get something fixed. Every time I wanted to do an upgrade, something always came up and needed fixing. But the moment you start driving it, it just didn't matter anymore. FD would be awesome to have though, I'd like to also have one, but it's gonna be a hell of a money pit.

Qmx323 03-02-2014 11:44 PM

Its not love, without hate to balance it out

heleu 03-03-2014 07:33 AM

I don't love my current car, but I like it. It's got all the bells and whistles I want and the utility (i.e. 4 doors, 5 seats) I need. Sometimes I wished I got the Legacy GT wagon for more space, but then it never came with the 6 speed.

What I really loved, was my red '91 MR2. Yeah, it didn't have air conditioning, was super bumpy, loud, and uncomfortable, but I felt excited every time I drove it. Too bad I had to get rid of it after 5 years...

But may be it's time for a second car?

nma 03-03-2014 07:51 AM

first car was a manual 8th gen civic, loved that thing even though it was super slow!!
Always wanted to get a STI or S2K, but I ended up getting an E82 and I couldn't be happier!

Verdasco 03-03-2014 10:26 AM

my baby just reached 1000 KM in 2 months :)

oversteers a bit too much (which I do not like) wish it would be balanced instead of twerking like miley cyrus in a lot of turns :/

was fun driving in the snow for the first time, lost control in a lot of neighbour hood areas but will probably never do it again.

other than that, I can not wait till it gets super sunny 24/7 so i can wash it. Will look like brand new soon! And then BAM! summer hits!

Grass is greener on the other side :)
