I\'ve got myself a 1987 Nissan Sentra.  It\'s very fast and powerful.  And not old.  Yeah.

Nah, it gets me where I\'m going, but I\'m not a \"car\" person.  Right now I need to have it looked at, since the throttle has this nasty habit of sticking open in the \"full\" position once opened that far.

Only problems with Mitsubishi\'s is the insane level of recalls on their cars that they have.  I only own one because its fast :P .  Stick with foreign cars though definately unless you are looking into trucks.  By foreign I mean Japanese, European cars aren\'t all that reliable, however Lotus does make some sexy cars (Neighbor has an Elise).

Right now I have a 1991 Mazda MX6 LX which I\'ve rebuilt from the ground up. Engine rebuild, brake rebuild, suspension... you name it, I\'ve done it (err except body work I guess because that\'s too expensive for me). It has about 175k miles on it right now, and not a speck of rice. Whenever I save up enough money and find some room I want to buy a beat up 68 Mustang Fastback and that\'ll be my spare time/money project for the following few years.

2000 Dodge Neon and I love it. Very reliable and supprisingly quick. Wish I had the money to go trade it in for an Neon SRT-4 though.

You do know of course that the Veyron is ugly (only my opinion of course), it wont be able to turn and oh it will never go into production.  I am saying that last sentance because the likelyhood of any car like the Veyron being produced and/or being any good is highly unlikely especially from a company with the track record of Bugatti.

Also people think Supra\'s are really good *coughricerscough* but the car which I want to buy at the moment would cook even the best supra, that is of course straight out of the box.  Now you can go and guess what the car is (here are some clues though its British though quite a few people think it is American, the only thing to my knowledge that is American is the 428? 7-litre Ford engine; its old 1960s, and can travel at 289kmh stock).

-Zorium

P.S. Only a few seconds of research should help you find the car I want.

P.P.S. Just because I want to buy it doesn\'t mean I can afford it :P

Just as much horse power as my car, and I\'ve never heard anyone complain that my car is to slow?

Eh, not a fan of nitrous.  Ruins engines, but Supra\'s handle it pretty good.  Gotta love Toyota quality being able to hand twice as much HP as to what it was designed for :p .

Yeah!  :D

You can\'t go wrong with a Honda.  They last forever, they can take insane mileages, they\'re very reliable, they\'re cheap, and they save on gas (environmentally responsible, for a car, at least).  They\'re manufactured in Ohio, too!  :)

We had a silver accord of 11 years.  It was donated to charity because my father couldn\'t stand driving it anymore.

I am due to inherit a \'99 Black CRV when I finally get around to learning to drive.  (Which means long road-trips for me...)  It smells of rotten McDonald\'s food.  :P

The key to manipulative bargaining is to ask for something twice as big as what you want, then smile and nod when you are talked down to your original wish. You are still young, my apprentice, and have much to learn in the ways of the force. -UtM
