Do you LOVE your car?
Sports & Autos is a friggin' morgue so here we go...
As some of you may know, a few have even joked, I own two Mazda Miatas. ![]() and ![]() I truly dig my little cars, to the point where I go on organized cruises with other enthusiasts where we sit around and talk about our tiny cars in between spirited drives on twisty roads with views like... ![]() Now I know, a lot of you are struggling students who rely heavily on public transportation, but the rest aren't burnt out hippies and 'one too many DUI recipients' I'm sure. So I guess ITT we discuss your rides and how you love them and what you do with them... Oh yeah, and show off my stable. ![]() Any more automotive 'enthusiasts' out there?

I love my car a 04 WRX.... but I am definitely not a car guy, nor a WRX guy. I picked it up when i was driving a lot and my boss game me a monthly car allowance.... my loan was $300 a month and i was getting $200 so I was paying only $100 a month to drive a WRX I still owe 9K on it, and I am paying the whole loan now. I treat it more like a truck then a WRX. I have my muddy dogs in it, I strap wood to the roof.... it def has some wear and tear... O well.

I'm not sure what to say to you ~1~, my friends and I always talk about how stupid those guys look who drive around in their gay little miatas together.
This being said, here's my ride. ![]() Specialized Hardrock Mine has yellow stripes on it, instead of grey. |

My dad gave my his shitty Ford Taurus that I actually haven't even been able to drive yet because there's problems with the fuel filters and other nonsense so it doesn't actually turn on. It does run beautifully when it works though.
But I do love it because I can go down to the parking lot and hotbox the fuck out of it.

97 ranger (custom interior/stereo/ suspension/ and a few go less slow items)
05 silverado stereo/exhuast) I'm a car junkie for life. I spend more on my trucks than I do on me. I'm a member of Fear The Heights Car Club and a petitioning memeber of IV Ever Low. A nation wide custom truck club Miatas aren't a joke they can be hella fast & scary. Mustangs are my favorite cars in the world although Pontiac G8's are sexy as hell.

I would have to say I take my vehicle for granted...I blame it for things that I have absolutely no reason to blame it for..like having a bad day or whatever else may be bothering me..I'll find one little thing wrong with it...because a vehicle has so many things to do with it..and blame it on it.
Fuckin car!

LOL ... miata
Shai's car is dope I sadly don't own a car.. yet. This is the kind I'm saving some money to buy right now: A pickup because it's got the versatility for the types of things I want to do with it. If I was just getting a car for my price range and didn't care about functionality, it'd be this:
