    2004 Honda Accord coupe six-speed V6

    Pros
    • It is pretty quick.
    • It has a 6-speed gearbox.
    • It is red.
    • It gets okay gas mileage.
    • It looks fast.
    • It is paid for.

    Cons
    • It does not grip the road like an S2000.
    • It does not handle like an S2000.
    • It is not as fast as an S2000.
    • It is not an S2000.

    Pros (revisited)
    • My knee does not hit the steering wheel every time I release the clutch, unlike an S2000.
    • No gay rainbow tachometer, unlike an S2000.
    • It is paid for, unlike an S2000.

    2002 Cadillac Deville/DHS, bought it in 2007. Can't fit in anything smaller than a full-size, but didn't want another SUV just cuz it's the third scariest thing to drive in a snowstorm: after a U-Haul van and a U-Haul truck. The Cadillac has a nice, soft engine, nice instrumentation, pretty solid trunk- and even glove-compartment-space; but I wonder if it's a little conspicuous/tacky. Plus, they change the body design often enough that the car looks "old" fairly quickly. Hoping I can get a "Jeguwah" in the same $15-20k range once my note is paid off.

    Pros: Does just about everything I could ask of it. In comfort and style, too.

    Cons: My wife gets to drive it more than I do.

    2010 Black Toyota Corolla S

    Pros - Awesome gas mileage, sexy interior and stock ground affects, rims. Reliability and maintenance. And also I got a really sweet deal.

    Cons - The time clock is kind of hidden.

    I've only had this car for 2 months so I have not found too many cons yet.

    2008 Nissan 350Z.

    [​IMG]

    Pros- Very fast. Absolute fun to drive, especially around the corners in the hill country. She's gorgeous.

    Cons- Cops. Street racers. Very rough ride due to the excessive drop. Gas mileage is horrible due to all of the engine mods. Too expensive to mod. People park to damn close to me.

    2006 Jeep Wrangler.

    [​IMG]

    Pros- It's nice to be able to make it home from work in a flood. Don't really have to lock the doors as I'd rather they open it to steal something than slash the cover.

    Cons- Everything. Gas, tires, loud, gas, terrible ride. Dikes dig it.

    Guessing game....

    Very hard to find
    Seats 10 (not a typo) and plenty of room between seats and behind the last row...
    22-25 mpg
    Plenty of Torque
    Cost me 18K with 135K miles
    Can last anywhere between 300-500K
    Definitely a head turner everywhere I go..
    99% of the people who come up to me ask what is it...

    I've been searching for this thing for the past 2 years.... And finally found one about 2 months ago in Dallas...

    More hints:

    Yes it can be an RV if you convert it but it's not..
    Cost about 48K - 68K new and there is about a 10 month wait..
    And the biggest hint... It's usually re-badged when it hits the USA.

    2009 Nissan Altima hybrid

    Bought it used with just 14k miles so we saved a ton. New they are almost $30k. Gets great gas mileage of course, but has a lot of power, handles great, very comfortable.

    Con: Trunk is really, really small because of the batteries. Eh I use the other car for hauling around the dead bodies.

    2002 Toyota Corolla

    Pros: I don't really bother calculating MPG but $10 gives me half a tank and that lasts me all week. Drives great with 96k miles, decent acceleration, comfortable enough. ITS PAID OFF! :grin:

    Cons: Paint is peeling everywhere, interior is stained, has manual windows and locks. Extremely boring car even when new I bet. I just park it at a park and ride where I don't give a damn if someone hits it.
