    '73 corvette stingray. It just sits and sits. Haven't drove it since gas was $2.25 a gallon. (bought it when gas was .89 cents) Haven't started it since gas went over $4.00.
    I just ride...rain or shine.

    Wow so many nice and interesting rides!

    My cages. They get used on rainy days and when I need to haul stuff, and for mucking it through the Buffalo winters with the AWD. Definitely not fancy or fast cars but used soobs are cheap and last a long time. If you like subaru's, check out www.ultimatesubaru.org and Subaru Outback.org

    I just realized I don't really have one that's mine. Well, I guess the F350 is but I usually drive it once a month just to change parking places. If I'm going alone, it's the VFR or I borrow my bro in laws POS Daewoo. It's great, it's blue with black primer and dents already in it. Stick shift, probably gets over 30mpg and I don't have to worry about tearing it up cause it's only one step from a junker. Last car he had he drove until he couldn't pass smog anymore so we sold it for $200 for a guy to use in a crash up derby...

    My dad swears he can fix the first one.

    The second is my truck I used to get to where the first one is.

    The third is my toy. A current work in progress.

    I lived in Apple Valley for 10 years and have been going up there since the 60's so you get to know the sage brush :)

    E90 BMW 330XI - premium, sports, winter packages. Four on the floor (oops, rather six on the floor). Black on black - sorry no pics but looks pretty much the same as Franko's except for the smokin' M6 rims!

    Hey Slo:

    I love the motorcycle muffler sticking out of the Mustang's window.

    Using a classic car for garage storage...priceless:tongue:

    Some very nice wheels posted there, fellas.

    Me:

    2004 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Edition. Put 30K miles on it in the first 18 months. Now that its 4 years old, has a total of 45K. Only used to tow the boat. Sweet deal when I can tow the boat and get 8mpg, then start the boat and get 1.4mpg. Yay!
    2006 Acord V6 EX. Mostly the wife's.
    2004 Civic. Commuter when not on the VFR.

    Most recent addition is a 6hp go cart. LOL. Top speed of about 32, but gets about 50mpg.

    Big3 gets my vote for best vanity plate.

    My cage. An 05 Toyota Sienna. Man I hate driving that thing but it is good for hauling the family camping etc. Drives like a piece of jello but .... My wife gets to drive a Mercedes C230 Kompressor, now that car I like to drive, its a blast.

    I like having something that is a little away from the mainstream... A World Rally Blue WRX wagon stands out to a cop like a sore thumb - I don't get a second look in my Saab. The VFR is kind of the same thing - everyone thinks it's a "zing-zing" sportbike until I start it, and then the questions begin!!!

    My plans will eventually put me at Stage 1 - I already am running an STi axle back. STi Pink wagon springs will drop it a little bit too. I don't know if my wife will be happy with needing 91-93 octane all the time...

    The LGT wheels I have on it now were a $200 craigslist find with good rubber. They look pretty nice for OE wheels, yes?

    I love the fact that I can use any WRX hop up part available on my "Saab".:tongue:

    I have on '03 Dodge Ram. It doesn't move much now that the weather has gotten better. I just turned it over to 47,000 miles this weekend.

    Go figure...it's also a Honda

    Last summer I traded my 2005 Mustang GT, (great car, but to expensive to run as a daily driver) for a 2007 Civic Si. Yep...has the dreaded V-Tec no less!

    I gotta say, this car is just plain old FUN!!! 2 liter screamer, 197 hp, 8k red line, v-tec kicks in at 5900 rpms, handles fantastic, great breaks...and fine ergos as well. All while getting mid 20's mpg around town and mid 30's on the hwy.

    I'd say it's one the best sporty buys around for the price. And we all know about Honda reliabilty.

    I miss the 300 ponies of the stang, until I hit 5900 K and that sound comes along with a nice kick in the pants. Makes me grin like a goof. The only down side is all the fart-can kids in imports that wanna try this old man for combat. Hey,sometimes I give 'em a lil' show...all with in reason of course, and the radar detector on....:wink:

    The wife has a '98 Toyota Avalon, and I have a '02 Chevy Avalanche that I use to haul my bike to track days, and if I' going with some friends it tows my trailer. I'll post pics in my gallery one of these days. Unfortunately it says that I have exceeded my attachment limit somehow...Even with gas prices the way they are, I still love my Avalanche, and even drove it to Paris last weekend, now that was FUN!!!!!

    and the one next to it is my "get me through LA as quickly as possible" vehicle
