    Nice :dribble:

    Only thing I d disagree about is the transmission options; it should always be manual (especially if its for personal use!)

    I bought the Passat 4 years ago & had it re-mapped shortly afterwards. I just bought the Porsche 6 months ago.

    Then 5fwd manual is nice, but would be hard for re-sale...

    That makes sense then ;)

    Probably true. Still, I can't help thinking that auto transmission is for lazy people who just consider driving purely as a means of transport i.e. getting from A to B. Auto kills all the fun :(

    The Mitsubishi is much closer to my liking than the particular Lexus...

    Some interesting facts there (as I am not really familiar with the particular car). What I am most curious about is this:

    Illuminated_Interior_Ford_Puma_1.7.jpg

    Does it really look like this at night? Looks like night vision just as being in a military vehicle :D

    I really like the scooby! My favourite Forester is the 2nd generation facelift. My favourite scooby has to be the Impreza. Managed to get hold of a test drive on the 2lt natural aspirated version of it. Although it is nothing compared to the STi/WRX, you still get some of that awesome driving sensation that only the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive can offer. Had it over the weekend and spend a lot of money on fuel (yes, it is hungry). Sorry if I was a bit carried away here; I am not a Subaru employee! It is just that it is that good :biggrin:

    No way I could persuade the sales man to test drive the STi or the WRX (which surprisingly was 'out of stock' here) :(

    p.s. guys, don't forget - post your own pictures if possible. This is what makes this topic livelier...

    Husqvarna is a quality brand indeed. And you need only the best tools to make a good car :D

    @ jayblok
    Only this pic does the Gremlin justice:

    Pay attention to the double-exhaust pipes! I still believe a set of semi-slicks would look good on this thing (...the car I mean) :D

    We love all cars on this thread - no exception (and no sarcasm!). The Gremlin is not the type of car that suits me; but I think it would look rather hot ride in the hands of ... a lady :drive1:

    Wonder if there is a convertible version of it ... oops, did it again :biggrin3:

    C'mon you should take this serious and not use public pics shot at the 1970s :p
    The car is cool, I like it.
    Your mom and dad in the downright corner? :D

    Lada's lack an R&D department but still, somehow, manage to make it to production now days. Yep, it's not a rare sight here either...

    70's given away from people's hairdo :renske:

    ... and what Jeremy likes to roll over into. This thing corners up-side-down always :eek:
