Bradley has told me before that its a mid 00s lexus ES300, AKA toyota camry. This is the best intel I have.

[QUOTE=FunnyStarRunner;45284347]Almost anything released nowadays. New cars are so freaking ugly.[/QUOTE] And unreliable
[QUOTE=insistent;45309554]And unreliable[/QUOTE] It's just a simple fact that the more parts you put into cars, the easier it is to break. That's why a super luxury brand like a Rolls would be absolutely dead after 50,000 miles of daily driving. And why brands like Audi and BMW have relatively bad reliability. Then you have boring, cheap cars like the low end Toyotas, Hondas, and several other brands. Excluding a few mechanical issues that can and do happen to any car, they will mechanically last quite a long time. More fun=shorter life. Kind of like real life.

The Miata. The Mustang. The Shelby Shadows. He'll, the Shelby anythings. A Lotus Elise/exige. Loads of fun cars are fun because they're dead simple. [editline]6th July 2014[/editline] Hell, even go with James May's idea. Any small car with a peppy engine and thin tires can be fun, as long as it has a personality and the steering isn't numb as fuck. Look at a Starlet or Focus or Fiesta.
Fun to drive, but can they massage your ass, while giving you high speed wifi, while entertaining 4 other people completely independently of each other, and feeling like you're riding on a cloud? Not at all.
How is separating and isolating people more fun? It's like those parents who go on road trips through Utah and Nevada and Northern California and Washington and Oregon but then put on the rear seat DVD players for their kids. How about look at the scenery, talk to each other, be social, not just do the exact same thing you do at home. Fine, you want ass massaging and riding on a cloud? Town car. Dead simple, late models had massage seats, and the ride is sublime. Yet still can be made into a pretty good road warrior. And the nice thing is, since it's American, all the systems are independent of each other. So if the massage seats break, you can still drive the car. Or if the suspensi on has a minor issue, it doesn't throw the ECU into a tizzy and force you to go in for a service ASAP.
any american car any european (excluding the UK and Germany) car any asian car
[QUOTE=axon;45314432]any american car any european (excluding the UK and Germany) car any asian car[/QUOTE] So basically you would only drive a Brazillian or Australian car?

[QUOTE=Ldesu;45317487]Brazil is technically in America Also he said "excluding UK and Germany"[/QUOTE] True... technically it is american. Does ford still own the rover brand? If so then its technically american, just like I consider Chrysler to be Italian now. [editline]7th July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Trekintosh;45313587]How is separating and isolating people more fun?

I rode in one where the tail light stopped working so the radio cut off and wouldn't play due to "tail light" and the airbag light turned on.

[QUOTE=Serj22;45318750]I don't think so. We have passats. But I do know someone is fornicating in that automobile.[/QUOTE] According to Wikipedia, it's only the first gen Passat that's called Dasher in USA. Later models are called Passat

They are tough cars that can be beaten to hell and expected to work though. Also as a side note, people who buy cars with DVD players and let their kids watch movies on road trips are are casting an injustice on to their children, especially the younger ones. Children need social interaction and exposure to the real world in order to make it in life. #NoDVDPlayerInMyCar #NoWiFiInMYCar
