A year ago, my dad bought a Porsche 924S for 3,000 big ones. It's pretty cool beans, although it doesn't start anymore and it's an automatic.
[QUOTE=M_u_d;16491286]What brand was the truck that made it to 1,600,000 kilometers (1 million miles)?

[QUOTE=Glitchman;16494606][img]http://www.detailingbyexecutive.com/mycarisawesome.jpg[/img] this was my first car... Acura Integra Do the the massive amounts of aftermarket parts, the price to performance ration, and the fact that it's fun to drive, it has been called by some to be the best FWD call of all time. I really like the headlights, and the overall styling. Cars don't need to be super expensive/fast/futuristic to be amazing! <3[/QUOTE] They look best stock. (And you don't destroy your front bumber on curbs or wheel stops.) What's done to the engine? Because stock, 170hp... Only 128lb/f torque.
I loved the integra, until I found out it was FWD

I've never ran into insurance problems when hopping things up. When you put a body kit on a car and leave it stock, that's pretty much the definition of rice.

That is what happens with your insurance in the UK, alright? I don't know about insurance in America, and I don't really care.
Hey guys. I'm going on a session with some Corvettes and a Ferrari in a couple of hours. I'll post the pictures later.

[QUOTE=DrMortician;16496584]Is that every 6 months or what?[/QUOTE] No, every year. I'm english, it's in pounds.
[QUOTE=joe588;16496596]No, every year. I'm english, it's in pounds.[/QUOTE] Yea, well that's pretty reasonable then. I pay $84 monthly for full coverage.

Just got home from the session. Here's a pic of my car next to the 360 Modena, lol. It's not really fast, but it had the Capristo exhaust, and oh dear god. THE SOUND PEOPLE! THE SOUND!!!!!!!!!! [IMG]http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c289/Ferosso/IMG_1269.jpg[/IMG]
Lol, awesome.

Are you trying to tell us your poor or something?
[QUOTE=plokoon9619;16502195]Why do you always take pictures of your crappy car next to good cars? Are you trying to tell us your poor or something?[/QUOTE] Nope. I "collect" them. I know my car is a piece of junk, so I think it's funny to take pics of nice cars next to my ugly car.
Saw this today as I was on the bus. [img]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a202/schrollbach/0805091447a.jpg[/img] YES IT IS A CONVERTIBLE HONDA ACCORD.
Found some nice RX-8's for under £10k. Pretty cool as it's my dream car now, I'd like to do some performance upgrades on it and stuff.
I did see a mclaren f1 driving by on the highway once. Unfortunatly it was going in the opposite direction and had no time for pics =(. The funny thing is though, I live in Iowa! Who sees nice cars in Iowa? [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/13/McLaren_F1_GTR_95_P440_CPJ_Ritz.jpg[/img]
I will get this car if I suddenly find myself suprised by a shitload of money: Rolls Royce Phantom: [img]http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/1508/rollsroycephantomtungst.jpg[/img] Currently I drive this: Mercedes 200D [img]http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/706/mercedes200dfront.jpg[/img] Fukkin' classy. I like retro cars, it's from the late eighties. The motor sounds like a tractor because it's a four cylinder diesel.

[QUOTE=SwizzChees;16453144]I just adore this car: [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/36/Morris_Mini-Minor_1959.jpg[/img] One day that car belongs to me![/QUOTE] What's so good about it?
The only thing bad about it is that is has basically no boot.
