Also have a '13 MB C250 coupe, 2004 land rover disco, and a 2001 C5 corvette

Long haul... It was great at 550 hp to the crank...Now it's better at 730 to the wheels
Love my horsepower......

My favorite car was a 2000 subaru outback.
Now that I live down south I drive a 2008 Mazda 3 sport which is surprisingly zippy and fuel efficient.
If Subaru were to make an AWD hybrid I'd be in heaven.

funny how a tiny little motor, only 600cc pushes 130hp(with some mods) smokes a 400hp vette bwahahahahLong haul... It was great at 550 hp to the crank...Now it's better at 730 to the wheels
of course 130 hp is only pushing 525lbs including me.
Daily driver and dog hauler is the Audi Q7 (hence the quatro name). For fun use an R1, a KX250 and a Challenger 1800
When there is need for real speed (the R1 on the left)
This is more fun than a barrel of monkeys
Cant find a C1800 pic! will check and post, it is serious fun too

2010 Dodge Charger is my daily driver and in the spring/summer months we try to take the 1990 Mustang GT 5.0 convertible out as much as possible....and we also have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee just in case we need it in the winter.
One of these. I traded my 98 Dodge Ram with 165,000 miles on it a few weeks ago.
'11 Mustang... It's a V6, but gallops at a nice 305hp. dual flowmasters K&N filter.
305hp and 31mpg on the hwy, when I'm gentle with her....

2012 Toyota Tacoma named Tommy. My baby. Just spent all last weekend washing, claying, and waxing him. It's a bit of an obsession for me.
Mono, my parents had a Guilietta in the 70s. Your pictures prove they're still beautiful cars!
Quatro, my husband has an A5, he just bought it last month and loves it. He looked for one for over a year (long story, it's used and had to be perfect) and talked about it so much that for awhile I banned the words "Audi" and "A5" from our house. So, he went out and bought one and didn't tell me until it showed up on a tow truck in our driveway. Now I wish I would have banned the words "Porsche" and "911" from our house. (Born and raised a Porsche girl, this Audi thing is new to me.)

(Born and raised a Porsche girl, this Audi thing is new to me.)Got rid of all my Dodge Diesels which i had a 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 extended cab 24 Valve Cummins Turbo Diesel, and my 2004 3500 Quad Cab Dodge Ram 24 Valve HO Turbo Diesel Dually, both were seriously Upgraded, but couldn't pass a gas station, so i got a 2012 Scion TC, with all the fixings. Used to drive Tractor Trailers till my accident and health issues, no longer allowed to Drive my Class A loves... Miss traveling around seeing the world..
I loved my 300+ HP 1990 Eagle Talon AWD TSI - drop the clutch at 4500 without a chirp - Made in Normal, Il
Now I drive a 2008 Chevy HHR SS with the GMPP turbo upgrade 290/310
I bought it off the floor in '09 with 180 miles on it, put 35K just drivin around in the first year, now it has 92K
Basically just change the oil and fill with 93oc - 30+ MPG highway - stable @ 130mph
Gotta love the Ecotec motor - World's fastest four-cylinder sets a new quarter-mile record in Quebec
last payment due this month yay!
We love the twisties on Dragon129 and she brought me to 125+ wooden covered bridges in '09-'11

As I break in my Dodge Ram Quad Cab I'm finding that gas mileage is better than I expected. I originally was looking to get the V6 with the 8 speed transmission for 17 and 25 mpg. At the end of the model year it was hard to find one with the goodies I wanted, so I decided to look at Hemi Big Horns (14 and 20 mpg). I bought one and have been breaking it in and watching the real time MPG readings on the Evic display. Around town, I'm averaging 14.5 mpg after driving 650 miles with 395hp and 407 foot pounds of torque. Easing down on the accelerator reminds me a lot of my old 67 Olds 442. It makes the seat back compress nicely without even flooring the accelerator.
The 442 hated to pass a gas station and had to have hi-test gas. This one is much nicer as well! It's a fun and comfortable truck to drive and it has nice tunes with an 8" touch screen display for entertainment. No CD player, but I have about 12 CD's ripped at 192bps onto a 4GB SD card and they sound nice. The SD card is only about 1/4 full. I don't miss the CD player.
