/cgl/ - Auto

Porsche Boxer

New York Subway

Depends on whats working.
Most recently, a '94 Cavalier. Before that, an '02 Grand Caravan.
When neither of those are working, I get to share my moms Dodge Magnum.
Preferably, I would take the Magnum to conventions all the time. Even though it eats more gas than the other two, its more reliable and the get-up-n-go is fucking awesome. Driving it is just too fun.

Is that a poor man's Boxster?

The Bonneville was an old family car pawned off onto me that I drove in high school and like, two years after.

Then my mom surprised me with the Sunfire. I drove it for a while, then she dropped the news on me one day that I had to take over the payments on it, or else she was getting rid of it.

that is when I downgraded to the Taurus. Honestly, it was a good idea, because the Sunfire was a death trap in the winter and would get really bad traction on roads. I sure miss the Sunfire though. It was pretty. ;___;

2006 Toyota Corolla LE. Dubbed "Outlaw Star"

sometimes wish i wanted to cosplay as Ken again.

Depends on which car isn't already being used.

This is my car
A white 96 suzuki sidekick.
His names pollo

A old 1988 Toyota Corolla but I recently fixed up a project bike of mine for my 15 mile commute.

You can check it out here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4SSdrwiQAM&feature=related

In the works of dropping a 6000+ lumen dual D2S HID up front in 6500k temp for night riding on some trails.

2001 volkswagen beetle

lime green

His name is Crayola because he smells like crayons on the inside. I swear, car came smelling like crayons. I don't smell it anymore, but people who aren't in my car often will ask why it smells like crayons.

2005 Nissan Altima

>>2307299

... I love you

>>2307299
If I could make armor, I'd have that costume done in a heartbeat. D:

Nissan. Not relevant to cosplay.

>>2307269
47mph stable on a bicycle? Shit that's 75kph that crazy guy don't your tires heat out or something?

1987 Nissan 300zx
2x2 non-turbo.

I get driven.

...in a public transportation bus. :(

2006 Suzuki Aerio

when not in cosplay I take the subway, when in...I'll call a taxi or bum a ride, don't want to get shot, stabbed or approached by hobos.

1990 Mazda Miata

>>2307353
No way. That was my favorite car as a kid. First one I saw that I ever really liked. I never remembered what it was exactly until recently...saw a white one with heavily tinted windows at the garage at my college.
I wish they weren't so rare...and hard to maintain...or I would have one.

The only cosplay related pic of my car

I love my car, but she's been sick recently.

>>2307351
I have good disc brakes on the front and rear of my bike. I swapped out my stock brakes for Shimano Deore XT Disc Brake BR-M775 Pre Bled which cost me $300 and a bottle of mineral for tune ups later on my brakes.

Not anymore then a cars tires would. Because I use disc brakes I'm not heating the rims up. I've not really done any high speed downhilling with the bike but I estimate possible 60+ mph on long downhill circuits but I don't plan on going that fast. Fastest I've gone on the bike is 47.5mph on flat lands.

>>2307435
'mineral oil' because they are hydrolic brakes and considered some of the best brakes on the market.

>>2307387
I have cosplay related pics of my car as well.

I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS!!!!!!!

>>2307452
awesome

I drive a Toyota Camry 2007 model, in teal/greenish color. I've been seeing a lot of the same kind of car as mine around too. Recently I was parked near a car exactly like mine, but mine looked like trash compared to the other one :\ My mom got rear ended the other day when she drove it, and I've got scratches in the front bumper and right passenger side D: I also haven't washed it in a year or so... :\
I love my car but goddamnit I'm so lazy D: And it's getting cold where I live...I probably won't be washing it till when it warms up again.

1989 Toyota Corolla DX... it's my third one.

It's stick shift, and I know how to fix it.
I just wish I had the money for a new carburetor and clutch... and paint...

Pic is of my old one since it looks better and I miss it ;_;

1970 Standard Beetle. Savanna Beige. Savanna for short.

preparing to buy my first car of my very own.

Don't have a big price range though. shooting for a Honda or Toyota compact or sedan. WISH ME LUCK, /cgl/, DOING MORE LOOKING TOMORROW MORNING!

>>2307483
Nice. My 1988 is sitting at 243k right now and I don't drive it as much since I've switched over to my bike. Partly the jam ups over here and I can skirt the james on the road or sidewalks then being stuck for like 15-20mins in traffic for a 30min commute.

>>2307137
The sunfires nice looking but in the winter I didn't find any problem with it with stock tires. Then again I do drive slow in thw winter time. I find the idiots that fly by often are the ones that end up in some accident or near accident like skidding at the lights and skating across the lights slamming thier brakes. I don't see what the rush is about. You're in a car and are more manuverable then a bus and faster then a bus but why go speeding around in the winter? Gezz.. reminds me of the ass clown that passed me on a blizzard night going at least 100 if not 110kph on the highway when it was 80% almost white out conditions seeing a few meters ahead of you and everyone else was going ~60kph on the 100kph limit highway right behind each other so they can see the tire tracks and this ass clown flew by. I found out 20 mins later that car that passed ended up flipped on it's hood off a guard rail from a on ramp enterance. Later on at night the news reported the witnesses saying the guy pretty much did a pong game on the guard rails fighting for control of the car banging from soulder rail guard to passing lane guard rail in a zig zag before slamming a rail and barrel rolling and skidding on it's roof. Guy's lucky he god out alive just shaken up with what I remember hearing was bruises but cops and witnesses clearly said the ass clown was driving too fast for the conditions.

Probably buying a BMW 328IS E36 and by Anime North i'll drop a supercharger into it.

My only regret is that I can't afford a GTR so I can cosplay Initial D :(

Main beater: 2008 Scion xD
Weekend rider / back up ride: Anime Central's 2008 Toyota Tacoma x-Runner... >.>

>>2307499
Got love for those.

I typically drive a 03 VW GT 1.8t. its timing belt broke and bent the valves and possibly screwed up one of the pistons.

I drive my dad's 96 supercharged previa.

But I'd have Nia all over it instead of this.

>>2308106
Did you do anything to it yet?

I'd want one just to make it a project car.

The SHO is you triple nigger

92' Miata.

actually really when there's ice you're pretty much gonna slide and skit no matter what. I was going to work one day on a REALLY bad day and well..lets just say I was at a red light, I was going 5 miles a hour on a 30 mile a hour road and my car was drifting to the side. Like it was start out like this. | and end up like /. I moved forward a tad to straighten out and it got more like ---. I wasn't even going fast at all and it happened.

1998 A red Nissan Pathfinder. I call it the Outlaw Star.

>>2309343
>>2307142
Two cars named the same. :|

'95 red Chrysler Lebaron. My dad's gay friends sold it to us, and he told me I could keep the CD's in the changer in the trunk. It was like, four Depeche Mode CD's and some ones he must have burned himself. I kinda lol'd on the inside.

>>2308728

HAKUNA MIATA!

'99 Toyota Corolla. Bought in '03 with 23k on it, got 162k on it now and still running great. Here's to 250k, barring anything catastrophic.

If eunos what you are looking at, you are now raging with car geek jealousy.

If not, you see a somewhat unfamiliar boringish grey coupe...

yes indeedy daily driver

'98 Grand Am.

>>2307307
These might actually be a possibility once I get my vac table finished. I just need a viable way of making the wheels motorized. I was thinking cordless drills.
