I'm a car man. We've got a music thread and an every day carry thread, so I thought, "Why not show off our pimp rides?"

Pictures are optimal, but a quick description is ok too. I don't see any rules that say otherwise, so I'm going to assume from this thread that posting images is alright(just keep it reasonable). Do you like your car? What's the gas mileage like? If you're into modding, anything you want to do to it? Have a "Dream Car?"

my car:

'85 Chevrolet Camaro. 305 V8, swapping in a 350 either this summer or next, depending on my college funds (I own the engine, but can't afford to hop it up at the moment.) I love my car!

I get about 18MPG, which isn't great, but could be worse. More pictures linked below if you're interested.

So, Edge Gamers.... What are YOU driving?

EDIT: also, in before lulz i see ur license plate
 
2008 Honda Civic EX coupe - royal blue. Nothing done to it other than window tint and a K&N SRI intake. Was going to do exhaust on it but 1)dropping $600 on catback with the economy going to hell ain't a good idea and 2)modding the R18A1 engine is pretty much pointless. Really hard to get power gains. I only did the SRI to get 3-5 mpg better. ($4 a gallon, that helps!).

2007 Harley Davidson VRSCD Vrod Night Rod - Black. LOTS of stuff done so I'll just post my gallery on the vrod forum I go to:

Hopefully real soon when we finish it I'll crusing around in a '34 three window coupe. Have some pics online but they are a few months old so it would be pointless to post.

that's a pretty bike.
 
And now that you're all sufficiently confused/speechless, the car I REALLY drive, like on a regular basis: '97 Ford Escort SE

dont have pics but i drive a Chevy S10 2001, four cylinder, manual transmission, 29 MPG, nothing fancy just an old beater that has 290,487 Miles on it (no joke) brand new heads, transmission, tires. and everything else you could name. oh wait went thru 4 alternators, and two fuel pumps. but when you drive it like me no wonder it has had so many probs *cough dont drag a four cylinder cough*
 
At the moment I am driving a '95 Plymouth Grand Voyager. 197,000 miles. Refurbished tranny.

Its a maroon red with white pinstripes. Its missing all the decals (except for the dealer decal...wonder why?) its been dented and dinged and the air conditioning doesn't work. The electric locks don't work, the auto rear windows don't work half the time. The captains chairs (all four of them) are worn out and squeaky, but it gets 21 mpg on a 3.3 L V6.

In the past 13 years (come July 4th) the only thing we had to do to the engine was replace the water pump.
 
I'm driving a 1990 Nissan 240sx. By this time next year, it will be RHD with the s13 front end. Pictures will be available starting mid July once the stuff starts rolling in. Oh, and for those of you who care about it, I'll also have the Kouki tail lights :x

What's that in your avatar, MrQ? Looks like a classic.

Its actually my dad's car, but I drive in it a lot. Its a Toyota Corolla Verso D-Cat.
It goes from 0-100 in 8.8 seconds and the top speed is 127.4 mph.
We have to get diesel twice a week :/
Ooh well I love it
 
At this very moment I don't have a picture of my car... (And I wonder why!).. Anyway, I drive a '04 SEAT Cordoba, 2.0L. It makes 0-60 mph in 9.6 seconds, 130 mph top speed (Accroding to the manufacturer it shoudl be 127mph but I make it to 130). Only has the window tint and a Borla exhaust muffler. And for me, is the best car that I ever had until this day... :)
 
97 mazda protege... 236,000 miles, manual transmission, and rockin' a 4cyl 1.5L BABY!! WOO THE POWER!

on the flip side, I do get 36MPG city :-)

used to hate that thing, but hey, with gas almost at 3.50 here in Oklahoma City, I'll take what I can get. Especially when I only have to gas up 3x in a month!
 
Ninja, I fill my gas tank approximately once every 3 weeks now. I don't drive really that much at all..
 
I dont have anything to get too excited about

2007 Ford Expedition "Wife drives it"
2003 Toyota Camry SE "Paid off OHHH YA"
