QuoteHopefully this will make you feel better.....mine's not an M! I got the image from Yahoo images and didn't notice the M part.

Mine's a 3.0 litre Coupe, nice and fast but not THAT fast!

What's a Cayman?

The Cayman is a Porsche.   I test drove the 3.0 litre Coupe and yes, it's still a BLAST!
I'm digging, digging deep in myself, but who needs a shovel when you have a little boy like mine.

I really love driving my car, but this is my favorite set of wheels.  A 2008 Specialized Stumpjumper Pro.  She only has a few hundred miles on her, but the MPGs are off the charts.

Looks great, but where's the seat?  I do believe I would need a bit more support in that region.  Beats my Trek, which now serves as a wall decoration in the garage.  
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

The stock seat is not exactly comfy, but padded shorts help.  Yank that beast off of the garage wall and hit the trails!

Ruckus

2004 Hyundai Elantra - so far no problems with it after 100,000 miles of hard pizza delivery.  I got it on Ebay as a recovered stolen vehicle with only 6000 miles on it.  The insurance settlement I got on my totaled 98 Toyota Corolla with 120,000 miles actually covered almost the entire cost of the the almost new vehicle. ;D

You should see how that compares to my early '80s Nashbar Terra XT!  ;)

The website simply says Shelby Mustang.  I was able to post the image here and it appeared in the above post, as well.  Not sure if it was my doing or what.

Oh I'll never say I knew you, but my heart can't wait to meet you on the other side

I've got two cars right now, which is kinda ridiculous considering the amount of money I (don't) have.  I don't have pictures of my actual cars here at work, but I'll find some pics that are close representations.

1998 Lincoln Continental



Got a really good deal on this one.  Bought it in 2004 with about 100,000 miles on it.  Despite the high miles, the car was in literally like-new condition.  It was driven by an older couple, almost all highway miles since it was new.  I got a $40,000 new car for $4,000.  Heated leather.  6 disc changer.  premium stereo.  it had all the options.  great highway cruiser.  as much as i like this car, I'm ready for something sportier.  My next daily driver might be a:

Mazda RX-8



My other current car is a 1969 Pontiac Firebird.  It looks almost exactly like this one, except without the rear spoiler and my wheels aren't as nice:


It's got a 455 with Edelbrock carb and Performer RPM intake, aftermarket cam, headers, K&N filter, aftermarket plug wires, distributor recurve kit.  The engine itself has forged H-beam rods, forged pistons, new crank.  It's a fairly mild 455, with only about 350-375hp (estimated), but around 480 lb-ft of torque.  It gets off the line in a hurry.  It did have a 4.10 rear end, but now it has a 3.55 for better highway driving.  With all the torque I really don't need the 4.10.  It has a TH400 transmission.  Someday I want some new cylinder heads and a bigger carb and cam, which should get me up around 550hp.
We could.

That's my boy...If I had the money I'd buy the best eco car I could, however Eleanor and this 1967 Shelby Cobra Roadster would probably get a fair shake.
