Cars and other kinds of motoring gibberish

The size will take some getting used to. I've only ever driven big vehicles: Toyota Highlander, Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Toyoto Sienna, etc. etc.

It'll be a bit snug if you use your car to carpool. :sweat:

Though (U.S.) statistics have shown that more times than not, a single person is in a vehicle on the road...

LOL, I TOTALLY missed that one... A blown opportunity. :hehe:

I didn't think you'd want me to talk about you in such a public forum.

Ahh, I can see 'em now. :victory:

Hamilton has pole for Hungary tomorrow. Kimi is 6th and I read this post on one of the racing forums:

What in the world is wrong with Kimi?!
He needs to get back to what worked for him in the past: hard liquor and strippers!

Never give up a winning formula. :hehe:

Honda makes them as well.

Ever consider a Mini? :)

I think that'll be the next car I buy, unless BMW cuts the prices of their cars which is highly unlikely... Besides, BMW owns Mini anyways. :victory:

(and unless BMW starts making remotely attractive cars again - I can't believe the new 7 series.. same as the rest - ew. Too bad.. all the previous years were so much more attractive, 'cept maybe the Z4 over the Z3 - Z4's a pretty nice looking car) The Mini's a pretty attractive option.

I saw the new A4 though and it's pretty sweet lookin. And that new 2.0 TFSI is a solid engine. I'd seriously consider a Cooper S though - they are really nice!

My dad said he'll go with me for test drives once I've narrowed my choices down. I'll add the Mini to the list.

I'm looking at the Toyota Solara right. It's a pretty hot car.

Not the Solara!! There are so many better choices! Mazda 3. GTI. Hell, Altima Coupe. Totally check out the Mini. I'd at least check out the new Saturn Astra (if they have it in Canada)

It's not the styling that's turning me off, it's the prices: the 3-Series has steadily gone upscale and luxo-coupe and BMW has forgotten that the 3 is their bread and butter... The 1-Series is closer to a raw driver's car, but with a base price only a couple thousand less that the 3 is ridiculous. :shakehead:

It's VERY unlikely I'll buy another BMW at those prices... Looks like an era is coming to an end for me. :puppydog:

The recent styling of the Audis is even worse: that large, hideous gaping maw they call a grille makes me wanna wretch every time I see it. :bleh:

I'll agree about the grille, it's a styling decision I don't agree with, but I still think the A5 (specifically this one) and A6 are some of my favorite designs on the road under 100k.

Though, when I think about it, there aren't a lot of cars whose front grille I like. I like the G35 coupe's, the Corvette's and a bunch from the 100k plus club (Aston, Ferrari, some of the Maserati). There are actually a number of the American cars which have nice front ends, IMO.. not so many of the Japanese or Germans.

My cousin was saying the Altima is a lot like the inifiniti, so I've been checking the Nissan site. Never thought of a Nissan car before.
