you might be surprised

 

Im more of a Aston martin fan then a Ferrari guy. The vanquish is amazing, plus its British, so the reliability has to be there. (lol)

 

You'd have take turn the snob on and leave it on permanently to drive a ASStin martin. I personally like Porsche better than ferarri or astin. I just love the porsche styling and the boxer engines are really cool.

 

my best friend is a Pcar guy. has a 77 turbo carrera that he covets. in black too. DARTH VADER mobile,,,

it is a wonderful car, but i am a die hard ferrari guy. plus AM and the boys from stuggart dont race F1 which i am a huge fan of.

 

thats what people tell me when i say i drive a land rover

 

i was having this conversation on the phone with spike today about how my cousins all think i am a total snob because of my vehicles and that i golf all the time.

oh wait i kinda am,,,,,

 

1977 Jeep CJ-7 at 15. (Renegade w/ factory Levi's interior, 304 8 cyl., 3 spd man. converted to 400 turbo auto., 3 in. suspension lift on 33s. Parents bought new in '77 and Dad and I rebuilt from ground up. Took almost every dime I could make as quickly as I could make it.) - Still own.

1997 MX-5 in college. (Montego blue with tan leather and 5 spd. Adjustable autocross suspension with rolled wheelwells to fit all the tire I could.) - Still own.

2003 Buell XB-9S in college. (The yellow was appropriate as it seemed to be a lemon for me.)- Sold it as soon as all the repair work was completed.

2003 H-D VRSCA V-Rod. (100th anniversary model. This is my sanity when the world gets to me.) - Still have and hope to have until I am old and grey.

2006 Honda CBR-600RR. (Factory orange pearl w/ black tribal flames. It matched my orange and black leather Harley jacket. What can I say, I love orange.) - Sold last year.

1997 Toyota Camry. (Used as a daily driver. I'm a fool for selling it. Fantastic car - even w/ all the miles.) - Sold to purchase...

2002 Banatti Grey Disco II. (We have had a turbulant relationship, but then again it's British. Love it on the good days... can't sell it on the bad.) - Still in the driveway.

1997 Ford F-350. (4x2, Powerstroke, four door, 8 ft. bed. Was my work truck. Looks like a white train that I will probably part out.) - Taking up yard space.

I hope to be done buying vehicles for a while and just hold onto the ones I do have.

i'm still in college so my list isnt too long...

I had a 96 Honda(Acura) Integra which was a lot of fun, then I crashed it learning a lesson the hard way.

That was sophmore year of high school, got a really clean 89 RX-7 after that.

Started college in Vermont so the sports car had to go. Girlfriend was housesitting somebody's house and they had a Disco... kind of a crappy one, actually; a green automatic with no sunroofs or leather or anything fun. But i felt really cool driving it. So i decided I would get one. I seached high and low as i had determined i had to have a White D1 with a manual transmission, tan interior, sunroofs and 7-seats. Low and behold i found my perfect truck after months of searching.

Bought it around new years of 07... and have been enjoying it since! although I have definetly paid what i spent on it in repairs.

 

My first vehicle was a 1979 International Scout...

... About the only thing american that actually has *****....
