I had a 1.8 V6 in the past. Rather have that in the Miata to tell the truth.

Gee, I didn't know we were counting mommy and daddy's cars, too. ;)

Two more V6s for me, then.

:huh: It's not like any one individual here owns ten fucking cars.  Might as well use my "votes." :huh:

I only voted for one I4, but the fambone only has one V6 in it right now.
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

Can someone vote V10 diesel, since Trep had a Touareg V10 TDI?

Sweet car.  :wub:

If they are ever interested in replacing it with a Grand Marquis from the '70s let me know!  :praise:

That basically is a 70s Grand Marquis.  Just an updated body and interior.
