An extremely crappy 1995 Toyota "pickup".  You know, the little ones that are so tiny and embarassing that they don't even have a real car name?  Manual tranny, no power steering, no power anything.  My knees are up near my head when I drive it.  But I can fit a bike in the bed... so it kicks arse  8)

I did have a black '99 ZR2 Blazer which was really nice but it sucked up gas baaaaad.  I only got 15-20mpg out of that thing.   :o

I lost my job in the recent economic downturn and had to sell it.  I wasn't too broken up about it.  The fact it looked cool was being outweighed by rising gas prices, and that was before prices were above $2.00 per gallon.

Now I have a black 2004 Saturn Ion which gets 35mpg - yesssssss!   :thumb:

My wife and I switch off, but most of the time I end up with the 2006 Sonata 5spd, and she the 2005 Elantra 5spd, no auto's in this house :icon_mrgreen: She drives more miles, and we try to keep the Sonata miles for our long trips I am trying to keep them even for warranty and resale value, and between those sits my 96 gs :thumb:

A Citroën ZX 1.9 diesel.

Yeah a real european car in a european country, where the diesel is: €1,= per liter, so $4.60 per gallon.
That's the cheapest fuel, next to gas, petrol does $5.47 per gallon.  :mad:

So you're all just crying over nothing  ;)

Nice 7, looks sharp!  I had a '90 for 6 years (sold it to buy the GS) and an '83 before that.  I plan to get another 7 someday, just to play with.  They're fantastic cars.
[/threadjack]

Back on topic, the GS is my commuter and a VW Passat Wagon (1.8T, 5spd) is the family truckster.

This is the best looking sufire I've ever seen.  I always thought they were sooooooo ugly. (still do)  but I like the look of the front end.
actually looks decent.

Silver '01 Accord EX 5spd. The stealth mobile/winter car. I attract zero police attention. When the time comes to replace the shocks and springs I'll drop it a wee bit and put on more agressive wheels and tires. For now, it gets the job done.  Its accord #2, had a '90 for 4 years that I loved. This one is a bit porky, but still entertaining enough.

2003 Hyundai Tiburon

In the last 3 years i've had more problems with my Tiburon then the last 5 years with my Corolla. For an ugly old thing, the Corolla is indestructible. Both can be seen a bit behind my gleaming beautiful GS..............

I think I've finally got my '75 Chevy pickup sold, so unless I decide on spending the cash on an SV, I'll be stuck with the GS for another couple years till I get done with college.
