I thought we could share what cars we have and talk about cars in general in this thread. Mine: 2007 Audi A4 2.0T Quattro Tiptronic w/65,800 miles  I picked it up on July 3, 2012 with 49,000 miles on it at the time and love it. I drove up to Carena Motors from Columbus to get it, about a 2-hour trip. That trip back home was awesome. My first drive with it was 2 hours. Lately, I've been getting an itch for a newer Audi, but I can't really justify spending more money on another car this soon after getting my current one. Anyway, share what you drive and let's talk about cars.

Nothing wrong with that. I used to have a 2002 GMC Sierra and really enjoyed it. In the winter, I felt invincible in that thing.

I love my truck. I especially love the whole not having a car payment thing.

I have a 2000 Olds Silhouette minivan.
Leather, heated seats, TV in the back, all the goodies, and it doesn't hurt my back when I drive.

2013 BMW 328i coupe  i order it oct 2012 in mannheim. i got it nov 2012, and shipped it jan 2013 to ft. sill, oklahoma, where i'm currently stationed. i got to watch it get built in Munich. they put the plates on for me and everything. i got it with 1.5 miles on it. i now have 28k and some change. i've been riding. the EU is mostly open border, so that weekend, my wife let(more like granted) me to go on a trip that weekend. i drove to slovakia, then down to switzerland, up to the netherlands, and back into germany starting thursday night. before i shipped it, i already put 7800 miles on it. i'm a BMW guy. i mean i wanted the audi A5, but most of the stuff i had to pay for the options, came standard on the BMW.

I drive a 2000 GMC Sierra, 2 w.d. regular cab, 196,000 miles. Wife drives a 2006 Hummer H3, 102,000 miles. We're a boring car family.
My brothers, on the other hand - well, they're different. But, they're my brothers - not me.
I have an uncle that has more corvettes in his possession now than I've had cars in my life - plus his BMW's, (plural), Mercedes, Jeep, Camaro, Mustang.......aah, more than I can list.
Know what? My truck gets me where I'm going.

I like it better,275,000 miles,alot of fond memories,and still has some of the stains I left there in the back seat.
BTW,that BMW is beautiful.
Indecision may,or maynot,be my problem

I've got a 2004 Mercedes CLK 500 that I drive in the summer. Absolute blast to drive that car. 2008 Silverado 2500 that I drive regularly.
My wife drives a 2012 Lexus RX 350. Great vehicle, has all the options. Good for hauling our 5 and 6 year old sons around too!

My wife drives a 2010 GMC Terrain, I drive Demo' so my ride changes all the time. When it's above 50 degrees and I don't have to work I am on my motorcycle.
I AM ALWAYS RIGHT... except when I am wrong.

Ha ha - ditto with a 2003 Kia Spectra, low gas mileage is all I'm concerned about. Although I will be looking at a truck next, I get tired of asking for favors from people with trucks.

 My sweet ride. I used to have a saturn before moving to thailand, selling it was worth leaving the country, worst vehicle ever...but it was green, it ran entirely on women's disdain and sexual frustration. Favorite car is probably a Subaru WRX. I really like my dad's 97 Saab 9000, might buy it off him if the thing is still running when I get back to the states, speedy hatchbacks are awesome.

Just traded in my 2004 WRX for a brand new 2014 Honda CR-V for my wife last weekend. Now I'm driving her old 2003 CR-V. I have a <2 mile commute to work so I don't really care what I drive at this point in time.
