Since this place is all about cars, why not post our own?

So here's mine:

Year: 1997
Make: Ford
Model: F150 XL
Mileage: 251,885

This is a pretty good picture considering the amount of rust on it since... I can almost hear it rusting outside

(yes I realise it contradicts my avatar picture, but I do like both trucks)

Nice truck alright here's mine.

Year: 2007
Make: Aston Martin
Model: DBS
Mileage: 2.093
Before you ask I did buy this car. For £159,043. I know the price was steep. But it was well worth it! Anyone else gonna post their car?

hey man dont sweat i get it all the time like "Can i buy it off you for £5" or "Can you give me lift?" I get annoyed coz they do it everyday. BTW the pic was taken in France but obviously by the numberplate i bought it in the UK.

Cool truck, franksie!

Well, I don't think there will be many more entries after the Aston Kris posted, ROFL!

No, really, considering that most members here are under the 12-19 age bracket, not many have a car to show yet, and even those who do may not be willing to show the not so nice ride they own at the present (my opinion).

Anyway, as I'm out of that age bracket, here's my daily driver: it's a 2005 VW Gol City totalflex - meaning it runs either on gas or ethanol, or any mix between these two fuels, I run on pure ethanol all the time not only because I'm environmentaly conscious but because it's cheaper in my country as well (40% off gas prices)

Well, my last car died, I needed about 15K dollars just to fix it, so I gave it to Autoway for about 2.5K which was a good deal

It was a 1992 Buick Skylark Custom Sedan

I don't have any pics of it, since I didn't have it for more than 5 months

The Sonett III (or any Sonett, btw) is a very unique and interesting car.

And considering you didn't post any pic of it, here are some images so people can have an idea of how your ride looks like - or will, after the restoration.

This is Subaru Impreza STi(USA 2004) driven only 3500miles! 2.5Liter engine with DccD,300hp stock VF39 turbo and 4.5" exhaust on the car now (H)

You don't have to own anything to earn a "credential" as a car lover!

People (like myself) don't have to own a Boeing 747 or a Dassault Rafale to be airplane enthusiasts, so why does the auto lover have to own an awesome ride in order to be a fan?

I'm a car freak (I think you all already noticed that) but I don't own a dream car, so what?

I wish ethanol was cheaper here... its about the same. Though I'm thinking I'll go with the flex-fuel option on my next one (maybe in 5 or 6 years). The plan is to run this one up to 500,000.... shouldn't be too hard... as long as the clutch holds out for a while I'll be ok, it's a royal pain in the arse to replace in these things. I'm likely to buy a new F-150, but I'm disappointed you can no longer get the standard transmission unless you go with the base model, which I don't want.

Something like this I think

I bet the Gol would be a good seller if they sold them up here. we have the previous generation of the Golf and Jetta marketed as the cheapest VW's.
