Thx for the compliments, I actually have a guy interested in buying it, here's a video 'walkaround' I put together.




The new Dodge 300 is also a mixture of the original 1960 Dodge 300, I noticed. I knew that grille rang a bell.





GOD that's cool. They'll bring back fins soon. Hopefully they'll bring back the instrument cluster, too.

Nate, if I DO part with it, this is what will be replacing it, The 1960 Imperial Crown:






Preferrably BLACK, with BLACK tinted windows.

I really don't like a lot of the Cadillacs, pre-1947 and post 1963. ESPECIALLY post 1974, like the one you posted with the red interior.

Please hand me my noose.

THANK YOU. "CADILLAC" ON A CHEVY TAHOE CHASSIS.

Though, some black dudes and drug lordz might disagree with us, they like this pimpin' spinnin' gold rims to roll on their Escalade.

XLRV is another pile of tat from Caddy.

CTS-V has an interesting design, he's pretty hulky. I see a lot of those driving around so they're at least popular, wouldn't own one though personally.

If I could buy a new car, I'd probably go with the Honda Element. I sat in one of these at the dealership the other day (I ended up with the Forester) and my first thought was "Wow, suddenly it's 2011." I felt like I time traveled... to the present.

The bad boy has suicide-doors on it.

I love American cars despite their many stupid features and poor build quality. I suppose its the engines and looks of the cars that draws me to them. Sadly american imports are rare in the UK and the only ones sold here are Chryslers (Jeep and Dodge as well) and even then they don't sell the interesting cars apart from the 300C and Grand Cherokee in the SRT8 trim.

Hyundai Coupe


Daewoo Matiz

yes i can see over the steering wheel im almost 2 meters tall ,as for the car it is quite powerfull,it can start quite fast and as for other things,you can steer it with no problem,especially when old grannies pop out of nowhere if they step on the road when its red light to them(yes they love to do that).The brakes are also good,as for the car is 20 years old it breaks like a brand new one

I don't have a car, much to my dissapointment. If I do get one, it'll be old fashioned, with red and green colors. I've got enough paint lying around to do it.

I'm also fairly certain I made a thread like this awile ago...

Worst car I've ever been in, eh? Well, my dad used to have one of these pieces of shit. I remember it broke one day and spent a year sitting on my driveway before it was towed away for scrapping, because my dad thought it was repairable even though it wasn't. Even before that though, it was constantly plagued with problems - Overheating, randomly refusing to start, randomly losing power. I think the ignition even died on him and he had to start it up each time by hot wiring the thing.

Austin Allegro 3 Estate. Yes, that's right - An estate car with 3 damned doors. It was blue, like this one:


But here's a look at the front of this monstrosity:

I can apply for my Learners permit in 7 months. I can't imagine my parents will like that very much. I'm sure they'll like the thought of my friends that they don't know driving me around even less.

Bet your dad loved that square steering wheel in the Allegro didn't he DarkHoodness? Yes they were very unreliable cars with poor build quality, just like all cars built by British Leyland, best car they made was the Rover SD1, but just like all their other cars, unreliable and poor build quality which is a shame because it is one of the best looking cars of all time and even had the option of the Buick/Rover V8.

Given that your life is mostly spent in the late 1950s, I don't find that feeling so unusual.

If I remember correctly, he hated it so much that he went down to the nearest scrapyard a week after buying that blue monstrosity and had the steering wheel replaced. :P

Suppose I have to agree that the Rover SD1 looks good... For a Rover. But there are plenty of similar cars of its time period that look better than it.
