What Are You Driving ??

[GrauGeist]

Good God, Terry...that thing is small enough to fit in my car's glovebox!!

Speaking of my car...I got a new car (well, new for me) last August. It's a 2008 Scion tC and is just about as new as you could ask for. It had 17, 450 original miles on it and still has some parts of it covered under the manufacturer's warranty.

While I was out over the weekend, I thought I'd grab a quick shot of it near the Sacramento river

Very cool Dave, that looks like a fun car.

 

[GrauGeist]

Thanks, it is!
It has the vvt-i Camry 2.4 liter 4-cyl, 6-speed auto trans and factory lowered/high-performance suspension. Not only is this machine a freakin' rocket, it just about outperforms my BMW 320i in mountain road/cornering!

Nice one Dave, looks the biz !

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

That looks really nice..

Aaron Brooks, think El Camino cut off at the back of the cab.............. which is a Chevelle wagon with the rear top removed.

I was thinking that seeing as how I own a El Camino. It did strike me as looking like a car in the front.

Nice one Dave, looks the biz !

That looks really nice..

Thanks Terry and NFN, it's a great driving machine!

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Oh yeah Dave, Excellent ride sir!!! We talked about it last week on FB and I was caught DOZING AGAIN!

 

[GrauGeist]

N/P Aaron, plus I was still thinking that the Holden flatbed had the front end of a 70's GM...like an Impala or something.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

I think it does.

Some cool sets of wheels there, but that Pinzgauer is just way to cool.
It was a favorite among ex-Yugoslav army drivers, just after the Steyr Puch (aka Mercedes Benz G class).

This is what I'm driving when I'm not driving my Pinz.

Ah, A Ford, built in Liverpool !!

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

Owned by Ford yes but when compared to anything Ford makes it's definately not a Ford. The closest I've come to a comparison is the Ford Torus... What we call it here in the states. But I looked very closely at it and find that although there are some similarities, it is definitely not the same.

 

[Airframes]

Only kidding! They're still not bad, but not what Jaguar used to be - but then that's true of many 'luxury' cars today. A guy who woks at the plant (or used to anyway), told me they are mainly built for the American market these days.

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

They probably are but that may change before too long. On another note, have you seen the latest Jaguar concept car? It's all electric and has 4WD. The thing looks like a spaceship. It's called, I think, the CXJ- 75. I'll post a picture of it when I find it again.

 

[Night Fighter Nut]

I'm sorry, its called the c-x75. The thing goes up over 200 MPH but again the range kills. They did add something I never saw before. Two turbo motors to recharge the battery to extend its range. Those are the turbo motors you see when looking through the back window.

my weekend wheels , i have a honda civic type r for the shopping

 

[Thebuilderofthings]

This is my 98' Z3 with 86,000 miles on it. Bought it brand new. More than enough room to put my RC planes in it quite comfortably.

God I miss my Jag!
