I am driving a 97 Ford Escort Sedan, Silver, manual with no upgrades. It was my first car and meant for serve purely as a vehicle in college. I graduated last year, so I am looking to upgrade to something newer (with air conditioning!) and shinier like the 2011 Fiesta. I like Sedans, but will probably go with the Hatchback for the "cool" factor.

As soon as the weather gets cooperative here, I need to toss the battery back in my truck and fire it up so I can get an oil change and finish working on getting the back brakes in operating condition before I begin dismantling the box off it for cab and chassis restoration.

I drive a 2010 Ford Flex Ecoboost, a 2009 Lincoln MKZ, a 1987 E30 BMW Convertible, a 2005 Harley-Davidson Road King. I also have a fleet of vintage cycles and scooters with historic plates.
A 2011 Fiesta SE replaces the Flex, A 2011 Edge Limited replaces the MKZ. |

1) 1984 VW Rabbit GTI (daily driver with 160k miles ) no AC...well no NOTHING except for vent windows and a Blaupunkt AM FM stereo!
2) 1996 VW Golf GL (daily with over 140k) Thing has been flawless! 3) Peugeot 405Mi 16 (weekend fun 88k) Lots of fun, very few problems. 4) Peugeot 505 Diesel (occasional useage) Reliable as heck, never any issues! 5) Renault Fuego Turbo (occasional usage) Fun, and reliable only general service. All are in excellent condition and look and run perfectly Last edited by golf strom; 05-16-2010 at 08:32 PM. |

Points on both accounts though honestly if things change though I'll probably get the necessary credentials like Pete and have my own ST MK II in a year or two. Though in most aspects it would most likely cost the same to petition, crash, crash, and crash then jump through some hoops with the EPA and have your own MK II that way rather than slink it in piece by piece.

I drive 2004 Toyota Matrix XR 5 speed maual. Great looking car, but no personality. Quality and workmanship very disapointing. I also have a 1965 Corvair Monza convertible. This car is a blast. Rear engine six, sounds cool. No engine in the front means the manual steering is easy and has tons of feel. Handles like a sports car. Stops like a 911, from the 60's at least. If I didn't live in the snow belt, it would be my only car. I wish I could figure out how to post a photo.

I bounce around between a 97 Sable LS wagon, a 92 Ranger stx, a 00 zx2 s/r and 93 escort gt.I bought the Ranger and zx2 new. the other stuff I got busted and cheap. I also have a 69 mach one I have owned since 82 and an 87 Escort GT that I bought cheap/busted and have prepped for Ice racing here in MI but have had no time in the last two years to take out and play with. I hope to change that this winter. I am going to autocross the Fiesta with a couple friends and they will take it to FL this winter to do some events down there until late November. I think the new Fiesta will be great! I had a 79 Fiesta S that gave my late father and I many grins.
