There sure are a lot of nice cars pictured here. A car wouldn't work for me though.

Duke likes to ride in the back of the truck and let his ears flap in the wind. And besides, I'd have a heck of a time hauling wood home in a car.

Hate to hijack this thread, but Duke isn't the only dog who owns his own pool -

Aren't dogs the greatest? He helps in the shop too (he doesn't have his own table saw though).

Kevin,

I am glad to see another off-roader here! Although I play for a different team (Nissan), I do admire what Toyota has done with FJs. Beautiful cars. My only problem with them is the lack of visibility.

Comes with 500,000km of mountain travel on the clock. Never lets me down.


Project - Long Term. Red is kind-of my colour.


One of the reasons I generally drive the Toy.

I had a 1991. Same truck. Then I had a '93. I'm guessing yours has been re-painted? If not it's in great shape.

My '91 had an option that I wasn't aware of until it was too late. It had a big magnet installed behind the grill that pulled me into a light pole, causing me to total the truck

My '93 I drove for 10 years. I put 125,000 miles on it. Our winters get bad here and it was rusted beyond repair. Great mechanically

I'm driving a Audi A3 1.8T 2001 in Summer and right now as a "Winter-Car" an Audi S6 Plus V8 4.2 liters. If the weather is nice maybe I'll take out my Kawa ZZR 1100, but my girl doesn't like that much :)

A bigass Expedition that I love. Company gas card helps a lot. I average about 40k per year so I like the room, comfort and visibiltiy. Too many cars in the past. 1958 356A sunroof coupe, 1963 356B Super 90 Cabriolet, 1973 2002Tii, were some of my favorites.

You guys have some amazing cars
It's a shame cars are so expensive in Denmark. For example, a BMW M3 2008, costs very close to 300.000 $ US


This is my '07 Subaru Impreza:

I drive a 2004 Acura TSX, 6 MT, whic I've modded to a certain extent, adding a cold air intake, aftermarket header, had the ECU reflashed by Hondata, added Acura's A-Spec suspension, which dropped it about an inch, installed a rear sway bar, and added some ultra high performance all season rubber (Pirelli). It's a hoot to drive.

For you Europeans, this car is similar to the Euro Accord, at least in appearance.

My toy at the end of this past racing season



After replacing a number of parts and a fresh coat of paint


I'll be building a new carbon fibre splitter and undertray this weekend with a racing buddy that competes in some of the SWC races. The new rear wing was delivered last Friday so we'll build mounts for that at the same time as the splitter build. More pics to follow when complete.

With some very minor engine mods (cams, higher compression OEM pistons and custom ecu), it pumps out 211 whp from a 1.8 litre engine.

I have a prius now as I needed the extra space, lovely car and I love the fact I drive on electric most of the time!
