The love of my automotive life right now is a '04 Mazda 3 5-door in gunmetal. She's wonderful. She like to go almost as fast as I do and loves curvy roads.

But if I could have anything else I'd take a Mazda RX-8 or maybe CX-7; something restored from the 30s-40s with suicide doors or a true Duesenberg; and maybe Jaguar XK or S-type R. I really want a garage with about 50-100 muscle and classic cars to cruise around in.

I traded my scoot in for a 2005 Ninja EX500 back in April

This is the 250 but I want the 500. They look pretty much the same.

What I REALLY want is a REAL Humvee!http://www.amgeneralcorp.com/Gallery...025armored.jpg I want the ARMY issue version, not the SUV prissy version.

I have an 06 Ford Expedition in a nice brown with beige accents (gamma phi colors LOL)

Mr Kunja drives an 04 Chevy Avalanche.

I would like to have either an 07 Tahoe as I love the new body style or a mustang. Think the Tahoe is more realistic with kids though :)

We have a 2006 Chevy HHR. I LOVVVVVE it.

But, if I could get anything else, I would get a Nissan Murano I think.

Right now I have a Volvo but I have my eye on the Dodge Caliber..

I haven't seen one in person, but I hear it has a built in iPod holder, a cooler in the glove compartment and fold down speakers that come down from the trunk. Pretty nice extra features, I must say....

I have a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire, but I'd like to buy a 2001 or 2002 Jetta.

I have a 1999 Mazda Protege LX 5-speed in red. I drive her in the summers and in the winter I am going to start to trade with my mom, who has a 2001 Mazda Tribute LX-V6. People up here scare me in the winter so I think I'll like having something bigger. I take the bus to school so at least the gas won't kill me.

I would love an old-school Rabbit convertible, although the upkeep would be insane.

I have a 2004 black Lexus IS300 which I love more than anything (except when it snows b/c it's rear wheel drive) but it will be time soon for a new car. I'd love a Range Rover (yeah right) or more likely an Audi or a BMW...I'd like a Benz but I think I'd look totally ridiculous driving one. We'll see though, I still have a good 6 months until I decide what to get...;)

I would love a diesel Touareg whenever they're released in the states.

Yes I'm quoting myself.

Close but not quite, we got an '05 Jeep Liberty CRD last summer. Gets pretty good mileage, but there is not nearly enough room with kid to haul all our crap around. The husband says they're releasing a diesel Grand Cherokee in 07 so we'll probably either upgrade to that or an E85 flexfuel Tahoe or Suburban when we have another kid.

I just got an 07 Tahoe and the dealer said getting flexfuel was a really dumb idea. I got a normal 4x4 and put a special air intake system and get 5 or 6 more miles per gallon, very pleased.

I drive a Sagebrush Pearl (fancy term for gray with metallic green specks) Acura MDX. I like it except it has a gray leather interior which is depressing to me.

This summer I was test driving a red BMW 325i and a Volvo S80 because I thought a sedan would get better gas mileage than my SUV, but they don't really.

I got the husband a K&N system for his truck last year, he's gotten maybe 2-3 more miles/gallon since then. Mostly we want the flexfuel option because it's supporting local agriculture and fuel should/will be cheaper. He already uses an ethanol blend in his truck and I use biodiesel when I can. He prefers diesel, though, if we can get it.

macallan25 07-01-2006 02:36 PM

Yeah, that is a good thing about the flexfuel.

ADqtPiMel 07-01-2006 04:07 PM

I drive a 2004 white Dodge Neon, which I love. Someday I'd like an Audi.

AlphaSigOU 07-01-2006 08:40 PM

Drive a 2005 Chevy Cavalier... would like an Aston Martin DB9 with front machine guns, lasers and ejector seat, but I can't afford champagne taste on a beer budget! :) ;) :D
