    posting your real cars doesn't provide as much entertainment though.

    I guess it ain't too cool for me, as I had one (non-touring, mind you). Do you by any chance post in stanceworks? I'm pretty sure it has a white touring/orange rim combo too. What engine is it?

    Pix!?

    Nah I don't really care for the "stance" thing... my car isn't lowered so it looks a bit dumb.. It's got normal silver wheels again though as I removed the plastidip.

    It's an M50B25.

    I have a 2002 Buick LeSabre Custom, bought it on Black Friday 2008, with just over 64000 miles on the clock, as she sits today she has a little over 140500, and running strong.

    A couple pictures from when I bought her in 2008:

    I had Painted the grille, trim on rear lightbar and the side chrome emblems a dark metallic gray, Since these pictures I have painted the B-pillars the dark blue of the car, instead of that horrid flat-ish black.

    The car I had before the Buick was a 1995 Ford Taurus SE, it was the last year for that body style, so to clean out some parts bins for the Taurus SHO, Ford decided to make a custom trim to the Taurus, it got the SHO interior, optional rear wing, as well as cooling system components from the SHO, but without the SHO DOHC motor.

    And last but not least, I drive transit buses for the local county RTA, here is an old picture of a bus I had on route this past December:

    Heres my current car - Ford Sportka 2007, superb fun to drive, if a little noisy!

    iYQRCUq.jpg

    Here are some of previous field cars ive owned from age 13-18:

    '84 Suzuki SJ410, had so many good year with this, surprised i never rolled it

    vZAGRCX.jpg

    '97 Skoda Felicia, absolutely bulletproof this, after years of field abuse it was put back on the road for older siblings!

    NtQnR7y.jpg

    '94 Vauxhall corsa, was never a fan. Didnt last long, still managed a good day of pulling my mates on sledges!

    lFifE8f.jpg

    97 Peugeot 106, Diesel! Pulled like a tractor, also pretty bulletproof!

    QfLs9Ux.jpg

    '94 Ford Escort, still got this. Bought it for steel wheel for the Ka! Great car though, dogs love going for runs in it.

    bivoY8Z.jpg

    '91 BMW 525i. Best £150 i've ever spent! Looks nice in the picture but mechanically it wasnt great, still got a good year of powersliding out of it!

    He's lucky till they mention Insuring said BMW, or the fact an older BMW is likely to be 99% rust by now :(

    I would have preferred the LT, but I can't afford it so I'll deal with the LS. :p

    Haha its not often you find a bmw going for that price! But it was never used on public roads, so obviously it wasn't insured. Got actually more for it than what i payed for in scrap! Went through tons of fuel though, averaged about 12 mpg!

    haha sounds about right. Was it M50 or M20? I daily an M50 Powered Touring.. since insurance isn't expensive here, and there are so many of the older BMW's courtesy of ex-uk and ex-japan imports so parts are cheap! and people tend not to want an old euro so they are cheap too!

    but it does guzzle.. and requires premium at $2.30/L

    This is what I fly (and don't own):

    PH-HBH-20050908-PICT0175-big.jpg

    Schweizer 333 235BHP

    I drive a 97 breeze. 2.0 liter, auto. really boring. But then I hit a deer. Now the front plastic bumper and hood are green and the rest of the car is purple. Also bought a 75 Chrysler Newport, but it won't see much road time... She'll get wrecked :D I'll upload pics later when it's not dark out and I'm not lazy lol
