    @Quotation There was not any planed sarcasm. My question was not a true question though. I knew his Honda would be better.

    Hey guys I live in Australia
    My list is
    Mum
    - one of those super common Hyundai Elantras from 2007
    Me
    - '99 Hyundai excel twin cam

    Dad
    - about 13 holdens including HR's, HD's, Toranas, a nissan patrol and a t-bucket
    The torana is pretty well known here in south Australia as it has run 9.7 quarter mile with the original 6-cylinder 202 engine

    Picture is of my hyundai excel
    (Sorry its my only photo of it on my ipod right now and its too dark to go outside and take a photo)
    --- Post updated ---
    This is the holden torana i mentioned above
    Im not sure on how much power it makes but i personally think it makes about 300 to 350hp but it wieghs less than a tonne as it has been gutted becuase it is a drag car

    I thought you required a six point rollcage for that kind of speed? and I don't see one(although I do miss a lot).

    Anyway to keep on topic Two of the four are pretty uncommon for South Australia.
    No car for me got some problems keeping me from getting a licence sadly.

    Mum: 2004 Toyota Camry(boring for a car lover like myself)(also no picture as it is stock and boring haha)

    Dad: 1981 corvette(hence the username) with a swapped 427 c.i sbc (in the shed since 2012 with no progress)

    He ran the 9.7 before the rules were updated to make it safer. Soon he will put that engine back in though and he will be putting a permanent cage that will be safe to run i think 8.0 which is plenty fast enough for that car.

    Well my family have a 2006 Nissan Tiida(Versa) and I have been on that car when I am small and my mom say I chooses the car and it somehow maybe because the mighty japan made L4 it only breakdown once because of dead battery, We might have a new Subaru Legacy 2.0 T CVT (Liberty In Australia) Everyone Knows Subaru Means Flat engines like the famous EJ20 but this car have the FA20 and it a cvt which we all know means Unsporty but it is good at fuel eating

    Me
    None. Gonna have to wait at least another three years :(
    I like the Japanese cars, it seems like I'm the only one in the family. Integra? Silvia? AE86? Celica? I have no idea. I really like the first gen subaru legacy though. Don't really know if any of those other than the integra were imported into the US though... Oh well.

    The S15 Silvia is the only one that was not imported. S14's are sort of easy to find on craigslist, but they are usually overpriced. S13 are more easy to find, but finding an unmolested one is near impossible. The AE86 is one of my favorite cars, especially the hatch. The coupes are a little easier to find, but it is much harder to get an ok deal. With the Celica, I'm guessing you are talking about the Celica Supra, which you can probably find a couple on craigslist.

    My first and current car. It's a 2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS, with the original 'sedona' red. Worked and paid for it myself, with a little help from my brother. She's my baby.
