Your chariot awaits...

I hope this is the right place for this. What kind of car do you drive? what is your dream car?

For myself, I drive a red '91 Pontiac Grand Am. Formerly a Saab 9000, but was in a wreck three weeks ago.

The one car that I could willingly own, to the exclusion of all others, for the rest of my life is a '53 Vette, restored to the point that all would stand and take note. :drool: Ah well. *looks for napkin.*

I drive a 2002 Saturn SL2 sedan, after my shabby but highly reliable 1995 Honda Civic LX met an ... untimely end.

Never really thought about a dream car. I would probably be paranoid it would get stolen! :P

Right now I drive a 1996 Dodge Stratus; or rather, when I'm home that's what I drive, since we aren't allowed to have cars on campus our first year. :mutter:

I don't know what my dream car would be...probably something that flies. Do they make those yet? :P

I'm waaaaaaaaaaaaay to young to drive, but my dream car would be polished grey 1970 Sting Ray *or Corvete as some people call it*

I've got a snazzy green 2001 Honda Civic EX Coupe named "Drake". I love my little Honda, and my Honda loves me. ^^

My dream car... is a horse.

I think it would be cool if we all renounced automobiles and went back to horses, carts, walking... bikes. My main problem would be living far away from anywhere, though, so... ugh, I need my constantly falling apart truck.

Yes...blad eagles are magnificent creatures. j/k :P

I have an idea: how about we take a box, and put wheels on it. Two, three, no four of them! We can call it a car. Brilliant!

I would actually like to buy a motorcycle at some point, although I would have to learn to ride it first. :sweat:

I own a gray '89 Toyota Camry which was named, "Yoda" by the previous owner. It's still running strong with 160,000 miles on it.

If we are getting into ultimate fantasies: I'd love to ride on a gryphon.

Anyway... does anyone else think it would be fun to own a VW hippie van? Complete with psychedelic flowers and "PEACE" painted all over it?

My dad comes close. He owns a 1984 gray (orange interior) Volkswagon sedan. We call it the gray gander. It's actually older than I am. =P

I'm still saving up for a car, I have an uncle that can restore one for me when I get enough money (He won't build till I give him a down payment lol). The one I want is a red truck. (Any kind)
