What cars have you owned and what do you drive now?

Mmartin_47

As for me-
2006 Scion tC
2007 Pontiac G6 convertible
2008 Infiniti G35
2008 Infiniti G37S

Also drive an 03 lancer as my daily beater and my gas saver.

Only complain on my current car is that I hate driving on steep hills (6 speed). Wish it had anti-rollback like the Audi S5 =P

Had an '89 Toyota Camry for a few years, next came a '91 Suburu Legacy, then came a '91 Eagle Talon. It broke down and we were so broke that I had to sell it to make rent. Now I just car pool with the wife in her '02 Honda Civic.

Oh no the G37S is 6 speed. The lancer is an auto. But I feel the tranny acting up already.

not throwing it off topic but having driven the G35 and G37s, how do you compare the two? Ive been skeptical of the new platform of the g37. Loved my 350z but I hated it as a primary driver.

People said I was stupid to get rid of the 35 and get the 37. It's a whole different car. Found out on my car forums that many people did that step as well. It's completely redesigned. The G35 was first released in 2003 I believe. Finally I have touch screen navigation lol.

I will always buy used cars. I can't justify spending so much money for a new car just because.

Never really been one to spend a lot of money on a car, I really don't see the point. I have never spent more than $800 on a car (which is my current). My wife on the other hand drives a nice car which I did pay more than $800 for.

the older im getting, the more and more i find this to be true. I was never as happy with a 'fancy car' as I was with my little old pickup...I LOVE cars too. I guess I will just have to wait until i make a 7 digit salary
