^ Same here. Although I too would like a 4 or 5 car garage...


Posted

Ok, let's take this a step further. If you had a 6 car garage and lots of money.....what would you fill it with?

I would have Lexie, go buy back my Camaro from Joe, a classic '68 Camaro, preferably a convertible, a Nissan GT-R, some kind of a big luxury Lexus loaded to the hilt, and some sort of off road fun vehicle. That would about cover all the bases.

Ha, I'd still have to leave on outside even with a six car garage. Hmmm, assuming it was empty...

My IS250AWD

My nissan Frontier

A black corvette 6 speed

A new LS 460L

And leave a few spaces open for shopping

3 months ago I replaced my commuter Honda Civic with this 2010 Honda Civic CNG (white HOV stickers for solo access to carpool lane).

Nice. Civics are fun to drive. When I "repossessed" the one from my daughter, I had fun driving it for a few months.

My mom bought a new Civic EXL last summer and I have driven it a few times. Very nice cars for the price.

Thanks. After nearly 4 months of ownership, the fun to drive/handling and refinement exceeded expectations. The economy and reliability was pretty much as expected.

Good point on cheap Honda Civic parts, especially compared to premium cars. Even common maintenance stuff like brakes and tires are much cheaper.

Nice variety of cars midwesterner. Has the 2003 Z4 been a good car for you?

My garage is very tightly packed! Next to my 430, is my lovely F150...

You can't see it, but there is an ATV in front of the Lexus too..

I can appreciate that. There really is nothing better than having a pickup. I'd be lost without one. Pretty sweet 150, even from a Chevy guy like me. I can fit the Silverado in our garage in Massachusetts because it is really deep and my wife's RAV4 is narrow. In VB, my IS250 and 66 Cutlass live inside. Other are out or dispersed.

Posted

blake, didn't you have an LS400 back in the day? Seem to remember that from 10 years ago.

Posted

Wow, a very nice F150. Many of my neighbors have a Japanese small pickup or older domestic full sized domestic truck as 3rd vehicle, but few have something like that.

For a few days starting yesterday, a 2014 Prius. (The Mercedes C250 is at body shop due to negligent driver putting a $1100 scrape/scratch in rear door on the freeway, rental car and repair care of their insurance fortunately)

Other than 40-45 mpg I have little positive to say after driving the Prius this evening, it's gutless, bland, slow/numb steering, mediocre throttle response, funny brake feel.

Eew. You forgot ugly.

I could tolerate the latest gen Prius styling if the driving experience was closer to being acceptable.

The CT Lexus hybrid (derived from Prius) that I had as loaner last year was more rewarding to drive.

My wife's ATS sits next to my new NX. My wife is a huge Caddy fan (until I got this NX) and now she always wants to take my car.

I kept telling her she should get a Lexus but noooooo.

Posted

Welcome GlenK. The ATS certainly is a nice compact sport sedan, post a picture when you have a chance.

Blew that attempt. Let's try this again. This time I'll attempt no order pics of Alexus, Onslow, Agatha, Mr. Dodge and Emma. ('96 XJS 2+2 Jaguar, 1950 Dodge Pilothouse truck, 2004 GMC Envoy, 1956 Austin Healey 100 M and of course the 2005 SC430.) the truck is almost completed in its frame off restoration.
