    A friend of mine is looking for a new whip but is'nt really sure what he wants. What are some of your favorite vehicles that you have owned or driven? 2005+ Tacomas aside.

    Subaru's, I've liked pretty much every one I've driven.

    Little bro has a Forester, I've driven the impreza, WRX, and STI. I really liked the OUTBACK! thing was a beast climbing some hills, no taco, but i was utterly impressed

    and the new xv crosstrek coming out looks sick. I really like the new Imprezas and they basically just lifted it 3 inches or so and gave it bigger tires haha so I want one.

    Toyota Trucks, Subaru Cars, FTW

    1982 280zx turbo is my all time favourite. I sold it last year as I had to go abroad for my higher studies, hopefully I’ll be buying one as soon as I finished my studies and return home.

    Amazed with how balanced a vehicle could be, felt like a part of my arms and legs. Aesthetically, excellent.

    '87 RX-7
    Slow... but oh did that thing drift and it was incredibly controllable.

    I'll keep posted if I can remember anything else memorable!

    many German Cars.....the best truck is a 1995 mitsubishi montero 4x4. Close to two hundred thousand miles, nary a rebuild, nothing.. just a few engine assessories, tires, brakes thats it. I still have it, and since its not worth anything, I will always keep it. No ticks, smoke, smooth as silk, Bullet proof, built like a bank vault, and a well oiled machine.

    1. Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. Only took her down the highway and back but still one of the best car's I've ever driven.

    2. Porsche Panamara Turbo S. Again just a highway drive but worth every second. The salesman wasn't expecting me to push it as hard as I did and made me quit.

    3. Kawasaki KX85. Rode it for years loved every terrifying second of it. The day I told my dad that I was thinking about selling it I wrecked it and dislocated my hip. Guess Isabella didn't want to leave me.

    4. Porsche Boxster S. She's a thing of beauty so well balanced with a strong motor but gear box design sucks due to the sealed bearings and currently doesn't have a second gear.

    5. Mazda Miata with a 5.0 Mustang V8. Lots of under steer but will leave a mile long skid mark on the road and, if you're not careful, in your pant's.
