Why did you pick your car(s)?

What made you choose your car(s)? Was it the performance? The styling? I picked my Celica because I loved the way it looked. It's one of the best looking cars ever made in my opinion. I fell in love with the way it drove too. It's not the fastest car or the best handling car, but I have a blast driving it. I just love the way it feels, and when I get in everything just feels right. Yeah it has almost no aftermarket support and if I want more power I have to go through a lot of work. But you know what? I don't really care. My Celica is special and sticks out in a crowd. I love it to death and I will never ever sell it.

  • Well, my F-150 was -blam!-ed up because coolant or something leaked into one of the cylinders in the engine. The leak itself, for some reason, would cost thousands of dollars to repair. So we have it a temporary fix and sold it to Carmax before they would notice. It only had 125,000 miles. I miss my truck but I'm really happy with my 2007 Honda Element SC. It's got an unbelievable amount of space which is important to me, since I'm 6 feet 4 inches tall and I weigh 300 pounds. It's also fun to drive and it has pretty good speakers and a subwoofer built in.

    Jeep for Buffalo winters and long country roads and hills to work. And it was dirt cheap on the side of the road (high mileage) My Milan is for gas milage and travelling. And I just like the styling, though the exact same car (Ford Fusion) would have been cheaper. I bought it, but it's really my wife's. Both black, of course.

    I'm currently in the market for a small roadster/coupé and my criterias are based on: *Budget (If I can't pay something cash I'm not buying it, give or take a house) *HP's *Performance *Look *To some degree brand I just discovered the AR 4C so I might just increase the budget for that. Reviewers labeled it the cheapest "supercar" and it looked pretty awesome.

    • Subaru BRZ. I know it doesn't have much HP, but given the intent behind the design...I'm very happy with it. I chose it and not the FR-S simply because of the Limited Edition features. That and it looks rad.

      • I picked my 86 Broncos II because I wanted something 4x4, easy to work on, roomy enough for people, yet still giving me plenty of room for gear, and lastly it was in my pricerange and had less than 100k on a rebuilt engine

          • As the Mustang is under restoration, and nobody has bought it, yet there's a guy coming down from Alaska to take a look at it... crazy, right? OT: I currently share the Tundra with my mom, she's a great little truck, and Is well maintained.

            • I picked my 2011 tC because it's functional, big on the inside, sexy, cheap to insure, reliable, easy to fix, and so on. I love that car c:

              • Here, I just took this a few minutes ago. Just waiting on a welder for the floor pans now. Other than that, minor mechanical work is needed, and then we can start on the body! [spoiler]Also, I do like your Celica. If somebody DOES buy the car, that's the first thing on my list for a car.[/spoiler]

                • I picked my car because it's a style icon and 1959 classic design. That and it was cheap. Also now comes under classic car insurance and is road fund licence exempt. The 1000cc engine and wheel at each corner make it fantastic fun.

                  • My dream car right now is the Dodge Challenger HEMI 2013. There's a slight problem though, Dodge does not make right sided steering for it. This sucks because I will have to either move countries or get the steering moved which will cost a lot of $$$$$

                  • It must be nice to be able to pick a car based off something other than budget, it's a rare luxury for most

                        1993 lexus gs300. It was given to me, but it had a 2jzgte that I bumped up to 350hp. It looks fricken good on 18in wedsport sa60ms too. I would never trade it. But I need a new daily driver haha, so I'll probably get a celica like yours or a newer carolla for a dd and bump the lexus hp to around 580 or higher XD[spoiler]ps, love the celica bro. My dad wants to get an even older one, or an older supra[/spoiler]

                        • My Sentra was given to me, but it's a worthy first car My next purchase will be based off of cool factor, performance, and looks. Once I get my hands on a used C5Z or WS6 I'll never let them go
