What car have you bought home lately???

Upside? Maybe the HX Concept will see the light of day.

That would be sweet! Main thing for me is I really don't want car payments.

You never know, you might get to see it in the Petersen museum alongside the VX-02 if the Chinese eventually kill Hummer.

This this thread....

Is there a better way to persuade one into getting an STi?

And the interior.... wow. I am SO glad they redid it from scratch. Dual material leather with very swank lit gauges and wrap around cockpit. +2 for Subaru in that dept finally.

i would LOVE to have the subaru for playing, but i think all that would get me is arrested and my new ride impounded (we dont have legal areas to do things like that in colorado...the closest we have is frozen lakes )

my reasoning behind the truck- better mileage than an STI, i can pull a boat (once i get one)...and i can make my VX into the trail rig i want it to be
ps- give me a chip and an exhuast...then we will race STI vs. diesel

Cute Jeep. Paint it pink & it'll look just like Barbie's.

justin, weren't you just b!tching about not being able to afford anything so your going to sell your VX???

I just picked up this zippy little go cart about a week ago. It’s a 1990 Ford Festive, basically it's a Mazda 121 with Ford badges. I love this thing! It’s fast fun to drive and it has a real SOHC Mazda 4 banger in it.

i dunno....i just dont understand how selling the VX is gonna help all that much...its probably only worth like 7K right?

btw...i get FIRST dibbs when you sell

[tom4bren]

If I had a cool god-like name, maybe I'd drive a girly jeep too - it'd have to be Proton tho.

Sincerely,

Thor - I have no response to that - tom4bren

I hope to get $8k out of it actually. I can do without the $260 a month payments plus insurance, ya know.

well, after you post it for 8 and wait for a little while...then ill buy it for 6.5 from ya

wouldnt mind making a street rod for the girlfriend to drive during the winter outta it (with that gearing it could really get up and go)

[kodiak]

Hahaha! Hay, I had to do something to get her off my back about the VX and the fact that she will NEVER drive it.

People can give me crap for owning a Jeep if they want - at least I don't have a Festiva! What Richard, you had to have a car your girl could get into?

or a full size diesel pickup

Why is this the vehicle of choice in the western mountain states? I have seen them many times in Tahoe, in Montana, and Utah. What gives?

Since I bought my VX in Dec 2004, I have brought home three vehicles...

well...i snowboard at least 2 days a week, driving sometimes through a couple of feet of snow, thats number one!
also, my next MAJOR purchase will be a wakeboard boat...planning on trading in some of my toys for it, what else am i supposed to pull a 25 foot boat with?? the VX?
i love the STI but for the price, the truck will get better mileage, have more room, and give me more availibility of things to do...

basically i need something bigger with better mileage.....i dont see any more viable options?

[VehiGAZ]

I just picked up a 03 Z4. I figured I needed something special for my 40th birthday

Indeed, Andy! Nice choice! And Happy Birthday to my fellow 40-year-old CT VXer!
