Well just post what you rollin' in

'93 GMC 1500 Sierra, this is what I drive to and from work everyday.






'04 Nissan Maxima, this is what I drive when my mom come home and aint doing shit. I tried to get some more pics of it but it was too dark in the garage, even with the light on..so I could only get the front part of the car.

There's some pics of my toys. I don't drive them right now, being that the yellow one gets 10mpg, and the gray one I am fighting with Wells Fargo for the lein release. they won't give it to me because I didn't have the loan. the guy I bought it from did. My daily driver is a big Ford F150. It's plain. No pics of that.
 
I forgot that you like those old muscle cars. I like the yellow one alot! Is that a '80's Pontiac Thunderbird? Probally automatic too eh? My mom's '04 Nissan Maxima has both auto and manual transmissions, its pretty weird to me though when I use the manual part 'cause they're only plus and minus signs when shifting gears. The GMC has those dual exhaust pipes on it and is really loud, makes it seem like your going 50mph when your actually going 20mph. That truck doesn't even have an RPM meter on it and only maxes out to 80mph.

Thunderbird?? No. Firebird!!! Both are automatics, but the yellow one is getting a Richmond six speed as soon as I get around to rebuilding the engine, and buying a McLeod scatter shield. It's currently the stock 403ci engine, but soon will have about 600 horsepower.
The grey one is an '89 Trans Am with the TPI 305 and the stock TH700R4 tranny. A buddy I work with is bugging me to have him install a twin turbo kit on it, which will net 1,000 HP. But the tranny will have to go because GM didn't build them to handle more than about 400 lbs-ft of torque, and the tail shaft will snap off on the first throttle punch.
By the way, calling a Firebird a Thunderbird is almost sacrelige!! :D
 
Well I dont know all of these friggin' muscle car names, I just know a few. Now if you would of had a import or something else then I would of named the car correctly. Why do you need so much HP? I mean, are you planning on drag racing or something? I bet you can't even handle 1,000 HP. So its a '80's Firebird eh? Least I got the number right...or did I? *waits for another reply*

Umm..I was into imports before the movie came out anyways, it just bumped the hype up more when it was released.

I meant in general. I live in LA so naturally that happened. Everybody here is fake. And I bet you cant handle 1000 HP either. Nothing wrong with HP. Plus anybody with enough money can make either an import or a muscle car handle well. Thats all it is is how much money you can put into your car.
 
Well, I don't "need" 1,000HP per se. But yes it will be for the most part a drag race car. But the good thing about turbos is the streetability. At city cruising speeds, the low end blowdryer is barely spooling up to make nuetral pressure in the intake. The high end isn't even moving while the engine is at 1,500 RPMs. As for the yellow one, I'm goping more for a road race concept. 500HP, six speeds, and huge-by-large meats will be able to cruise at 170+ in sixth gear, provided I have a relatively low read end gear.
And yes, it's an 80s Firebird. :D
As far as imports, I'd love to get my hands on a VW Corrado VR6 or a late 90s BMW 325i convertable. Japanese imports do almost nothing for me.
 
My ride beats all of yours combined. 1995 Mercury Villager van. This thing's got a 151-horsepower, 3.0-liter Nissan V6, coupled to a 4-speed automatic transmission. :D

Actually, I think it might be able to top out over 100 if I drove it off a cliff, but that's about it :lol

I'll get pics up later.
