(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I've noticed a lot of you guys here are very much into cars, but the threads where we get good discussions going always get closed; under the terms of "already posted." Well, I am your savior. Here is the thread where we can discuss anything that is related to cars. Things may include but are not limited to: your new ride, a dream car, a picture of a car you recently saw, advice on a car purchase or modification, a new upcoming car, a memory with a car, or just maybe a cool picture of a car you found. I imagine this could be a pretty active thread, as I see myself coming to post in it often.

I will report any and all flames. Let's just respect each other and different ideas.

Have at it! Smile

I have alot to say but I'd like to keep it short. This year in school I have a small engine repair class so I'm getting familiar with engines. My favorite car is the Bugatti Veyron, as it is fucking great. But something practical would be a Ford Raptor or something. Also, there is no point to even replying to Dopey as he is a fuck head.

I still have to defend my thread when someone like that calls it out. I'm not going to let a mod side with his troll logic without the chance to hear my side.

I Think this thread is a good idea, as I was just debating wether to start a thread about my dads new Car!
E-Class Cabriolet! Its beautiful, and I love it! Its Black on Black, with admittedly not to many extras, as the car is a 2Year lease, so he had to have it as it came to get it a lot cheaper, and sooner!
I've not managed to get some good pics of it yet, but as soon as i do they'll be on here :y:

There's the same model in my sig, just different wheels, and engine.

Enjoy

It seems like one of the best practical convertibles out there! It's not an R8 or anything, but it hauls 4 people comfortably in style. Doesn't it have something like an "air cap," thing on it so it makes it even more comfortable for the rear passengers? I like the look of the front, looks sharp. Cool Man (aka Tustin)

Thats exactly why my dad bought it, It's the same size of his old A6 Estate. Big boot for a convertible, as the roof is stored in a small compartment. Enough leg room in the back. Theres 4 of us in the house, and its luxurious and is relatively good on MPG. Claimed around 50mpg combined, my dads getting 26mpg Cool Man (aka Tustin) He's got heavy feet :L

Yes, its pretty cool, you press the button on it raises and if your in the front you can hardly feel a thing!

There's a lot of technology packed into that! MB always impresses me. So it must be the diesel then? If so, I don't blame him with all that low-end torque. When I put my foot down in my car, I'm lucky to average around 13.

The weird thing is, he test drove the E220 Sedan, BORING. Test drove E350 Estate, I missed :-(
He didnt even test drive our E250 Cab, just bought it! :L
And yeah, in england petrol is very expensive, and, well so is diesel. So he had to settle with a relatively boring and more practical engine.
