Enough of this dream car stuff, we havent had a car thread in a while. The point of this one is to post the car that you drive today. Why? Because I just bought a new one and I want to show it off.

In Japan there is no such thing as a cheaque, all transactions are done in cash. This was the first oddity. The second was that the salesman came to our house to do all the paper work and then returned to deliver the car to us, at which point I handed over the cash. So... this:

Money shot...

turned into this...

Seats four Japanese comfortably... or one of me.

Yep, ima pimp.

It is a Daihatsu Tanto with a massive 660 cc engine. Look out. The genre of car is called a k-car in Japan. Cars are taxed based on engine size, so having a tiny little fuel efficient engine saves lots of money. Needless to say we wont be going up any mountains though.

So, gogo, post your car so I don't look like a total egotistical jerk!

Not my car, but the same model and year (2001 Corolla)... Pretty good deal. 30k miles and it will only cost me $2500.

Some of the people I know have really, really nice cars: Ferrari Enzo's, Porsche 911, etc. etc.

Still the same '99 mustang.

Though I want to get rid of it sooner than later. Hopefully it'll be replaced in the next year.

Mani already wins the thread with his rad cube.

Anyways, I hate to be one of those cocks who posts stock pics but I don't exactly have a single photo of my car. It looks exactly like this one though (same color, everything), minus the fancy mountain range and plus about 3 inches of winter road gunk.

Winter car:

Yeah, I love BW so much I have a Korean car. Fuck's sake.

So that leaves the summer.

Summer car:

God, I'm getting itchy waiting for the snow to melt.
edit: Christ, the engine in this thing is bigger than in mani's car... and it's not a big bike.

And here's a picture of a nicely rolled spliff I had on my laptop for some reason. I think I smoked this before watching the Bob Dylan documentary:

i really like this car, it feels stable and smooth when driving it. some smaller cars that i've driven feel "flimsy". i'll admit the acceleration is not that great though.
