this thread is not your favourite car cuase most of the time peoples favourite car is usually some car with a gastly price tag out of our reach...my favourite car that i have driven would either be my friends 1990 300zx tt , or my freind Haydens dads 1988 porsche 944 turbo.

ooooooooh, nice post.

CLS55 AMG.
E55AMG.
Feee-rawr 360 modena
Audi RS4 (B7)
Audi R8 (RHD)


But define nicest? I think most people associate nice with expensive. Favorite? SO many upscale cars have great features that make them nice. So thats a given.

But one could also say, Lexus LS430, I think that is one of the most comfortable cars to be in. Or the new escalades. Or even a MB 280. I mean thats a comfy car, and reasonable. But SL55's are pretty baller too.

however - I would throw two other funny cars in there.. a RHD vauxhall corsa VXr (tuned by thorney motorsports in milton keynes), and a BMW 550.

Maybe the bigger question, is WHY was it the nicest car you've driven?

This one was being pushed while I "drove" it but its still my favourite that I've had the chance to steer.

My grandpa's 1969 Jaguar Mark II, he's had it since I was about 5 and its just never been put back together. This year I hope to throw some hours into it and get it reassembled since its mostly complete. It's just my grandparents aren't as up to the task of working 8-10 hours days on it like they used to.

Why is it my favourite? Sentimental value. Normally a car is a car to me, I cut them up, I weld on them, its just a piece of steel. This car here, as soon as I hear the word Jaguar I think of my grandpa immediately that's how long this has been around me for. I just hope one day it does get assembled and taken out for at least one drive while both my grandparents are still around. *knock on wood*

This is a difficult decision

either the Acura TL Type S or 300zx twin turbo or Infiniti G35 X

They were all spectacular in their own ways I suppose

I have only had my drivers (learners) for around 2 weeks now, so it would have to be this. 77 F-150 4x4. It also has some sentimental value, knowing I've turned every bolt on this truck to turn it into what it is today.

That classic ford is awesome, looks to be in mint condition. Personally my favorite vehicle is my dad's one ton ram, quad cab long box with the CTD. The reasoning, it eats ricers for lunch. lol

For me it has to be my uncle's car with out a doubt. It's a 1994 Dodge Viper that was originally tuned by Hennessy performance to be a Venom 550. (550 HP, up 150 from stock) He recently put on an exhaust from Rowe Racing so now it's closer to 600HP. He thinks it's truely a little over 600 at the crank. In a car that light with that much grip and that much power, it's fast as hell. He doesn't even use 2nd gear on the street unless he's flooring it and you can't notice it because of the massive amounts of torque. When my sister drove it, she went from first, missed 3rd, and ended in 5th at the beginning of a hill. It just pushed up the hill with no problem. I truely love his car, and I truely hate speed limits. He once brought it to Pocono Raceway and had 911 Turbo's on NOS that couldn't catch him. He was being a pansy and not going past 4,000RPM in 5th. He didn't even hit 6th and the Porsche's couldn't keep up. It's just one more reason why I love his car.

So far it is my 72 Dart. The interior, right now, is not nice at all but your driving a bright red muscle car with a big hood scoop, really loud exhaust and when you sit at idle the whole car shakes because of a really big cam. I just drove my friends 94 civic with an estimated 325hp engine when it weighs like 2500 lbs. I had a hard time driving it, I am to used to my clutch in my Altima with its really loose clutch and his civic has a stage 4 clutch that if you let out to fast the whole car will shake like mad.

its gotta be my parents (soon to be mine) 2002 civic. not much, but i like the feel of being in a small sport car. my parents have an impala, way more power and huge room, but its to big. also i prefer the 5spd over an automatic.

but this all might change when we get our dodge ram hemi. i love trucks.
