IDEAL CAR...

[red_door8]

Just want to know what your ideal car is and what features it should have, and also the style.

I would love to own a plain Honda Civic. It should be color silver.

[tr|n|ty]

hmmm well..i'm trying to bargain with my mom..if i live in hoboken, NJ and not in manhattan, she would buy me a jetta to go to work in the city. I would love a silver jetta GL TDI :D but ideally, i would rather have a land rover discovery in taxi yellow

[imogen]

a ferrari f12000.... :lol:

actually, yung car na parang gusto ko talaga dati pa... toyota rav 4 na 3 door. ngayon, ok lang sa kin ang honda civic na hatchback. :)

[The Rock]

The Rock's formula red Civic SiR is already his dream car.;) The Rock never thought he would have a flaming red car, even in his wildest dreams, but here it is.:cool: If The Rock had not gotten his Civic, The Rock really wanted the 2000 Toyota Rav4. That thing looks cool inside and outside, and there's no doubting the quality of a Toyota.;) The Rock's dad has a Y2K Mercedes Benz C200, so you could also consider that blue machine his dream car. Kung di lang sana palinggit at palagasgas ang Pinoy, eh di mas mamamaneho ni erpats ang kotse niya.:(

If you smell what The Rock is cookin!:cool:

[yuri]

i'm using a 2000 Ford Explorer Sport-2 door SUV 4.0l but BMW
740i is my first choice to drive up along the coast.

:)

[haaaaaaaay]

2000 4Runner, or Land Rover Safari, or a toyota Tundra

[batang uliran]

Like the Rock, already have it - an Audi A8 4.2 Quattro.
However, a nearby bimmer dealer has a vintage BMW M6 in great shape and in bright red and I find myself glancing at it as I drive by.

[FiRe`oN`iCe]

my ideal car would be HUMVee

hindi ba crv? :lol:

[onehitboy]

BMW M5. a benchmark for sport sedans. corvette-like acceleration, crisp handling, 4 doors, understated looks and a stick to boot.

the ultimate ultimate driving machine.

[:Þ]

My ideal car will always be a 3rd gen or 4th gen Camry!
A poor man's Lexus with a fine, smooth, and responsive accelleration over the throttle coupled with an excellent luxury features and nice look makes this baby my Ideal car, not exactly my dream car, but my Ideal car! I'm so glad I drive one. :D

My dream car is either a Viper or a Vette for a muscle car, and M3 or Supra on the import side. :) sweeeet.

[ev1ltvv1n]

BMW X5

[Swiftsure]

A 3-door Volkswagen Golf V6 4Motion in red or black. :)

[sha™]

audi basta audi! preferrably just like the one used in mi2:*)

[Calypso]

Mine's a Grand Cherokee Jeep :*)

[clawed_out]

hmmmmm

a chrysler pt cruiser's nice ...

a bimmer's maintenance is quite high & cant afford ako :)


honda's on my list too!

[Free Agent]

A flaming red Ford Mustang GT Convertible! That, to me is more affordable than my other dream car - Honda S2000 Roadster.

[scarab]

hmmm kala ko ba ideal car? puro high end to ah. sige sali na rin ako.

any brabus tuned merc. nuff said.

[DAILO]

I already have it...

my black E430... i really wanted a silver E55 but i couldnt wait if i ordered it... but i did save about $25,000... the savings went into my upgrades :D :D :D

[batang uliran]

Dailo:

Are you located in the US? Looks like you are since such a bad *** car like what you have would cost a fortune in Manila. BTW, just saw a Brabus S500 on the NJ turnpike a few days ago. One of the kidney doctors who works in my hospital also drove into the doctor's lot with a brand new M5! These cars make the A8 almost ordinary but I am still very happy with my car.

I travel back and forth from the US and the Philippines. My E430 is in the States and my Range Rover is in the Philippines. I make better use of them that way given the conditions. I contemplated shipping my E430 here but it would cost me the amount of another one after all the tax, registration, and liceanses... im working on it though. :D :D :D BTW, i saw here in Forbes a yellow F360 Modena and the other night a red F360 Modena at Venezia. Now thats a fortune! I am so envious!.... soon enough i will have my silver F360 Modena Spyder.. now thats my ideal car! :D :D :D

[onehitboy]

batang uliran:

audi of america announced at the 2000 new york international auto show that the audi S8 would come to the states within "the next twelve months".

that'll wipe the smirk off of your doctor-friend's M5.

w0rd.

[batang uliran]

Yup, 600 will be imported into the US. Too much money for me though - my A8 will have to do at least for the next 2 to 3 years. And if rumors are true, the S6 and the S4 Avant are to follow.

The S8 though is an awesome car - one of those "if you had to have one vehicle for everything and for all seasons" kind of car.

great car, Z28's. the LS1 is a great engine: 5.7 liter V8 puting the smackdown with 310 ponies and 340 pounds of twist. great for laying down twin black streaks of rubber several hundred feet long.

no gizmo-actuated variable-valve timing, no overhead cams, no independent rear suspension, no BS. honest to goodness low-tech pushrod power.

great price too. less than $20US. nothing faster out of the box for that price than a camaro.

aaah...i love the smell of burning rubber in the morning.

[:Þ]

I thought this is about an Ideal car? Most cars listed here are "dream cars", not ideal cars.. hehe

Anyways, I'll have a Mack Truck with a trailer. :D

it's probably one of the - if not THE most expensive - SUV's out there!

To Batang Uliran and Dailo:

envy!!envy!! ako nagbubus lang. I wonder if you could give us a lift home pleeeeeease.

[devlish_smile]

i've got my sweet ride... a 2000 A4 1.8T quattro in sparkling black. then for longer outings i drive a 99 jeep grand cherokee. ahh.. i can savour both worlds. as for dream rides... a bmw Z8 would be nice, veeery nice.

just wondering.... does anyone else have a problem with oTHeR SUVs being referred to as "jeeps"?

[onehitboy]

devlish_smile: great ride, your audi. good power from a turbo 4-banger. getting the quattro just makes the cake sweeter. gets great gas mileage too. it’s going to help, especially with the predicted gas price increase over the next couple of months.

ambition, ambiente or advance?

the suv world suffers from the same fate as any other mass marketed product out there. with a heritage stretching all the way back to the world wars, GM has so firmly entrenched its brand of suv’s that people tend to refer to most suv’s as “jeeps”. sort of like going to the store to buy “colgate” when they want toothpaste, or “coke” when they pine for a can of soda.

your JGC is one of the best suv’s out there. it sure as heck ain’t no poseur truck. ever done off-roading in it?

[devlish_smile]

tenks! yeah, the mileage on the audi is such a relief these days. i haven't been off-roading YET, but come next summer, i'm going to head north for some uncharted (err..less-travelled) territory.

Jeep Grand Cherokee must be very expensive, considering the fact that its manufacturers are Americans!

the jeep isn't as tough on the wallet as the audi, but i guess it's because i'm in north america (sowee, i forgot this site is run from the phils). plus, it helps to split the expenses with the family..teehee... of course that means having to share, but that's alright.

[sci]

IDEAL CAR:
just simple honda esi PPG silver lowerd no tint
leather finish and a stage 2 engine setup.

DREAM CARS:
The new Ferrari spider
Z8
Carrera 911

Ah, ok! Cherokees here are expensive because of the taxes. You're luck to buy a cheaper one there at north America.

For me, Ferrari is just another dream car. It's very expensive and of course very popular especially in F1 Racing.

i absolutely agree. in my mind, nothing beats german engineering. porsche, bmw, benz, audi and vw, to name a few, have really developed fine reputations in the automobile industry. even if you drive these cars in stock form, the performance, safety features and styling are truly exceptional. once you've driven a german automobile, it is really hard to drive anything else (or do i mean "less").

Wow! I also like Corvette coz it's stylish, I guess I'll own one just in my dreams!

well id like the new Honda Accord. its kind of pareho lang with the old one pero mas maganda na ang likod.

i see that you have yet to encounter the gremlins and the quibbles of owning a german vehicle.

it's true that the germans know how to build great cars, but reliability is still below that of the japanese.

in less than a year, my krautmobile has had all sorts of weird problems. don't get me wrong, it drives like a wet dream. but couldn't they at the very least have made these "driving machines" a bit more reliable?

just make sure you've got the cash handy after that warranty of your runs out. german built parts (and labor) cost an arm and a leg.

it's true.

[onehitboy]

same here, my friend. the C5 is the sweetest and most affordable convertible in my book.

Grabe! Ganda ng Honda Acura!

you can route orders for a nissan skyline through motorex inc. they are at 20695 South Western Ave #116 Torrance, CA 90501. tel: (310)224-5085

a 2000 V-spec can be had for $89,500. its a genuine, honest to goodness, for real nissan skyline. these cars meet US DOT and EPA specifications.

you've got to deal with a right hand drive though.

for that much money, i'd sink my moolah into an ///M5.

but that's just me.

the bimmer is fast as f*ck, with a 4 year bumper to bumper warranty and service to boot.

I can deal with a RightHand drive, it would be a good challenge and the looks ur gonna get will be worth it.. hehe..

the new Subaru Impreza WRX STi

[PennyLane]

I just love the new mini cooper :teehee:. It makes me coo and dewy eyed with nostalgia. I WANT ONE!!!

From CAR Magazine July 2001, "In many ways the New Mini is as eye-catching as a Diablo. There's simply nothing else like it on the roads. And it's yours for just over 10 grand (pounds)".

800,000 is not so bad for a cute care with a bmw 3-series engine. isa lang problema ko, san ako kukuha nun??? :(

[Chief Wahoo!]

My ideal car that is affordable here in the Philippines is a Mazda Miata. BUT I F*CKIN LOST MY CHANCE TO GET ONE BECAUSE I HAVE SH*TTY GRADES!!! :frustrated: :shout: :furious: :mad: :verymad: :grrr:

[FLY_GTi]

i drive a Proton Satria GTi. but i really, really wanted to buy a Subaru WRX STi except i was about $15,000 short so i just had to settle with what i could afford. But my ideal car is a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI Tommi Makkinen Edition.

[Nerfy]

The ideal car that I know I can afford in the future is the BMW 5 series... a BMW 530 or 540 to be exact... with Sport Package (suspension, 17-in rims, etc), Bi-Xenon Headlights and Luxury Package (Sound System, Sunroof, etc). (haha... i "built" my own in the bmw website).

Ideal coz its not too expensive (less than $50k), can be a family car, and has excellent performance and resale value. (high cost of maintenance, but that can be expected anyway).

In the meantime, Im perfectly content with my current car. :)

Definitely a great choice. Can't go wrong with the 5. I've heard the redesign for the new 5 is going to incorporate some of the design themes off of the new 7, including the controversial bigh-beltline trunk lid.

[roodypoo]

2002 Benz E500 V8 with all glass roof! Awesome!

Currently I drive a Jaguar.

[Econ_major]

a convertible. maybe a jaguar or a mercedes snk. or kaya a suv type such as the Ford ranger , Mitsubishi PAjero or Nissan Safari. all my cars should have a forrest green or dark green color.

You must mean the Mercedes SLK (Sportlich <sporty> -- Leicht <light> -- Kurz <short>). This is a great car!

Also, the green shade paint that you're talking about is more popularly known as "British Racing Green". Wonderful color, very classy!

I agree: A British-Racing-Green MB SLK would certainly make an ideal car! :)
