What are you driving? Include photo

I like vehicles, so it's fun to see the variety in this thread... Happy highways, guys!

2017 Porsche Cayman S in the driveway; in the garage is a 2016 Mercedes C450 AMG that my wife drives and a 2012 Smart ForTwo that is my everyday around-town rig.

This is my toy, not my daily driver, but so much fun when I go for a drive. It's a limited edition Sport Elise (only 50 made) with some track focused mods from the factory (better suspension mainly). The original owner spent some bucks on modifying the engine. Supercharger and intercooler, bigger injectors, race head forged pistons, custom exhaust, etc.... at one time this under 2000 lb car was pushing 319 HP to the rear wheels...now dialed back a bit, but it's still a rocket.

My daily is an Audi A3 TDI that I'm about to sell back due to the diesel scandal. Not postitve what I will replace it with, but strongly considering a Mini Cooper S (Manual trans). They look like so much fun.

I also have a Honda Element that I will never get rid of. I love that car, as dorky as it is.

Audi A5 Cabriolet 2013. More of a luxury Town Car than a sports car but nice never the less. (The photo is a generic one off the internet but mine is the same

Sweet car and sweet pic!

Thanks. That little car has been with me for over twenty years, including almost a decade of competition driving (it's heavily modified). Just waiting for the weather to warm up a bit to get it out of the garage.
 
I love cars as much as old cameras...:) Here's three of my current German cars.

Lots of fun in this thread.


280,000+ miles on this one



1965. Summer Car once the salt is off the roads



1974 850 Commando. 2018 is the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the Norton Commando, as it happens.


1982 Moto Guzzi V50 III 2600 miles


The Land Cruiser, the 356, and the Norton I pretty much restored myself. The Guzzi, I lucked into.

Mechanical things, designed and built to a purpose, not a price point, by engineers with focused souls, not focus groups..
Probably why I like older film cameras more than newer appliance feeling cameras. Personally.

One might say that I have a vehicle plenitude... And an obsession with two-wheelers in general. :cool:
These days, I ride the bicycles most of the time for daily forays into the world.

2000 3.0L Diesel Hilux Dual Cab 4x4 in green. My daughter named her "Green Rose", or "Greeny" for short. Nothing fancy, and no danger of a speeding ticket, just a dependable workhorse. Over 350,000 kms and still going strong.

Here she is on Moreton Island, lapping up the sand.

The 4Runner is my working vehicle and the other is the fun one...
Plus there's a 1994 Mustang GT in the mix...I drive it around town instead of the 4Runner...
