Your other car (Actual or Possibility)

[profiler]

Our other car is a 2008 BMW E92 330 D. Had it since new. It's on 127,000 miles. Only normal servicing performed plus brake discs etc. It still puts out 250 + BHP, and when I drive sensible, I can get 49 MPG. Only real gripes for this car are 1) Orange peel on the paint from factory (our CX-5 is just as bad) and 2) E92 manual gearbox has been clunky since new and has never really got any better. Our older E46 has a gearbox is smoother than silky the silk worms silk pyjamas (and it's done 148,000 miles).

We don't buy many cars but when we do, we tend to hang on to 'em.
Along with our CX5, we've got the following:

2013 GMC Terrain SLT (daughters car)
2008 Ford F250 XLT (my work truck)
2001 BMW 530i Sport 5 speed (wife's daily driver)
1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9 limited (my "poor mans' Corvette")

2007 VW Rabbit is the wife's car. She does 100 miles almost daily. Torn between the 2015 GTI and GTD (diesel) that's supposed to come later. Any thoughts?

Look at the tech of the new 50mpg hybrid Honda Accord. Its ahead of its time. It has no transmission (unlike the Prius with a $9000 transmission). Its full time electric with a gas engine that generates electricity when needed. Better MPG than a Prius and it looks like any other sedan.

I'll check it out but we'd like to stick with the hot hatch segment.

We sold our '14 CX-5 about 5 months ago and prior to that '12 Juke SL.
Our current cars are: wife drives '11 328XiT and her other car is '11 M3 vert
My daily is now a '11 C4S and my garage queen is my Audi R8

My cars are listed under my avatar. RX-7 and CX-5 were purchased new. Traded my '06 Mazdaspeed6 GT in on the CX, it was one of the hardest things I've had to do.

My bikes:

1985 Honda VF500F Interceptor (ex-racebike)
1985 Yamaha RZ500
1984 Honda VF750F Interceptor (bought new)
1987 Honda CBR1000F Hurricane (bought new)

Everything I own is modified to some extent. Right now the Miata is probably the most modified (supercharger etc).

You own some my favorite bikes from the 80's. I had an '82 Seca 550 and '84 GPz 550. I always wanted one of those beautiful red,white, & blue Interceptors! The VF Ascots were cool too.
Thanks for sparking the memories!

Did you look at the mirage 2015 is coming out.

 

[CX-SV]

My Vitus road bike is hanging in the garage (light blue).

 

[mazdaspeedmyk]

I have a 2010 Mazdaspeed 3.

A 2007 Ninja 650r.

And a sweet Barris Kustoms Nirve Beach Cruiser.

 

[Chris_Top_Her]

My "cheap" ($229 may be considered a cheap bike but not to me lol) walmart bought bike lol

I also plan to get a mirage after I either can trade my cx-5 for a diesel, or boost it.
I don't want to rip off someone's style but this guy has his modded well.

 

[Chris_Top_Her]

I remember my dad took me to Yakima when we lived in WA. Never had seen a desert like area prior lol.

I'd like a Toyota Tacoma 4x4 Double Cab with a hard shell tonneau cover. That would meet my family's needs nicely. It can tow 6500lbs, plenty of trailer choices with that power.

Think I got 'ya beat. Just retired my '91 Mazda B-2600i Cab Plus I bought new a few weeks before I got my CX-5. Daughter is using the wife's original '92 Camry I4.
The family car is a '10 Camry Hybrid which is the wife's main ride. Nine payments left...

In addition to my CX-5, I have a Mercedes Benz GLK 350 4Matic, and, a 1948 Chevrolet Fleetmaster Town Sedan (stock).
