Thread: What do you do that goes against the CL herd?

  1. 02-24-2010 04:07 PM #1
    I have a Nurburgring sticker on my car, and haven't driven the car on the track.

    Been there, walked the F1 course, bought the sticker.

    Deal with it and give me your examples!

    I take my 4.0L and actually make it a 3.8L through various methods.

    I really like hybrids. I have no interest in watching motorsports. I don't equate a car's worth with its transmission. Oh, I also like cars rather than badges, transmissions, or dash surfaces.

    I purchased a 4.0L that wasn't a Jeep

    My Datsun has a fart can on it.

    There I said it. I bought the car like that, never bothered to change it due to a dozen or more other things I wanted to tend to with the car first and the fact that it's stainless. Plus it actually sounds good because the rest of the exhaust is un-restricted.

    Future plans are to change it out in favour of something different.

    I have a German license plate and a vanity plate on a lowered E30 with some Europe-only parts I put on simply because I came across them and wanted to play with the wiring of the car.

    I've also been to 4 or 5 NASCAR and 1 CASCAR race.

    I would do Danica Patrick regardless of her racing abilities and chest size.

    I have previously leased a car.

    I beat a Audi R8 away from a light in my Smart this morning, but I'm not sure he was aware it was a race.

    Ditto. I also think that insulting someone else's car is dumb.

    I like and respect hybrids.

    I like and want to own crossovers.

    I drive a Pontiac.

    I would happily drive either a hybrid or a diesel, whichever was priced and equipped right.

    I thought that's what 401K's are for? Then just save the remaining gas money by making your wife walk to work in the snow.

    I like going fast in a straight line, and just about everything I do to my car is for the purpose of bettering it's ability to do so. Not really in the form of drag racing, my car rarely sees the track. Highway pulls are my thing.

    I have no bias towards any car or car manufacturer and I don't get hyped up about AWD.
