As a Auto mechanical technician, I really like cars and motorcycles, and now bicycles:eek: ! I've seen some nice bikes here, and I'd like to see what you drive normally, or when you need to GET to the trails!:p

Don't have a vehicle at the moment, but I'll be inheriting my mom's 2001 Mazda 626 after this semester.

Looks pretty much exactly like this...

2006 BMW 330i, 6-speed manual. It's fun to drive, but it's ultimately just transportation. My Cervelo R3, on the other hand, is my baby. She is not transportation; that's what my Specialized Allez Sport is for. I take far better care of my Cervelo than of my BMW.

Dude, if I had what I wanted I would have fixed up our 86' cutlass and put 22s on that motha. Then I'd tilt the seat back and roll like a G. But we got rid of that :lol:

Therefore, if I have anything that rolls on anything other than my energy, I'm lucky as shlt. ;)

My car is registered in Texas because i used to live there. And Louisiana has a lame law that the tax you have to pay to register the car is not like $100 like i would in Texas, here it's totaled from the sales price of your car. So thats to much money, so i keep it registered in Texas because i partially live there, plus i don't have to pass emissions, even tho a few months back my car passed emissions with almost all 0's. Which means all my work, has payed off. Now when i go back to Texas, i go back at night and do the Emissions the next morning im there so the cops do not get me. I do my registration online so they just mail me the sticker.


Edit: Look at the RAV4, notice the plate is like a tan color? Thats the new Louisiana plate.

Texas law is changed/changing and you have to pay 80% of blue book/appraisal value. No more buying a car for $10k and telling tax office it was $500. Not saying your car is worth 10K or 500,just using some figures.

I took this in a parking lot near my campus.

i had the brother car to that - a 93 sentra se-r.

nice motor and great car to drive. it was terrific for a while until i had a string of alternators and a starter die on me. and then miscellaneous egr/emissions problem that led to erratic idle... and finally the cooling system failed and the motor oveheated.

i still miss it much, though!
