Great question---what do YOU drive? I'm interested in knowing what frequent contributors to this forum drive on a daily basis.

Me? A 2007 Mercedes-Benz C230 Sport Sedan, black with gray interior.

How about you?

Rick

I have a 99 Nissan Altima SE and a 91 Miata. The Altima has been a pleasant surprise, it has 150,000 miles on it and is still tight and in great shape. The Miata is just plain sweet. It will rev all day long and it sings to me when we're out on the twisties!

2000 Nissan Maxima SE

I plan to keep my Nissan (so far it has only with 42,000 KM) a loooonnnngggg time so I can spend my car money on the little guys. Most interesting car I owned was a '65 Mustang convertible - biodegradeable. First car was a '62 Valiant V-200 2dr hardtop - a sweet little car that took me through university days. My wife has a new Honda CRV and that gets us around town nicely.

My daily driver is a Ford Focus Estate and it's a very rare spec. An ex-Ford company car it has every toy that was listed apart from headlight washers, this on top of the Ghia spec which it started with. It's now done 81,000 miles and I intend to keep it. The old ones are 1956 and 1957 Hillman Minxes. The push-bike is a Muddy Fox...actually that should be 'Dusty Fox' as I haven't ridden it for ages.

Dirk and I, are now related...

... two weeks ago my wife's 99 Grand Marquis (with only 60,000 miles) was replaced by a spanking new black Magnum. I shyed away from the mighty SRT-8, so our Mr. Magz packs the modest but venerable Hemi.

My older car is still the 1995 Impala SS (I had for years) in Dark Cherry Metallic with original 39,000 on the clock, and sinking her gas pedal into the carpet never fails to bring a broad smile on my face, although Maggie now offers some serious competition.

Indeed. And it's very infectious - once you drive one, you can never let her go.
