What is your favorite car?  This could be something you already own, or your dream car.  My favorite car is my Mitsubishi Lancer 2008, which I've had for about a month now.  This pic is not my exact car, but a car similar to mine.

Well, I can't drive yet (can't afford to learn right now) but all I really want when I get a car is a Toyota pickup truck, since Top Gear (British car show) proved it was virtually indestructible through various mad tests, which included things like setting it on fire, putting it on top of a set of flats that were imploded, tying it onto a boat platform as the sea came in, driving it through an office, and just simply crashing it into a tree.

It looks like this now, but it still works!

Yeah Toyota trucks are nice.  That's amazing the amount of abuse that one of those can take.  Wow!  I like the Toyota 4-Runner.  I think they look awesome.  A friend of mine has a 1998 4-Runner, in top shape, it is nice.  I wouldn't complain if I had one (a 4-Runner that is).  Another friend of mine has a Toyota Tacoma - I believe he bought it new - probably a 2007.  It's blue in color and nice as well.

Cool cars Chaz.  I like the muscle car on the top.  If I had the money and time, I'd like to buy an old Mustang that's been completely fixed up.  You remember the Shelby Mustang from the movie "Gone in 60 Seconds"?  That was an awesome car!

Yeah you're right.  I have a friend who is an auto body guy and he rebuilds old muscle cars - and does an awesome job I might add.  He built a Shelby clone for a customer - wow, is all I have to say!

Yeah KITT is awesome, Heru.  I got the first season of Knight Rider about a month ago, and have yet to finish it.  I love the theme song for Knight Rider - it's pretty cool.

That is a sweet car.  I see a few here in Canada, but only a few.  They are available more widely, I believe in the UK.  The steering wheel is on the right side.  It is funny to see people driving them in Canada when we drive on the right side.  I believe Paul Walker was driving one in the movie "Too Fast, Too Furious."

I'm probably getting another Mercedes-Benz C220 CDI (from the W203 series) once I get my license. It's been my rental car when on a trial license, for the last year, and it drives like a dream. With only 150HK, you'll be surprised to find that you'll easily get 340NM in effect. It's got the best road grip of any car I've driven and it looks just sexy with a tooled black leather interior.

Admittedly, it's not sexy from the outside, but man . . . diving down behind that wheel made driving lessons a dream.

Another Mercedes-Benz?  Wow, thats quite the car.  You cannot reach much higher than BMW's or Mercedes.  Quite costly too.  Definitely a symbol of class, style and elegance.
