Is the point system like with airlines? Like, “sir, for 10.000 points, you are eligible for this bubble gum!” ? 😁

Ah man I miss my first car, just got my license back in 2015 and my parents call me outside to my new car a 2015 BMW 550i

Biggest piece of shit to ever roll it's tires on the earth, it spent more time in the BMW dealership fixing high pressure fuel pumps and Fuel injector replacements every 1500 miles. Got rid of it a year or two after going off to university because it was just fucking annoying how unreliable it was and ended up replacing it with a 2008 Lexus GS460 (I also miss this car, totalled it 2 years ago after hitting a tree head on at like ~40mph)


Been working from home so I haven't really needed a car but I'm looking at getting a 2021 F150 limited just bc I don't punch the gas now days so sporty isn't really something I'm concerned about


RIP BMW 550I you're probably making someone else a miserable bastard but damn did it feel good to out accelerate my boys in their Charger RTs

I bought an almost perfect condition JDM 1986 Mazda Familia GT for $200. It had every option , full recaro interior, tilt/slide roof, cruise control, A/C and electronically adjustable suspension. Drove it for 3 years and sold it for $80 and a carton of beer, at the time it was just another used old japanese hatch but I drove it from Sydney to Melbourne every other weekend and up in the mountains during ski season. I miss that car.

488 Spider in yellow, sold it after getting a F12 in red.

in retrospect nothing beats a convertible not even a v12.

Bought a Ford Escort RS1600i in 1994 it was a 1983 A reg with about 15,000 miles on. Paid £1200. Was a beauty with a lovely Recaro interior, for some reason I can't remember I sold it a couple of years later for about the same money. They can currently sell for up to 60K. (photo is not my car but exactly how it looked)

My '65 Ford Thunderbird. Was an absolute beast. Sold it when I bought my current house - just didn't have room for it.

Regret parting with an E Type Jag which I had when I was in Med School.
And many years later a Toyota Supra Twin Turbo - quite possibly the best car I have ever owned. Hmmmm apart from my current MB SL maybe!

Selling my BMW 328i e36 was a tough choice that I now regret. I had invested much time and effort into fixing the car and it was somehow a love-hate relationship.

What a Car.

E36 and E46 3-series are among the most beautiful Compact Sedans ever.

And what a Straight 6 cylinders, elastic, powerful, lovely sound !

I'm a massive Car fan...but now, between crossovers, EVs, and SUV....time to spend more money on Watches and Hi-Fi...and less on cars.

BTW My personal Car is a lovely 3.0 Jag X-Type....with rare and astonishing Cartier upholstery (no kidding)
