ballinnnn where did you get that?

[buh_buh]

Its my dad's car. He only needs 1 car, so I'm just driving it for the winter. Saves me a couple bucks on finding a beater this year.

Summer: '93 Civic
Winter: '91 Pathfinder

I noticed how a lot of people would have considered my summer vehicle a winter beater... :( Too bad I'm still a poor, starving student.

+2 for the all year around car.

Oddly enough, it's the same car, only mine is a 1999 Honda Prelude SE. I wish I can afford another car for a beater right now but ah well, this car will soon enough be a beater when I get a brand new car in a year or 2.

[JordanAndrew]

^^^ woa I didn't even notice that, thanks bro!
I just got this car last week so I haven't really had the chance to change anything from when I bought it.

[zieg]

summer: 93 240.. winter: 93 240.. :(

I really need a beater. Nowhere to park it though..

[Rat Fink]

[MackDawg]

99 Saturn SL 2 with 250,000kms

I just finished doing a bunch of work on it Friday after work (oil, rad, plugs, and new brake rotors) and then blew out the back tire on Deer foot Sunday morning at 4 am after just buying the prick the previous weekend.

Bad luck has stricken me early

[heavyD]

1993 MR2 Turbo - Threw on some new winter tires. Should be fun.

There's no '99 SEs. Its probably a base. Congrats on the new car.
