OT: What kind of Car do you drive? Why is it better than the car posted above you?

The SE is the performance pack right? Which gets you the LSD, an extra 10hp up to 220, better brakes, exterior trim, etc? Worth it imo

They changed it for 2018. No more performance package but the SE basically took it's place. Some small differences. I really just want the LSD for snow

Yep, that and some snow tires and you’ll be good
 
I actually considered buying an HHR SS instead of an HHR 2LT. Wish it could have been more practical for me.

2016 Chevy SS. 415 HP of bad to the bone Detroit muscle.

Montego blue '94 Mazda RX-7. Original stock. Bought it in '98 for less than $20k. 60k miles now. Sits in the garage. Kids. Sub 5 secs 0-60. Incredible handling. Tested at 0.98G on the skid pad, and it drives like it. It has done cloverleaf highway ramps at 70 coming off accelerating to 90 through the turn. Crazy torque when the big blower (#2) kicks in around 5k. Try not to be in a corner when you do it. In 4th gear, 70-105 happens in a flash. Fun. :D

The photo below isn't isn't my car but close enough. I will eventually put the bigger intercooler and straight down pipes on it. Probably some bigger brakes. An Audi Q5 2.0 is where most of my driving happens now. Nice design & handling(for a small-mid SUV), good mileage, features. Crap reliability. Last VW product for me. And my mechanic dad taught me how to take care of a car. Highlander Hybrid or MDX coming soon to replace it.

Depends. If you are LEO and I was speeding no or if I was driving like an ass and cut you off and you are mad at me then no also.

Otherwise yessir!

Definitely not LEO, I was behind you the other day switching lanes and checking out every angle of your car. Its a beauty!

If they really do go all-new and aren't just copying the Everest then it stands a chance. I'm hoping it competes with the Wrangler and has a removable top

Ford engineer has been quoted as saying it’s not the Everest, will have a removable top and Wrangler is the target (sort of). My guess and hope is that it’s like a wrangler unlimited but better on road and worse off road. That’s what I need.
 
All my bimmers went 240k miles, and were run at tracks like Lime Rock, before I sold. Latest is a
M5 - wanna drag?
 
Thanks Buddy. I’m not going to beat a Bentley but I did trade in my Honda Odyssey 2006 with 190000 miles for a 2010 E550 Benz with all the bells and whistles. Middle life crisis car at the advice of my wife who said I should drive a better car because I’m an Attorney.
I liked not having a car payment but the Honda’s sliding back doors stopped working and one would actually fall off when opened.

I have no car anymore. No need for one in Amsterdam. Parking fees are huge. You can get everywhere with trolleys, bus and train. Big expense gone from my life. Last car I owned in the states was a 1940 Mercury. Sold it right before I moved over here. Also had some Jap car I don't even remember what it was.
 
2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring. Previous vehicle was an 05 Ford Explorer. The Ford was great for New England winters but a no go for Florida. I get great gas mileage, very comfortable and with all the toys.

Have 4 but the only one that matters is the 2 door Jeep Wrangler JK 6 speed. More fun than a barrel of monkeys
 
2017 Prius, mostly driven by Mrs Zone. . 2017 Kia Sedona, great for when the kids and grand children visit. Holds 8 easily.

I wouldn't trade it for a single car so far listed in this thread.

Does it hold a lot of stuff for blue lot tailgating? That’s all I care about.
I have a boring 2011 Pilot but it is a good hauler.
 
2013 Infiniti G37X - bought certified pre-owned for half the price in 2015 with 14K miles on it. Up to 45K now, hope to drive this thing into the ground. It was my plan for my last car as well, a 2009 Maxima, until a 94 year old woman cut me off and car was totaled with under 60K miles on it.

The G37X works for me. Has some power and AWD so no issues in the snow.

The back holds the equivalent of two trunks because of the boxed out back and height of it. And the seats fold down for more I feel you need it.

Oh and the top and all four doors come off if you just want to blast good music and meet your dorky friend with a Pilot who brought all the tailgate gear.
 
1964 Honda S600. Better than any German car due to the roller bearing crank and 11,000 RPM redline.
